Collective Mining reported that two deep directional holes at the Apollo system of its Guayabales project in Colombia identified a 100-metre northern extension to the breccia body and extended mineralization 170 metres vertically on Apollo’s northern side. Hole APC172-D2 intersected 141.40 metres grading 0.04% zinc from 924 metres below surface, including 38.00 metres at 0.06% zinc; APC172-D1 intersected 97.15 metres grading 0.02% zinc from 929 metres below surface.
Infill hole APC160-D3 returned 171.65 metres at 0.09% zinc from 575 metres below surface, including 44.90 metres at 0.17% zinc. Hole APC160-D4 returned 83.00 metres at 0.21% zinc from 528 metres below surface, including 15.30 metres at 0.44% zinc. Apollo remains an exploration-stage system, and assays for follow-up hole APC180-D1 are pending; reported true widths range from 60% to 100% of intercept lengths.
