VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / June 24, 2024 / Q Precious and Battery Metals Corp. ("QMET" or the "Company") (CSE:QMET)(OTC PINK:BTKRF)(FRA:ONB) is pleased to announce that the company has now mobilized a diamond drill onto the La Corne South project located north of Val d'Or, Quebec. The drilling is scheduled to commence in the following days.
The first drill hole of this current campaign is positioned to test a TDEM conductive target and magnetic high that is coincident with sulphide mineralization intercepted in historic diamond drilling, containing significant copper, silver, with some zinc and gold values returned from core sampling (Falconbridge report GM 62134, also see QMET news releases dated April 16 and June 20, 2024).
The geologic team, including Explo-Logik Inc. located in Val d'Or, will monitor the drilling to identify and sample mineralized intercepts, and to continue interpretation for targeting of future drill holes. Drill core logging and sampling will take place at the Explo-Logik facility in Val d'Or. The geologic team has recently discovered exposures of pillow basalt lavas with veining and disseminated sulphides indicative of Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (VMS) style mineralization to the immediate south of the area currently targeted for drilling. The regional geology combined with local indicators suggests strong potential for massive sulphides.
