Tertiary Minerals #TYM – Wide Silver Zone Discovered at Pyramid Gold-Silver Project
Further to its announcement on 10 March 2021, Tertiary Minerals plc is pleased to report that assay results from a recent trenching programme show a thick zone of open-ended silver mineralisation in Trench No.1 at the North Ruth soil anomaly on the Pyramid Gold-Silver Project in Nevada, USA.
Highlights:
- 6 trenches completed for a combined length of 360m of trenching.
- Trench No.1 through northern portion of the North Ruth soil anomaly cut 45.72m grading 61g/t silver (1.78 ounces/ton)
-
- Includes 14m grading 146g/t silver (4.26 ounces/ton).
- Silver mineralisation continuing to end of Trench No. 1 – open ended.
- Trench No.2, 460m along strike, includes 3m grading 260g/t Silver (7.58 ounces/ton)
- Narrower zones of lower grade mineralisation found in 3 other trenches on the Western Line soil anomaly.
- Infill soil sample results awaited for southern part of the project
Commenting today, Executive Chairman Patrick Cheetham said: “This is a very exciting discovery, with the results today culminating from our systematic exploration undertaken over the past 12 months. It is now clear that the North Ruth soil anomaly reflects a significant width of silver mineralisation in situ and at surface that includes both a high-grade zone and a bulk tonnage target. The mineralisation in Trench No.1 is not closed off,and while the true width of this zone remains to be determined,we will move as quickly as possible to carry out further definition and drill-testing. Ilook forward to reporting back to you with the results of the additional soil-sampling on the public lands section of the property.”

Detailed Information
Pyramid Gold-Silver Project
Background
The Pyramid Gold-Silver Project is located in north-central Nevada, USA and is targeting epithermal gold-silver mineralisation in the prolific past producing Walker Lane Mineral Belt.
On 11 January 2021, the Company announced results from a soil sampling programme carried out to confirm and determine the extent of an open-ended gold and multi-element soil anomaly originally defined in the 1980s by Battle Mountain Gold Company. A number of significant new gold and silver-in-soil anomalies were identified and named the North Ruth, Western Line and Western Splay anomalies.
In late January 2021, follow up rock chip sampling highlighted the potential for in situ mineralisation and in particular at the 800m long North Ruth soil anomaly where grab sampling identified areas of silicified and brecciated Tertiary-age volcanics within the anomaly with one sample of spoil from an old shaft containing 314 g/t silver (9.16 ounces/ton) amongst eight samples averaging 91 g/t silver (2.67 ounces/ton) and 0.26 g/t gold.
Trenching Programme
Follow-up trenching has so far been restricted to the North Ruth and Western Line soil anomalies where they fall within the private land portion of the Pyramid Property under lease to the Company. Six trenches were dug in April 2021 to expose bedrock over continuous sections of these two anomalies .
Two trenches, Nos. I and 2, were located over the north and south ends of the North Ruth anomaly respectively. Assay results from Trench No.1 revealed a 45.7m continuous width of mineralisation grading 61ppm silver (1.78 ounces/ton) and 0.09ppm gold starting 42.67m from the east end of the trench and continuing up to the western end where it ended in mineralisation.
This 45m section contained two separate higher-grade zones of 9.14m grading 146 g/t silver (4.27 ounces/ton) and 0.10g/t gold and 3.05m grading 99 g/t silver (2.88 ounces/ton) and 0.15 g/t gold. The silver bearing zone is flanked on the eastern side by a 9.15m wide zone with higher gold values averaging 0.54 g/t gold and 11 g./t silver.
The next nearest trench, Trench No.2, some 460m along strike, cut 3.05 m grading 260g/t silver (7.58 ounces/ton) and 0.27g/t gold. ,
A summary of significant results is shown in the table below.
Four other trenches were cut at spacings of between 95m to 250m over a 470m strike length of the Western Line soil anomaly and cut through a number of narrow zones of low-grade gold and silver mineralisation as shown in the table below. Further work on the Western Line soil anomaly, at least within the private land portions of the property, is not currently a priority.
The silver mineralisation in Trench No.1 occurs within a quart latite tuff showing varying levels of epithermal argillic alteration and silicification. Additional infill soils sampling has been completed on the south end of the Project Area, on public lands secured by mining claims, and results are awaited.
The Company will move to drill test the North Ruth silver mineralisation as soon as possible and will consider additional trenching once the additional soil sample results become available.

