Lower Footwall Stringer Zone (LFZ)
These latest holes on the 1400, 1500 and 1700 levels
have returned some of the best mineralization from the underground program to
date. A number of holes reported multiple zones of 2% copper or better
indicating that footwall grades and thicknesses are improving with depth.�� The Lower Footwall Zone has never been drill
tested, historic or recent, between the 1800 level and the 2700 level.�� As the water recedes and more drill access
is made available in these untested areas, Rambler is confident that this trend
of higher grade footwall stringer mineralization will continue.� �
Currently the single underground drill is testing both
the footwall and some gold targets when accessible.�� Once the second underground drill arrives in
June it will focus on the high grade gold and un-mined areas of the Ming
Massive Sulphide leaving the existing drill to focus solely on the Footwall
Zone.
Larry Pilgrim, P.Geo and
Independent Consultant comments;
�The delineation of the Lower Footwall Zone at Rambler
is progressing as planned with significant results returned. We are also
testing the gold potential in proximity to the known deposits, as well as,
peripheral un-mined massive sulphide lenses. These high-grade copper and gold
rich ore shoots do have significant tonnage and are located in close proximity
to the developed ramp access.�
The table below highlights some of the better
mineralized sections:
