North Peak Resources announced that diamond drilling has commenced at its owned Prospect Mountain Mine Complex in Nevada. Initial drilling will test the main sulphide MT anomaly following an updated three-dimensional interpretation and revised targeting. Historical hole PM23-001 intersected narrow massive-sulphide zones grading 9.5% zinc and 221.6 g/t silver over 1.0 metre, and 7.3% zinc and 54.6 g/t silver over 1.9 metres. The refined anomaly retains a strike length of more than 1.5 kilometres, and drill collars and orientations have been revised.
