Tertiary Minerals PLC (AIM:TYM, OTC:TTIRF) managing director Richard Belcher takes Proactive's Stephen Gunnion through the company’s latest update on its Mushima North Project in Zambia. Belcher discussed results from the recently completed phase two drilling program at Target A1, which extended mineralisation by 350 metres and remains open to the north and at depth. The mineralised zone is approximately 300 metres wide and lies near surface, just below the soil profile.
Belcher noted that broad intervals of 0.2%–0.3% copper include sections grading 0.5%–0.8%, which are in line with grades seen in the domes region, a key exploration area for other companies. He said: “These grades are really in the ranges of what we see up in the domes region. What a lot of other exploration companies are chasing.” Silver is also emerging as a significant metal in the mix, alongside zinc, prompting further metallurgical and mineralogical work to assess the polymetallic potential.
He also provided an update on Konkola West, where partner KoBold Metals is drilling the second hole, now past 2,000 metres, targeting the expected ore zone. Upcoming milestones include assay results from Mushima North and further progress at Konkola West within the next one to two months.
