Vancouver, B.C., January 15, 2019 - Adamera Minerals Corp. (TSX V: ADZ; OTC: DDNFF) reports laboratory results for drill hole OS18-02B at the Oversight Project in Washington State. The hole is a redrill of drill hole OS18-02 announced on September 26, 2018. A number of lower grade gold intercepts were returned. Results from OS18-04 drilled further to the north are pending.
OS18-02B results are shown in the table below.
From (m) | To (m) | Gold (g/t) | Interval (m) | |
---|---|---|---|---|
OS18-02B | 27 | 28.8 | 1.2 | 1.8 |
OS18-02B | 32.6 | 33.4 | 1.3 | 0.8 |
OS18-02B | 35.3 | 50 | 0.2 | 14.7 |
OS18-02B | 62.7 | 67.3 | 1.0 | 4.6 |
OS18-02B | 82.7 | 102.1 | 0.25 | 19.4 |
OS18-02B | 117.6 | 120.6 | 2.0 | 3.0 |

Table 1. Zones with anomalous gold in drill hole OS18-02B
Magnetite intersected in drill hole OS18-02B contains 4.5 times more gold on average than the magnetite zone in OS17-03 and OS17-01 to the south. At the Overlook Mine, a general increase in gold content of the magnetite typically occurs immediately adjacent to and often contributes to the high-grade zones. Arsenopyrite, which frequently correlates with high-grade gold on the property, locally forms up to 15% of the rock in OS18-02B. The presence of arsenopyrite is not noted in drill holes to the south.
“The Oversight prospect remains a valid target. Although OS18-02B did not intersect an anticipated high-grade gold zone, the overall increase in gold content and introduction of high arsenopyrite provides encouragement for further drilling. Results from drill hole OS18-04 will provide information to help complete the picture,” says Mark Kolebaba, President and CEO of Adamera Minerals Corp.
Results for drill hole LFS18-01 on the Lamefoot South prospect were also received. No significant gold bearing zones were intersected. A hole to drill the target from the opposite side is tentatively planned.
Martin St. Pierre P.Geoph, is a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 and has reviewed data associated with the project. Gold analysis was completed by Activation Laboratories using fire assay methods.
