Europacific Metals Acquires 100 % Interest in EVX Portugal for the Borba 2 Copper-Gold Properties in Portugal
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / May 4, 2023 / Europacific Metals Inc (TSXV:EUP) the ("Company" or "Europacific") is pleased to announce that it has signed an agreement with European Electric Metals Inc. ("EVX"). Whereby, Europacific acquired the remaining 30 % equity interest (for a total of 100% equity interest) in EVX Portugal (a Europacific and EVX subsidiary), a private Portugal based company, that holds the legal exploration rights from the Portugal Government on the Borba 2 ("Borba 2") exploration properties, covering approximately 328 square kilometers in the Alentejo region in Southern Portugal.
温哥华,BC/ACCESSWIRE/2023年5月4日/EuroPacific Metals Inc.(TSXV:EUP)(“公司“或”欧洲太平洋“)很高兴地宣布,它已与欧洲电气金属公司(”EVX“)签署了一项协议,据此,EuroPacific收购了EVX葡萄牙公司(EVX葡萄牙公司的子公司)剩余30%的股权(总计100%股权),EVX葡萄牙公司是一家总部位于葡萄牙的私营公司,持有葡萄牙政府对葡萄牙南部Alentejo地区Borba 2(”Borba 2“)勘探物业的合法探矿权,该项目占地约328平方公里。
Borba 2 projects have a well-documented potential to host precious and base metals mineralization often enhanced by the presence of abundant Au and /or Cu mineral occurrences in shear zones and in epithermal systems associated with intra-Ordovician volcanics. The most prominent project is the Miguel Vacas open pit copper deposit which produced 1.9 million lbs of copper from the oxide zone of a shear zone in schists at least 2000 meters along strike and 10 to 20 meters in width.
Borba 2项目有充分的证据证明有可能容纳贵金属和贱金属矿化,在剪切带和与奥陶纪内火山有关的浅成热液系统中存在丰富的金和/或铜矿物,往往会增强这一潜力。最突出的项目是Miguel Vacas露天铜矿,它从沿走向至少2000米、宽度10至20米的片岩中剪切带的氧化带中生产了190万磅铜。
Borba 2 includes a total of four separate projects including three past producing mines as follows.
Borba 2总共包括四个独立的项目,包括三个过去生产的矿山具体如下。
Miguel Vacas- Past Producing Copper Mine
Miguel Vacas-过去生产铜矿
The copper mine last operated in 1986 and has produced at an average grade of 1.2-1.4% Cu. Historical near surface drilling (60 to 71.63m) intercepted 1.79 % Cu over 10.54m including 2.29% Cu over 7.30 m.
该铜矿上一次运营是在1986年,铜的平均品位为1.2-1.4%。历史近地表钻井(60~71.63米)在10.54米以上截获1.79%的铜,其中7.30米以上截获2.29%的铜。
The project remains open for exploration.
该项目仍在开放进行勘探。
Mostardeira Copper-Gold Mine
莫斯塔代拉铜金矿
This Cu-Au mine area, located approximately 2 km south of the town of Estremoz represents a wide WSW-ESE shear zone that is developed for at least 700 m along strike and is open into both directions. This shear zone has been historically mined for Cu with most of the mining works concentrated along a thin high-grade Cu zone (<2m) averaging over 5% Cu.
该铜金矿区位于埃斯特雷莫兹镇以南约2公里处,是一条宽阔的西南向-东南向剪切带,沿走向发展至少700米,并向两个方向开放。该剪切带历史上曾开采过铜,大部分采矿工作集中在平均含铜量超过5%的薄的高品位铜矿带(
Mineralization is hosted by Silurian and Devonian metasediments. Channel sampling by Rio Narcea (2006) has intercepted the following mineralized intervals: 2.60m grading 4.15 g/t Au, 0.40% Cu including 0.60m grading 11.20 g/t Au and 0.65 % Cu and another 3.60m interval grading 2.40 g/t Au, 0.82 % Cu and 80 g/t Ag. The average grade for the total of 34 samples analysed was 1.54 g/t Au, 22 g/t Ag and 0.25% Cu with a maximum of 11.20 g/t Au and a minimum of 0.10 g/t Au.
矿化赋存于志留系和泥盆系的变质沉积中。Rio Narcea(2006)的河道取样截获了如下矿化区间:2.60m品位4.15g/t Au,0.40%铜,其中0.60m品位11.20g/t Au和0.65%铜;另外3.60m区间品位2.40g/t Au,0.82%Cu和80g/t Ag。所分析的34个样品的平均品位分别为:Au 1.54g/t,Ag 22g/t,铜0.25%,Au最高11.20g/t,最低0.10g/t。
The project is open for exploration.
该项目对勘探开放。
Bugalho Copper-Gold Mine
布加略铜金矿
Dump samples of silicified and sheared acid tuffs from the Bugalho mine area assay up to 10.97 g/t Au, 5.36% Cu and 20 g/t Ag.
Mineralization can be mapped about 5 km along strike and includes three main veins up to 1.3m thick within a several meter wide shear zone.
从Bugalho矿区排出的硅化和剪切的酸性凝灰岩样品中,Au含量高达10.97g/t,铜含量高达5.36%,银含量高达20g/t。
矿化可沿走向绘制约5公里,并包括三个厚达1.3米的主脉,位于几米宽的剪切带内。
The project is open for exploration
该项目开放进行勘探。
Almagreira Gold Prospect
阿尔马格雷拉金矿远景
This area Drilling has been identified by Rio Tinto during the early eighties and limited trenching and drilling have indicated the presence of gold mineralization associated with clay-sericite-silica alteration zones associated with a ENE-WSW fracture zone and represents an epithermal system identified in this sector hosted by brecciated acid volcanics and dolomites.
这一地区的钻探是力拓在80年代初发现的,有限的开挖和钻探表明,存在与与ENE-WSW断裂带有关的粘土-绢云岩-硅质蚀变带有关的金矿化,并代表了该地区发现的以角砾状酸性火山岩和白云岩为主体的低温热液系统。
Historical drilling intercepted an interval of 5.45 m grading 1.53 g/t Au, including 2.47m grading 2.44 g/t Au from hole PAM-01. The highest individual value obtained came from a gossanous quartz-dolomite altered marble grading 5.77 g/t Au over an intercept of 0.75m. Hole Pam-02 intercepted an interval of 2m grading 3.7 g/t Au. The mineralized zone coincides with sections of intense silica-carbonate alteration with several massive gossan zones and localized fresh sulphide dissemination (chalcopyrite and pyrite).
历史钻探从PAM-01孔截获5.45m品位1.53g/t Au,其中2.47m品位2.44g/t。获得的最高个体价值来自于一块石英白云石蚀变大理岩,其金品位为5.77g/t,截距为0.75m。Pam-02孔截距2m,品位3.7g/t Au。矿化带与强烈的硅碳酸盐蚀变带相吻合,有几个块状铁帽带和局部的新鲜硫化物(黄铜矿和黄铁矿)侵入。
The project is open for exploration.
