英國倫敦/ACCESSWIRE/2024 年 2 月 21 日/英國 Meridian Mining。S（多倫多證券交易所股票代碼：MNO）（法蘭克福/TradeGate: 2mm）（OTCQB: MRRDF）（“子午線” 或 “公司”）欣然宣佈，正在進行的預可行性研究（“PFS”）鑽探計劃繼續在其Cabacal Au-Cu-Ag礦牀（“項目”）取得強勁成果。具有內部高級核心的多個寬區域，例如 CD-400 的 25.8m @ 1.4 g/t auEQ 包括 9.5m @ 2.9 g/t auEQ 和 CD-399 的 153m @ 1.7 g/t auEQ，包括 5.1m @ 4.0 g/t auEQ，包括 5.1m @ 4.0 g/t auEQ1（“圖 1”）。正在進行的PFS鑽探計劃仍在繼續，目的是將礦井內資源轉換爲更高的分類，並增強對Cabacal旗艦項目的信心。
The Company is also reporting the results of the geotechnical studies that have potential to increase the Cabaçal's pit wall angles that would deliver a meaningful reduction in the strip ratio.
該公司還報告了岩土工程研究的結果，這些研究有可能增加Cabacal的坑壁角度，從而顯著降低帶材比例。
The northwestern limit of Cabaçal deposit remains open with a new cupriferous gossan outcrop defined ("Figure 1"). Further results from Cabaçal and Santa Helena are pending.
Cabacal礦牀的西北邊界仍然開放，並定義了新的銅質高山露頭（“圖1”）。卡巴卡爾和聖海倫娜的進一步結果尚待確定。

Mr. Gilbert Clark, CEO, comments: "These broad zones of open pitable mineralization, are the economic foundations of the industry leading Cabaçal economics, demonstrated in our 2023 PEA. Cabaçal's forward momentum continues with our geotechnical studies indicating good potential for steepening the pit walls, (which may lower the strip ratio, and deliver a reciprocal economic benefit in the up-coming PFS). Finding a gossan outcropping at Cabaçal's northwestern limit indicates that even after 2km of resource delineation success, near-mine extensions remain to be tested. When I look at the greater picture, I see tremendous potential for Cabaçal to emerge as another world-class Latin American VMS camp.
首席執行官吉爾伯特·克拉克先生評論說： “這些廣闊的可開採礦化區域是行業領先的Cabacal經濟學的經濟基礎，我們的2023年PEA證明了這一點。Cabacal的前進勢頭仍在繼續，我們的岩土工程研究表明，加固坑牆的潛力巨大（這可能會降低帶材比例，並在即將到來的PFS中帶來互惠的經濟利益）。在Cabacal的西北邊界發現一處岩石露頭表明，即使成功劃定了2公里的資源，近地雷的延伸仍有待測試。從更大的角度來看，我看到了Cabacal成爲另一個世界級的拉丁美洲VMS營地的巨大潛力。

The results form part of broader zones of mineralization (Table 1) and continue to improve modelling of grade continuity. Results show robust levels of copper mineralization at the lower contact which will improve modelling of grade continuity.
這些結果構成了更廣泛的礦化區域的一部分（表 1），並繼續改進品位連續性建模。結果顯示，較低接觸點的銅礦化水平很高，這將改善品位連續性的建模。
Copper-stained gossaniferous exposure was observed at the limits of the CNWE, within a band of magnetite banded iron formation. The recognition of this stratigraphic unit is of great interest, as a potential favourable host unit to the gold overprint event. Some of Brazil's best gold deposits are hosted by banded iron units (Rio das Velhas greenstone belt, "Quadrilátero Ferrífero").
在CNWE的極限範圍內，在磁鐵礦帶狀鐵形成帶狀鐵的形成帶內觀察到銅染的哥薩尼弗羅暴露。人們對這個地層學單位的認可引起了人們的極大興趣，因爲它是黃金套印事件的潛在有利主辦單位。巴西一些最好的金礦牀由帶狀鐵礦牀保存（里約達斯維拉斯綠巖帶，“Quadrila'tero Ferriero”）。

