Sultan Minerals Inc. (TSX VENTURE:SUL)(FRANKFURT:RZN) announced that preliminary data from the resource estimate for the Jersey Lead-Zinc-Silver Mine suggests a significant lead zinc resource may remain on the property.
The press release is quoted as saying:
Sultan recently acquired the adjacent HB, Garnet and Aspen Lead-Zinc-Silver mines and has almost doubled the size of the Jersey Emerald property in the last year. The combined HB and Garnet mining operation was historically British Columbia’s third largest lead-zinc producer. The two mines are reported to have produced a total of 6,656,101 tonnes (7,337,095 tons) of ore at an average grade of 4.1% Zn, 0.8% Pb and 4.8 g/tonne Ag (BC Geological Survey, Detail Production Report, MINFILE).
