Integra Resources Corp. (TSXV: ITR) has received positive drill results from 21 additional drill holes, representing 860 m from the recently completed stockpile drilling programme at the DeLamar Project in southwestern Idaho.
The Stockpile drilling programme at DeLamar was designed to test a large portion of the estimated 60 million tonnes (Mt) of mineralized material that was stockpiled and/or used as backfill at the Project.
The company believes that additional oxide-and-mixed material from the stockpiles and backfill at DeLamar has the potential to significantly increase the heap leach mine life of the Project in future phases and further bolster the robust economics presented in the company’s 2022 Pre-feasibility Study.
Integra is currently focused on achieving several key milestones in 2023, including an updated mineral resource estimate and the submission of the Mine Plan of Operations at DeLamar, as well as an updated mineral resource estimate and Preliminary Economic Study at the Wildcat and Mountain View Projects, located in western Nevada.
“The successful completion of the stockpile drilling program this winter required a monumental effort and we are extremely thankful for our industry leading team at site,” President, CEO and Director, Jason Kosec, said.
“Overall, the drill programme was a resounding success with the results exceeding our original estimates and modelling in terms of grade and continuity. The updated resource estimate, including results from the stockpile drill program is expected to demonstrate the potential for the material to significantly increase the heap leach mine life in future phases as well as enhance the overall project economics at DeLamar.”
