ABSTRACT:Vancouver, Canada – Tinka Resources Limited (“Tinka” or the “Company”) (TSXV & BVL: TK) (OTCPK: TKRFF) is pleased to announce assay results for a further nine drill holes from the Company’s ongoing drill program at its 100%-owned Ayawilca zinc project, central Peru. All holes were testing for mineralization outside of the existing mineral resource boundaries (Ayawilca Inferred Mineral Resource estimate: 42.7 million tonnes grading 6.0% Zn, 0.2% lead, 17 g/t silver and 79 g/t indium; Nov 8, 2017). Four holes (107, 109, 110 and 111) were drilled at the new Zone 3 discovery area, part of a large geophysical target believed to be the northeastern extension of Ayawilca. An additional five holes were drilled at South, West and Central Ayawilca. Drilling of hole A18-112 at Zone 3 has now commenced, with a second drill rig expected to start up once the wet weather conditions improve in March. High-grade zinc mineralization intersected in holes A18-110 & A18-111 at Zone 3 is associated with flatdipping massive sulphide replacements of the Pucará limestone and lower Goyllar sandstone, similar in style to the zinc mineralization at South and West Ayawilca. In addition, high-grade vein-style polymetallic mineralization (zinc-lead-silver-tin) has been intersected in phyllite rocks at Zone 3 (hole A17-109), which represents a new style of mineralization encountered at Ayawilca for the first time. The high-grade polymetallic veins are believed to be feeder structures for the zinc and tin mineralization in the overlying limestones.