The drilling in the mine area provides for further validation of the mine workings and the extensive open pitable mineralization left in the higher-grade pillars. In the mine area, as part of the PFS validation program, the Company is also making additional efforts to locate a number of missing historical holes, particularly those reported and mapped in the Southern Copper Zone. These holes are not in Meridian's modern drill hole data base but host multiple assays of high-grade >5.5g/t Au (including visible gold), and high-grade copper >3.5% Cu. A final program may be undertaken to target these copper-gold zones as they represent potential zones where an under-call of the resource Cabaçal may exist.
礦區的鑽探爲進一步驗證礦山運作以及高等級礦柱中留下的大量露天礦化提供了進一步的驗證。在礦區，作爲PFS驗證計劃的一部分，該公司還在努力尋找一些歷史遺漏的漏洞，尤其是南部銅區報告和繪製的漏洞。這些孔不在 Meridian 的現代鑽孔數據庫中，但可以對高品位>5.5g/t 金（包括可見金）和銅含量大於 3.5% 的高品位銅進行多次檢測。可以針對這些銅金區域實施最後的計劃，因爲它們是Cabacal可能存在資源需求不足的潛在區域。
The forward program will particularly focus infilling areas of where resources remain inferred to unclassified. The Company has successfully executed a number of holes at low angles following adaptations to the small footprint rig, where topographic access has been more restricted.
前瞻性計劃將特別側重於填補資源仍被推斷爲未保密的領域。該公司在對佔地面積較小的鑽機進行了改造後，成功地鑽了許多低角度鑽孔，該鑽機的地形通道受到更多限制。
Cabaçal Pit Geotechnical Study
Cabacal Pit 岩土工程研究
As part of the data generation requirements for its pre-feasibility study of the Cabaçal project, Meridian has commissioned the independent geotechnical consultancy, Fundação Luiz Englert, to undertake a geotechnical study of the Cabaçal pit in order to deliver enhanced confidence to the assumptions that were used in the Cabaçal preliminary economic study completed in March 2023.
作爲Cabacal項目預可行性研究數據生成要求的一部分，Meridian已委託獨立岩土工程諮詢公司Fundacao Luiz Englert對卡巴卡爾礦坑進行岩土工程研究，以增強2023年3月完成的Cabacal初步經濟研究中使用的假設的可信度。
Six dedicated geotechnical holes were drilled as part of the 2023 project development campaign, and fifty-nine specific resource development holes have been geotechnically logged ("Figure 2") using a template recommended by the Company's Brazilian consultancy, with logging ongoing in parallel with the resource development program.
作爲2023年項目開發活動的一部分，鑽了六個專門的岩土工程孔，並使用該公司巴西諮詢公司推薦的模板對59個特定的資源開發洞進行了岩土工程測繪（“圖2”），並與資源開發計劃同時進行測繪。
Conservative pit wall angles of 48 degrees were assumed for the PEA in the absence of specific geotechnical data. Mining consultants GE21 have reviewed the outcomes of the geotechnical studies and assessments indicate optionality to increase the global hanging wall in the Cabaçal pit up to 54 degrees (a 12.5% steepening of the pit wall). New data will be reviewed and fed into the Cabaçal PFS. A reduction in the volume of waste rock offers scope to improve the stripping ratio for the project. Mining lower volumes of waste rock would benefit the operating costs for the project as well as result in smaller areas required for the storage of waste rock. Final assumptions will be reviewed with the advancement of the drilling program in the lead up to the pre-feasibility.
在沒有特定的岩土工程數據的情況下，假設 PEA 的坑壁角度爲保守的 48 度。礦業顧問GE21審查了岩土工程研究的結果，評估表明，可以選擇將Cabacal礦坑的全球懸掛牆增加到54度（坑壁的陡度爲12.5％）。將對新數據進行審查並輸入Cabacal PFS。廢石量的減少爲提高該項目的剝離率提供了空間。開採較少量的廢石將有利於該項目的運營成本，並縮小儲存廢石所需的面積。在進行預可行性分析之前，將隨着鑽探計劃的進展對最終假設進行審查。

