Nzuri Copper Limited announced significant new drilling and trenching results from its ongoing exploration program on the Kalongwe Mining Licence at its 85%-owned Kalongwe Copper-Cobalt Project, located in the Western Katangan Copperbelt in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Recent trenching and drilling at the newly-identified, near-surface high-grade cobalt prospect at Kalongwe SW, located 800m from the Kalongwe deposit, has returned numerous high-grade assay results. The program was designed to target high-grade cobalt mineralisation following encouraging recent trenching results in several Mine Series rocks identified during recent geological mapping. The results clearly indicate the potential to delineate a JORC compliant Mineral Resource at Kalongwe SW in the near-term, and planning has already commenced to undertake a step-out drilling programme to underpin a JORC compliant Mineral Resource Estimation. At Monwezi II, the Company has completed two diamond drill holes designed to test the sub-surface continuity of the fragment and the near-surface copper enrichment. Geological logging of the core indicates that these holes were successful, with one hole intersecting a significant zone of oxide copper mineralisation and the other a zone of sulphide cobalt mineralisation. Assays are awaited prior to further planned work at Monwezi II in 2018.
