Spur Zinc Project, Nevada [Exploration]

35%

❖ Small drill programme confirms high-

grade zinc oxides and leads to new

discovery of deeper zinc sulphides

❖ Possible high-grade Eureka-style CRD

system and potential for a major shale-

hosted-massive-sulphide (SHMS) deposit

beneath

❖ Verified high grade zinc oxides:

❖ 43.9 metres @ 14.2% zinc

❖ 13.7 metres @ 26.1% zinc and 5.6

ounces of silver

❖ Earn in option agreement whereby

Pasinex can earn to up to 80% interest in

the project based on payments and

exploration commitment

Exciting new zinc sulphide discovery beneath an old high-grade zinc prospect

Why are Shale-Hosted Zinc Deposits Important?

❖ Black Shale is a highly unusual host

for CRD mineralization. SHMS

deposits are highly significant for

exploration

❖ Shale-hosted massive sulphides zinc

deposits (SEDEX or SMHS) are not

common but are large, hosting over

18% of the world’s zinc

❖ Four of the five largest zinc mines and

deposits globally are shale hosted.

Examples: Red Dog, Sullivan, Selwyn,

McArthur River, Hilton
