Tribute’s Arrow holes hit mark (November 06, 2006)

Analytical results from two drill holes by Tribute Minerals (TBM-V) at the Garnet Lake property in northwestern Ontario have shown zinc and minor copper mineralization.

The holes, Tribute’s last two of the current drill campaign, tested areas west of the known Arrow zone, where a resource has been previously outlined. One hole intersected three zones: one was 5.2 metres long, grading 0.56% zinc, 0.15% copper; another graded 2.20% zinc and 0.39% copper over 2.35 metres, and a third graded 2.11% zinc, 0.18% copper over 2.1 metres. All three had credits in silver, gold and indium.

A second hole cut 1 metre grading 4.28% zinc, 0.1% copper, and minor silver, gold and indium.

Earlier drilling showed an indicated resource of 1.3 million tonnes at average grades of 8.12% zinc, 0.81% copper, 0.6 gram gold and 22.9 grams silver per tonne, and 574,000 tonnes grading 4.34% zinc, 0.87% copper, 0.8 gram gold and 22.3 grams silver per tonne.
