Vancouver, BC – November 15, 2022 – Finlay Minerals Ltd. (TSXV: FYL | OTCQB: FYMNF) (“Finlay” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that all drilling and field programs have been completed on its Silver Hope Property, in central British Columbia.
2022 Silver Hope:
The recently completed 1,671 meter (“m”) drill program evaluated some of the high-priority, undrilled targets within the Equity East Zone (3 holes totaling 444 m) and the Allin Zone (3 holes totaling 1,017 m). The Equity East and Allin targets are combined geochemical and geophysical anomalies strongly associated with the Goosly Intrusive Complex (GIC). (CLICK HERE to view the Silver Hope Property with the Equity East & Allin Zones and the Main Trend’s Gaul Zone Map). The former Equity Silver open-pit and underground mine is located on the western edge of the magnetic high anomaly which is interpreted as the GIC.
Follow-up drilling in the Gaul Zone (1 hole totaling 210 m), along the Main Trend, also tested 125 m south of SH21-09 which intersected 76.57 m (from 80.23 m) grading 0.45% Cu, 14.6 g/t Ag, and 0.14 g/t Au.
Overall, 817 drill core samples were submitted for analysis, along with 151 soil samples taken to the west of the MAIN Trend over the SAM showing, and another 21 soil samples taken over a new gossanous area to the northwest of the former Equity Silver Mine exposed by recent logging. All samples have been shipped to ALS Global Laboratories. Assay results will be released after they have been received and reviewed.
