Core Insights - InZinc Mining Ltd. has reported significant exploration results from its Indy Sedex project, indicating a 40% extension of the mineralized trend at the B-9 Zone, with high-grade intersections of zinc, lead, and silver [1][3][11] Exploration Results - The recent drilling has confirmed that the B-9 mineralized trend extends 200 meters north, increasing the total length from 450 meters to 650 meters, with potential for further expansion [3][11] - Drill hole IB25-029 intersected 11.0% Zn, 2.3% Pb, and 27.1 g/t Ag over 3.0 meters, located 80 meters north of a previous high-grade intercept [7][9] - Additional drill holes IB25-034 and IB25-036 also reported mineralization, with IB25-034 showing 3.45% Zn, 0.27% Pb, and 1.84 g/t Ag over 2.89 meters [5][7] Gallium Discovery - A sample from hole IB25-029 revealed the presence of gallium, with a grade of 4.46 ppm, alongside high concentrations of zinc and lead [4][15] - Gallium is associated with sphalerite, the primary zinc mineral in Sedex deposits, and is significant as a critical mineral [18][19] Geological Context - The Indy project covers 200 square kilometers and is located in a region with under-explored strata similar to the Selwyn Basin, known for its mineral wealth [21][27] - The mineralization at Indy is typical of Sedex deposits, which often include significant by-products such as silver and critical minerals [22][27] Future Exploration Potential - The newly identified northern extension of mineralization remains open for exploration, with untested geochemical and geophysical anomalies extending at least 750 meters to the north of the latest drill hole [14][19]
