Northern Territory focused copper-gold explorer, Tennant Minerals Limited announced the assay results from a further three diamond drillholes recently completed at the Bluebird copper-gold discovery. These latest results include outstanding high-grade sulphide copper and gold intersections which have extended the Bluebird discovery by a further 100m to over 250m below surface. Diamond drillhole BBDD0013 tested extensions of the mineralisation to the west of the previous spectacular copper and gold intersection in BBDD0012 (63m @ 2.1% Cu, 4.6 g/t Au incl.

27.55m @ 3.6% Cu, 10 g/t Au1), producing the following intersections of high-grade copper and gold that include spectacular assays associated with massive sulphides (chalcocite - Cu2S) of up to 54.5% Cu. 40.0m @ 2.6% Cu and 1.34 g/t Au from 131.0m (down hole). including 24.5m @ 3.9% Cu, 0.45 g/t Au from 146.5m.

including 4.75m @ 15.2% Cu, 0.36 g/t Au from 164.0m incl. 0.8m @ 54.5% Cu. & including 3.0m @ 1.8% Cu and 13.2 g/t Au from 181.0m incl.

1.0m @ 39 g/t Au. Diamond drillhole BBDD0015 is a 100m step-out at depth (down-plunge) from BBDD0012 that produced the following thick and high-grade copper sulphide with gold intersections: 17.8m @ 3.7 % Cu and 0.34 g/t Au from 277m (down hole) Including 9.5m @ 6.0 % Cu and 0.48 g/t Au from 278.0m, including 2.3m @ 12.3 % Cu and 0.36 g/t Au from 285.2m. The intersection in BBDD0015 has doubled the depth extent of the Bluebird discovery to more than 250m below surface, where it remains completely open.

Re-logging of cut and sampled core from these new intersections, as well as the previous spectacular intersection in BBDD0012, indicates that the majority of the copper mineralisation is the sulphide mineral chalcocite (Cu2S), which has the proportion of copper of any sulphide mineral. The thick copper-gold intersection in BBDD0013 is associated with a dilational thickened zone developed within an anticlinal hinge "roll-over" position . Structural measurements indicate that BBDD0015 is close to another anticlinal dilational thickened target zone at depth, which will be drill- tested as part of the Stage 2 follow-up program currently being planned.

Results were also received for BBDD0014, which intersected 28m @ 0.65% Cu from 128m downhole including 2m @ 1.6% Cu, 0.17 g/t Au and 2m @ 2.1% Cu. These intersections are interpreted to represent the top of the Bluebird copper-gold zone Results are awaited from two further step-out diamond drillholes that tested the Bluebird discovery to the west of all previous drillholes and include.