Meridian Mining UK S is focused on:
Meridian Mining UK S 專注於：
- The development and exploration of the advanced stage Cabaçal VMS gold‐copper project;
- Regional scale exploration of the Cabaçal VMS belt; and
- Exploration in the Jaurú & Araputanga Greenstone belts (the above all located in the State of Mato Grosso, Brazil).
- 開發和勘探已進入後期階段的Cabacal VMS金銅項目；
- Cabacal VMS 地帶的區域規模勘探；以及
- 探索 Jauru 和 Araputanga 綠巖帶（以上均位於巴西的馬託格羅索州）。
Cabaçal is a gold-copper-silver rich VMS deposit with the potential to be a standalone mine within the 50km VMS belt. Cabaçal's base and precious metal-rich mineralization is hosted by volcanogenic type, massive, semi-massive, stringer, and disseminated sulphides within deformed metavolcanic-sedimentary rocks. A later-stage gold overprint event has emplaced high-grade gold mineralization.
Cabacal是一個富含金銅銀的VMS礦牀，有可能成爲50公里VMS帶內的獨立礦山。卡巴卡爾的底礦和富含貴金屬的礦化由變形的變質火山沉積岩中的火山成因型、塊狀、半塊狀、串狀硫化物和浸染型硫化物組成。後期的金疊印事件已經形成了高品位的金礦化。
The Preliminary Economic Assessment technical report (the "PEA Technical Report") dated March 30, 2023, entitled: "Cabaçal Gold-Copper Project NI 43-101 Technical Report and Preliminary Economic Assessment, Mato Grosso, Brazil" outlines a base case after-tax NPV5 of USD 573 million and 58.4% IRR from a pre-production capital cost of USD 180 million, leading to capital repayment in 10.6 months (assuming metals price scenario of USD 1,650 per ounces of gold, USD 3.59 per pound of copper, and USD 21.35 per ounce of silver). Cabaçal has a low All-in-Sustaining-Cost of USD 671 per ounce gold equivalent for the first five years, driven by high metallurgical recovery, a low life-of-mine strip ratio of 2.1:1, and the low operating cost environment of Brazil (see press release dated March 6, 2023).
2023年3月30日的初步經濟評估技術報告（“PEA技術報告”），標題爲：“巴西馬託格羅索州Cabacal Gold-Copper Project NI 43-101技術報告和初步經濟評估” 概述了稅後NPV5爲5.73億美元的基本案例和來自1.8億美元的內部收益率爲58.4％，從而在10.6個月內實現資本償還（假設金屬價格情景爲1,6美元）每盎司黃金 650 美元，每磅銅 3.59 美元，每盎司白銀 21.35 美元）。在冶金回收率高、礦山條帶材壽命比爲2. 1:1 的低水平以及巴西的低運營成本環境（見2023年3月6日的新聞稿）的推動下，CabaCal在頭五年的總體維持成本較低，爲每盎司黃金當量671美元。
The Cabaçal Mineral Resource estimate consists of Indicated resources of 52.9 million tonnes at 0.6g/t gold, 0.3% copper and 1.4g/t silver and Inferred resources of 10.3 million tonnes at 0.7g/t gold, 0.2% copper & 1.1g/t silver (at a 0.3 g/t gold equivalent cut-off grade), including a higher-grade near-surface zone supporting a starter pit.
CabaCal礦產資源估算包括5,290萬噸的指示資源，即0.6g/t黃金，0.3％的銅和1.4g/t的銀，以及推斷的1,030萬噸資源，即0.7g/t黃金、0.2％的銅和1.1g/t的銀（按0.3g/t的黃金當量臨界等級），包括支撐起始礦坑的更高品位的近地表區域。

Technical Notes
技術筆記
Samples have been analysed at SGS laboratory in Belo Horizonte. Samples are dried, crushed with 75% passing <3 mm, split to give a mass of 250-300g, pulverized with 95% passing 150#. Gold analyses are conducted by FAA505 (fire assay of a 50g charge), and base metal analysis by methods ICP40B and ICP40B_S (four acid digest with ICP-OES finish). Visible gold intervals are sampled by metallic screen fire assay method MET150-FAASCR. Samples are held in the Company's secure facilities until dispatched and delivered by staff and commercial couriers to the laboratory. Pulps and coarse rejects are retained and returned to the Company for storage. The Company submits a range of quality control samples, including blanks and gold and polymetallic standards supplied by Rocklabs, ITAK and OREAS, supplementing laboratory quality control procedures. Approximately 5% of archived samples are sent for umpire laboratory analysis, including any lots exhibiting QAQC outliers after discussion with the laboratory. In BP Minerals sampling, gold was analysed historically by fire assay and base metals by three acid digest and ICP finish at the Nomos laboratory in Rio de Janeiro. Silver was analysed by aqua regia digest with an atomic absorption finish. True width is considered to be 80-90% of intersection width. Assay figures and intervals are rounded to 1 decimal place. Gold equivalents for Cabaçal are calculated as: AuEq(g/t) = (Au(g/t) * %Recovery) + (1.492*(Cu% * %Recovery)) + (0.013*(Ag(g/t) * %Recovery)), where:

就適用證券法而言，本新聞稿中的某些陳述包含前瞻性信息或前瞻性陳述。正如Meridian最近提交的年度信息表中的 “風險因素” 標題下披露的那樣，這些陳述涉及未來的事件和條件，因此涉及固有的風險和不確定性。儘管Meridian認爲這些因素和假設是合理的，但鑑於管理層的經驗以及對當前狀況和預期發展的看法，Meridian無法保證這些預期會被證明是正確的。任何前瞻性陳述僅代表其發表之日，除非適用的證券法另有要求，否則Meridian不打算或沒有義務更新任何前瞻性陳述，無論是由於新信息、未來事件、結果還是其他原因。
