Aztec Minerals Reports Promising Results from 2024 Tombstone Exploration

Aztec Minerals Corp. has announced positive initial results from their 2024 surface exploration at the Tombstone Gold-Silver Project in Arizona. The latest findings reveal significant, broad mineralization near the surface, confirming previous drilling results from 2020 to 2023.

The Contention zone sampling highlights include 30.2 meters with an average of 3.72 gpt gold and 167.93 gpt silver, equivalent to 5.82 gpt gold when using an 80:1 silver-gold ratio. Another notable result from the G1 line showed 50 meters at 0.827 gpt gold and 54.08 gpt silver.

These preliminary results suggest a potential expansion of the mineralization footprint, particularly on the western side of the Contention Pit. The exploration program also includes further reconnaissance and chip channel sampling, with additional results pending.

Aztec's geological mapping indicates a high potential for discovering more mesothermal gold and silver mineralization. Ongoing efforts aim to enhance their geological models for potential bulk-style mineralization within the Tombstone Project.
