Recent underground drilling on levels 3 and 5 revealed high-grade copper concentrations. At level 3, 5 metres grading <em>11.21% copper<\/em> and <em>117.89 g\/t silver<\/em> were encountered, while at level 5, drilling revealed 4 metres grading <em>2.83% copper<\/em> and <em>49.75 g\/t silver<\/em> .  <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A major high-grade copper discovery<\/h2>\n\n<p>Recent exploration of the historic &#8221; <strong>Kombat<\/strong> &#8221; mine has revealed a significant expansion of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/news\/confirm-high-grade-copper-in-argentina\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"178448\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">mineralization<\/a><\/strong> . The drill holes were intended to verify previous data, but the results were more optimistic than expected, extending the extent of mineralization. <\/p>\n\n<p>The significance of these findings is that the ore bodies are located close to previously mined areas, which facilitates short-term mining. Jed Richardson, CEO of Trigon Metals, highlighted the potential of the mine, while Dr. Andreas Rompel, Vice President of Exploration, indicated that they expect better results at deeper levels due to the increase in grade. <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Quality Assurance and Control<\/strong> ( <em>QA\/QC<\/em> ) results were validated through a strict quality control program, following ASTM <strong>standard E2941\u221221<\/strong> for mineral extraction. Drill samples were sent to the independent laboratory <strong>African Laboratory Specialists Namibia<\/strong> ( <em>ALS<\/em> ), where they were analyzed using acid digestion and modern spectrometry techniques, ensuring accurate results. <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Follow us on social networks and don&#8217;t miss any of our publications!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@inspenet\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">YouTube<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/inspenetnetwork\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LinkedIn<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/inspenetnetwork\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Facebook<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/inspenet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Inspenetnetwork\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">X<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Source:<\/strong> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/trigonmetals.com\/2024\/10\/08\/trigon-further-expands-mineralized-zones-at-kombat-mine-namibia-intersects-5-metres-at-11-21-cu-and-117-89-g-t-ag\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Trigon Metals<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Photo: Shutterstock<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These important findings are based on the concentration of minerals close to previously exploited areas, which facilitates mining in the short term and for the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8404,"featured_media":194481,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_bbp_topic_count":0,"_bbp_reply_count":0,"_bbp_total_topic_count":0,"_bbp_total_reply_count":0,"_bbp_voice_count":0,"_bbp_anonymous_reply_count":0,"_bbp_topic_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_forum_subforum_count":0,"footnotes":""},"categoria_noticias":[13030,13060],"etiqueta_noticias":[],"class_list":["post-194485","noticias","type-noticias","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","categoria_noticias-industry","categoria_noticias-mining"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias\/194485","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/noticias"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8404"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=194485"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias\/194485\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/194481"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=194485"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"categoria_noticias","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categoria_noticias?post=194485"},{"taxonomy":"etiqueta_noticias","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/etiqueta_noticias?post=194485"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
