Filo Mining Corp. announced that the 2020/2021 field season is underway at the Filo del Sol project, with the first drill hole now in progress. A second rig is scheduled to be operating by the end of this week, with two more to be added in December. Drilling is planned to continue until late April, and the Company is targeting the completion of 8,000 metres of diamond drilling. The program is operating under a comprehensive COVID-19 protocol which relies on a strict regime of testing and quarantine to ensure as much as possible that all personnel arriving at the project site are free of the virus. The initial hole, FSDH040, is targeted on expanding the high-grade zone encountered in hole FSDH038 which was stopped at 383m due to the early curtailment of the season amid growing concerns over the pandemic. The last 73m of FSDH038 assayed 2.04% CuEq (1.19% Cu, 1.06 g/t Au). This style of mineralization has a distinctive geophysical signature characterized by high chargeability and low resistivity, and there is a clear anomaly roughly centred on FSDH038 with dimensions of about 500 metres in diameter. Holes FSDH032 and FSDH034 lie on the northern and southern boundaries of this feature. The second planned hole will step out 200 metres to the north of FSDH032 (1,009m at 0.95% CuEq (0.57% Cu, 0.39g/t Au, 11.1g/t Ag)) and will determine if this mineralization continues in this direction. The only other hole drilled on this section was an RC hole from 2014 which was drilled to a depth of 406m and intersected a 20m section from 360m depth which assayed 1.07% Cu and 0.63 g/t Au.
