| ABSTRACT: | Vancouver, Canada – Tinka Resources Limited (“Tinka” or the “Company”) (TSXV & BVL: TK) (OTCPK: TKRFF) is pleased to announce assay results for seven recent holes from its ongoing resource stepout drill program at the Company’s 100%-owned Ayawilca project, central Peru. Six holes are reported from the West Ayawilca area (holes A18-117, 120 to 122, 126, 129) and one from the Central area (A18-127). Hole A18-129 has intersected exceptional grades of zinc sulphide mineralization at West Ayawilca in a new setting for mineralization at Ayawilca. A mineralized interval of 10.4 metres grading 44.0% zinc occurs within a zone consisting of more than 90% zinc sulphides (sphalerite). This is the highest-grade zinc intersection ever encountered at Ayawilca over a significant interval. The high-grade mineralization occurs immediately beneath phyllite (metamorphic rock) within a repetition of the Pucara limestone formation which is favourable for mineralization and typically found above the phyllite. The mineralized interval is interpreted to be flat-dipping and close to true thickness. This is the first time that Tinka has tested the proposition that there may be a repetition of the mineralized Pucara limestone under the phyllite encountered at the base of most other holes at Ayawilca. It is notable that such an outstanding zinc intercept has been drilled in the first repetition of the Pucara limestone encountered thus far. Additional drill holes are planned to test for the continuation of the high grade mineralization in this repeated limestone. | |
