The new vein, named Yessi, has a geochemical signature indicating a potentially different phase of mineralization containing a higher gold to silver ratio and low levels of base metals.
The drill results come almost two months after Lifezone began trading on the NYSE, following the business combination between Lifezone Holdings and special purpose acquisition company GoGreen Investments.
The potentially open pittable inferred resource is 541 million tonnes at 0.69% zinc, 0.28% lead, and 13.6 grams silver per tonne for an NSR value of $20.32 per tonne.
Initial assessments indicate a potential inclusion of approximately 17.5 million tonnes of mineralized material from the Roger deposit into Opemiska's open pit development strategy.
