Perth, Feb 19, 2009 AEST (ABN Newswire) - Kasbah Resources Limited (ASX:KAS) is pleased to provide this update as to the company's progress in Morocco. The company's prime exploration focus during the quarter has been its Achmmach Tin Project and these results continue to define additional high grade, wide tin lodes within the main Meknes zone at Achmmach.
ACHMMACH TIN PROJECT
AD028 Results
AD028 was drilled 50 metres west of AD027 on approximately the same RL. It was drilled to test 80-100m down dip of the inferred subvertical orientation of Meknes zone mineralisation intersected in ONHYM underground exploration. It was drilled from the south on section with AD018 and AD019 previously drilled from the north.
AD028 returned a significant intersection of tin mineralisation of 38m @ 0.93% Sn from 235m including 11m @ 2.02% from 241m.
This intersection is south of the tin previously intersected in the Meknes zone.
A broad zone of 40m averaging 0.17% Sn from 285-325m was intersected below the vertical down dip projection of the Meknes zone. More drilling is required to confirm this.
AD028 Drill Core Structural Orientation
Within the well mineralized intersection from 241 to 252 metres three measurements were taken on breccia veins (2) and the contact between a tectonic and hydrothermal breccia. The three structures consistently strike 055 degrees dipping steeply to subvertical the northwest. This orientation corresponds to the structures noted in the surface mapping at 3714445mN 243140mE. However based on correlating this breccia zone in AD028 with those in AD026 at 213m and AD027 at 228m a strike of 075 degrees is inferred.
More work is needed to understand the relationship between the broad breccia zone and the internal elements.
