J U N E / J U L Y 2 0 1 8 www.resourceworld.com 27 of DDH G17-38 (which intersected 37.13 metres true thickness grading 1% copper, including 23.76 metres grading 1.37% cop - per and 4 metres grading 2.15% copper). DDH G18-39 intersected similar carbonate replacement style, semi-massive magnetite- chalcopyrite-lesser pyrite mineralization in two zones: 10.7 metres grading 0.42% cop - per, including 2.1 metres grading 1.13% copper, and 7.25 metres of 0.69% cop- per, including 2.55 metres grading 1.38% copper. Results delineate the narrowing, eastern edge of the G1 Zone. Drilling was halted April 8 to allow ground conditions in the area to improve fol- lowing spring breakup and due to pending completion of geophysical surveys and the company's recently announced financing. A series of geophysical tests were con - ducted by Peter E. Walcott and Associates to refine drill targeting in the immediate G1 area, and to search for new anomalies in the 1,800-metre gap between G1 and Spout deposit. This work has now been completed and early modelling of data collected along a single traverse indicates strong positive induced polarization chargeability anoma - lies coincide with the at-surface Spout South Zone, and with the relatively deep G1 mineralization located approximately 350 metres below surface. Several additional chargeability features offer positive targets within the gap area, where earlier ground gravity also shows positive anomalies. Additional modeling and interpretation continues, to further refine targeting strat - egy prior to resuming drilling anticipated in the first week of June. Altiplano Metals Inc. [APN-TSXV; ALTPF-OTCQB; 9Aj1-FSE] reported under- ground sampling assays from the 395-metre and 401-metre levels at the historic Farellon copper-gold mine near La Serena, Chile. Sampling shows high-grade copper inter - vals at the recently opened 401-metre level. The thickness of the 395-metre northeast front of the vein increased to at least seven metres. Underground chip sampling cov - ered 185 metres along the 395-metre level drift and 48 metres along the 401-metre level drift. Results include 2.09 metres of 2.59% copper with 0.23 g/t gold (395 m level); and 2.42 metres at 3.08% copper with 0.16 g/t gold (401 m level). One chan - nel sample returned 6.08% copper and 0.38 g/t gold over 1.07 metres. Inferred resources, which are being expanded and upgraded, stand at 278,360 tonnes averag- ing 1.92% copper and 0.12 ppm gold. Ero Copper Corp. [ERO-TSX; ERRPF- OTC] reported on the ongoing exploration and resource definition drilling programs at its Pilar, Vermelhos and Surubim mineral districts, all part of its 99.6%-owned Vale de Curaçá property located in Bahia State, Brazil.
