Wallbridge Mining To Expand Drill Program on Rogers Creek
Copper-Gold-Molybdenum Property
The distribution of mineralization and alteration intersected in WRC-001 is consistent with many porphyry-style mineral deposits in
"The early results of our drilling program are very encouraging," stated Alar Soever, President and CEO of Wallbridge. "The results confirm the cause of the blind subsurface IP anomalies is indeed copper-molybdenum mineralization, as we suspected. The additional drilling should help us gain enough information about this mineralization to be able to plan a much more extensive follow-up drilling program."
Copper and molybdenum sulphide mineralization (pyrite, chalcopyrite and molybdenite) in WRC-001 occurs as disseminations and in quartz-sulphide and sulphide veinlets up to 1 centimetre in width that are unevenly distributed between about 400 metres and about 725 metres depth. The sulphide mineral assemblages are spatially and temporally associated with very well-developed propylitic and phyllic alteration assemblages, both of which increase in intensity toward the core of the targeted IP anomalies. Figure 1, which can be viewed on our website at www.wallbridgemining.com, shows the location of the mineralization relative to its distribution relative to two IP anomalies on the western flank of Target 1, a 1.6 kilometre diameter breccia pipe.
The Rogers Creek property is located approximately 40 kilometres south of Pemberton in south-western British Columbia. Wallbridge completed a five line, 28 line-kilometre IP geophysical survey on the property during the summer of 2009 (see Wallbridge press release dated
