Venturex Resources Limited (Venturex) is pleased to report that resource definition drilling at Mons Cupri, part of the Pilbara Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (VMS) Project, has intersected substantial widths of copper mineralisation, along with zones of zinc, lead, silver and gold mineralisation.
The aim of the drilling program is to delineate and extend lenses of high grade Cu‐ Zn‐Pb‐Ag mineralisation, develop a high grade mining schedule and provide samples for metallurgical testwork. Initial drilling has focused on extension of in‐pit resources at Whim Creek, infill drilling of copper resources Mons Cupri and Evelyn, and infill drilling of high‐grade Zn‐Pb‐Ag lenses at Salt Creek. All resources are located within a 25 kilometres radius of Whim Creek, the proposed location of a mill and concentrator.
The first hole in the infill program at Mons Cupri intersected 53 metres of copper mineralisation, including a higher grade zone of 22 metres @ 2.9% Cu. The result shows that the high grade copper zone in the central part of the Mons Cupri deposit is shallower and flatter than expected. This is likely to enhance the resource estimate and improve ore:waste ratios in an open pit cut‐back.

Continuing Work Program
The RC and diamond drilling program will continue targeting an extensive list of exploration opportunities within the broader Whim Creek and Liberty‐Indee VMS provinces including the following:
-
Depth extensions of high grade Zn‐Pb mineralisation located at Salt Creek
-
Testing for depth extensions of the known copper lenses at Salt Creek
-
Targeting the lateral and depth extensions of the Balla Balla VMS lens (Salt Creek trend)
-
Untested geochemical and geophysical anomalies in the broader Salt Creek VMS Belt
-
Numerous untested gossans in the Whim Creek ‐ Mons Cupri corridor
-
Depth extensions of the main Whim Creek VMS system
-
Depth extensions of the main Evelyn VMS lens at Liberty‐Indee
-
Untested gossans on the regional Liberty‐Indee VMS horizon
Further full assay results are pending. The results from the ongoing drilling program will be progressively reported over the coming weeks and will be incorporated into revised estimations of the Project’s high grade mineral resources to JORC standard.
