| ABSTRACT: | Vancouver, Canada – Tinka Resources Limited (“Tinka” or the “Company”) (TSXV: TK) (OTCPK: TKRFF) is pleased to announce results of five additional drill holes from its 100% owned Ayawilca zinc project in central Peru. All five holes are from the South Ayawilca area. Hole A17-063 has returned one of the best intersections of zinc mineralization at Ayawilca to date, 47.7 metres grading 11.3% zinc, also with high indium credits. Hole A17-063 lies 200 metres northeast of the South Ayawilca discovery hole A17-056, which intersected two high grade zinc sulphide zones including 17.9 metres at 11.6 % zinc and 51.9 metres at 10.1% zinc (see Table 1). Drill results reported so far in 2017 have defined high grade zinc mineralization at South Ayawilca over a northeast-southwest strike length of 370 metres, connecting the South Ayawilca discovery area to the Central Ayawilca zinc resource. Dr. Graham Carman, Tinka´s President and CEO, stated: “These latest drill results continue to show strong zinc mineralization in our step-out drill program at South Ayawilca. There now appears to be continuity of the zinc mineralization between South & Central Ayawilca, which could add an additional 500 metres of mineralization along strike extension to our existing resources. Massive to semi-massive sulphides occur throughout the mineralized sequence. We are finding that the zinc mineralization is zoned around iron sulphides (mostly pyrrhotite with lesser pyrite) which may also host tin mineralization (note: tin assays are pending). We have also encountered an important northeast-trending fault, and can confirm that post-mineral movement has displaced mineralization laterally which opens additional exploration opportunities.” | |
