Benjamin Hill Announces Start-Up of Inaugural Diamond Drill Program at Alotta Copper-Gold Project in West-Central Yukon

08.11.2023  |  Newsfile

Vancouver, November 8, 2023 - Benjamin Hill Mining Corp. (CSE: BNN) (OTCQB: BNNHF) ("Company") is pleased to announce the start of the diamond drilling program at the Alotta project in the West-Central Yukon. The drilling program will test the central area of a large chargeability anomaly over 2.0 kilometres long. The IP data outlined areas of high chargeability/moderated resistivities, that are also coincident with the anomalous copper and gold in soil and geophysical anomalies.

Alotta Project Highlights:

  • Magnetic depletion coincident with gold/copper in soils anomalous geochemistry indicates the occurrence of a large, porphyry related hydrothermal system.
  • High total potassium counts from radiometric survey supports porphyry potential.
  • IP chargeability results overlap the same area of interest as coincident soil geochemistry and geophysical anomalies.
  • Allota shows insitu Gold/Copper in-soil geochemical anomalies over 4.0 x 1.0 kilometers.
  • Similar intrusive complex geological setting to the Casino deposit. Casino deposit is host to 2.17 billion tonnes of measured and indicated resources containing 7.4 billion lbs of copper and 12.7 million ounces of gold - Western Copper and Gold, June 22, 2021 news release announcing PEA outlining the deposit.
  • Never drill tested, the project is permitted for drill testing. Drilling commences in early November.
  • Management of project by Archer Cathro and Associates, same company responsible for Casino exploration.
  • Archer Cathro has defined targets for drill testing. Initial proposal is 2 holes, each to 500-metre depths.

Figure # 2 shows the plan of chargeability results from the 2D IP-Res model overlain by gold-in-soil and magnetic susceptibility (RTP). The dashed polyline highlights the area of greatest interest for testing given the occurrence of favorable geochemical and geophysical anomalies. Also shown is the initially proposed 2 NQ diamond drill holes, each testing up to 500-meters in depth.
