Vancouver, British Columbia – TheNewswire - May 27, 2024 - Adamera Minerals Corp. (TSX-V: ADZ; OTC: DDNFF) has identified two zones with significant copper potential on the Buckhorn 2.0 Property in Washington State. Both areas exhibit rock samples with significant values of copper and silver. The two zones flank the Buckhorn gold mine to the north and south respectively. Each one measures more than a kilometre in diameter.

The northern zone is defined by rock grab samples ranging from 0.1 to 5.9% copper with silver values ranging from 1 to 188 g/t. In addition to surface rock samples, several shallow historic drill holes intercepted strong copper mineralization. One historic drill hole intersected 4.3% copper over 6 metres and another 1% copper over 13 metres.

The northern zone extends south towards the Buckhorn Gold Mine and to the north it is proximal to the Magnetic Mine, a significant  iron oxide / magnetite horizon that was historically mined. Adamera’s gold intercept at VTEM 1 (4g/t over 1.2 m and 1.6 m) is within this northern zone just south of the Magnetic Mine.

The southern zone is located south of the Buckhorn Gold Mine. Surface rock grab samples have assayed 0.1 to 4.9% copper with silver values from 1 to 376 g/t. Two historic grab samples reported very high silver values of 55,420 g/t Ag and 82,960 g/t Ag.

Much of the exposed granodiorite intrusive at Buckhorn Mountain is devoid of copper, silver, and gold in stark contrast to the brecciated garnet/epidote skarn in the northern zone that hosts widespread copper/silver mineralization. It is suggested that a separate subsurface intrusive body is responsible for the skarn mineralization. Geophysics followed by deeper drilling would be necessary to test the possibility of nested intrusives.

“The Buckhorn 2.0 Property is primarily of interest for gold, given the exceptional Buckhorn skarn hosted gold deposit that the area is known for. Coincidentally our data highlights a broad central zone of high copper and silver surrounding the deposit. While we have taken major steps to define drillable gold targets, we can’t ignore the copper-gold-silver potential as no modern copper exploration has been undertaken in the district. Fortunately, we have substantial baseline data to initiate an assessment of the copper potential” says Mark Kolebaba President and CEO of Adamera.

The Buckhorn Gold Mine was operated by Kinross Gold Corp. from 2008 to 2017 and produced 1.3 million ounces of gold at a grade of about 13g/t.

Jim Ebisch (P.Geol.), a qualified person, has reviewed data related to the project.
