Jaxon Mining Inc.: Further Evidence of a Precious Metals Rich VMS System at Hazelton
DGAP-News: Jaxon Mining Inc. / Key word(s): Miscellaneous Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – November 28, 2017) – Jaxon Mining Inc. (TSXV: JAX) (FSE: OU31) (OTC: JXMNF) is pleased to provide an update from the Fall/Winter 2017 drilling program at its Hazelton silver-zinc project, located 50 kilometres north of Smithers, in the Skeena Arch of British Columbia. Jaxon has successfully drilled 10 of 13 drill holes totalling 1,956 metres out of a planned 2,000 metres, and the eleventh hole is under way. As previously reported, all core samples are being transported to MS Analytical laboratories in Langley BC for analysis. Delays are still being experienced at the lab due to an above-average volume of business late in the season. Jason Cubitt, Jaxon’s President and CEO comments, ‘While we’re still waiting for analytical data from the lab, our team is very satisfied that we’re seeing visual evidence of a large mineralised system in drill core.’ He continues: ‘We have a lot of ground yet to explore in the Hazelton district but these first 10 holes makes a compelling case for the region in general and of good things to come.’ Observed Drilling Highlights
Jaxon expects to receive all assay data by late January, 2018. Results will be integrated into a 3-dimensional data model and our technical team will use this to establish a Phase Two program beginning Spring 2018. A drill plan view map is included in this news release. Additional material including drill site photos is available on the company’s website at www.jaxonmining.com. All core samples are transported daily to Jaxon’s secure core logging/cutting facility in Smithers. Once there, the samples are logged by a professional geologist, selected sections are cut in half, with one-half placed back in the core box and the other half prepared for secure shipment to the assay lab. Each sample is placed in a numbered plastic sample bag along with a sample number tag and immediately sealed. Samples are packed in rice sacks, sealed and palletized. The pallets are delivered to Bandstra Transportation Systems Ltd. in Smithers to be shipped to MS Analytical in Langley, B.C., for analysis. MS Analytical is ISO/IEC 17025:2005 certified and has its own in-house quality assurance/quality control program utilizing blanks, duplicates and standards. Jaxon is conducting its own independent quality assurance/quality control program for the drill program, which includes the insertion of certified standards, blanks and limited duplicate samples. These samples are checked to ensure results fall within acceptable target ranges.
