Cornish Metals is pleased to report results of the recently completed 14-hole / 8,993m drilling programme at its Wide Formation exploration target.

The drilling programme has validated the Wide Formation as a new, large-scale, tin-bearing exploration target that is potentially accessible from the underground workings at South Crofty. Mineralisation has been traced over a 2,500m extent, up to 800m down dip, and remains open along strike and to depth.

In addition to the earlier discovery of the Great Flat Lode Splay and new ‘Dropper’ zones of high-grade tin mineralisation, the discovery of polymetallic tin and copper mineralisation within the interpreted extension of the Great Condurrow Mine’s Main Lode further demonstrates the exploration potential of the South Crofty area.