MARKET ABUSE REGULATION (MAR) DISCLOSURE
The information contained within this announcement is deemed by the Company to constitute inside information as stipulated under the Market Abuse Regulations (EU) No. 596/2014 as it forms part of UK domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (‘MAR’). Upon the publication of this announcement via Regulatory Information Service (‘RIS’), this inside information is now considered to be in the public domain.
Chairman’s Statement
I am pleased to present our Interim Report for the six-month period ended 31 March 2021 and to be reporting further progress in the Company’s transition from a fluorspar focused company to a broader based company exploring for copper, gold, and silver. We now hold five active projects in Nevada, USA, with exploration programmes in progress across the portfolio.
We have maintained our position in the Storuman fluorspar development project in Sweden where the Company’s mining concession application remains under government review, although, it seems, with little prospect of an imminent decision.
At the Pyramid Gold-Silver Project near Reno, Nevada, which we hold under lease, we are awaiting assay results from a trenching programme completed to test mineralisation found at surface in a follow-up of an earlier soil sampling programme. Infill soil sampling has also been completed, analytical results are awaited and are expected to generate targets for a second phase of trenching.
The Brunton Pass Copper-Gold Project is a newly acquired project which we staked to follow up widespread occurrences of copper oxide minerals at surface and where our own sampling included a 2.44m channel sample grading 4.66% copper. We have moved quickly to carry out a drone magnetic survey and a project-wide soil sampling programme where results are awaited.
An initial drill hole was recently completed at the Lucky Copper Project intersecting narrow zones of gossan containing low copper values. The mineralisation has a magnetic response and is of a replacement type that can include large copper deposits and a drone magnetic survey is now underway to identify larger targets for drilling.
Further work is also scheduled for the Paymaster base metal and Mt Tobin silver projects where there is a strong association of magnetic and geochemical anomalies which present exciting exploration targets and where follow up field evaluation is now planned for the summer.
Copper is increasingly a focus for the Company. It is a key metal in electric vehicles, prices are at record levels and the long-term market outlook is very favourable. After reviewing data on a number of projects around the world, the Company has formed a Zambian subsidiary, Luangwa Minerals Limited, which will target copper exploration and development opportunities in Zambia, one of the world’s top 10 copper producing countries with nearly 900,000 tonnes of copper produced in 2020. Tertiary’s Board has many years of experience with Zambian mining projects and has put together a small team with a successful background in exploring and developing copper projects in Zambia.
We continue to hold our pre-production and production royalties on the Kaaresselkä and Kiekerömaa gold projects in Finland which are being explored by Aurion Resources and an Aurion/B2B Gold joint venture company respectively. These project areas are close to Rupert Resources’ Ikkari gold discovery which is attracting strong investor interest.
Our activities during the period have been funded through existing cash resources, a share placing with joint broker Peterhouse Capital Limited that raised £450,000 (before expenses), and also an exercise of warrants which raised £13,750. Precious Metals Capital Group (PMCG) was issued with shares during the reporting period to the value of £420,000 and the £600,000 placing & prepayment agreement signed in April 2020 is now settled in full. No further share issues are due to PMCG.
The Net Current Assets of the Group at the period end were £761,220 including cash and cash equivalents of £743,497.
On the corporate front we were pleased that Dr Mike Armitage has joined the Board as an independent non-executive director during the reporting period and we expect Mike’s wide global experience with SRK Consulting will be a valuable asset for the Company going forward.
We anticipate regular news flow over the remainder of the financial year and look forward to advising shareholders of our progress.

Tertiary Minerals #TYM reports encouraging analytical results from the Lucky Copper Project
Tertiary Minerals plc is pleased to announce encouraging analytical results from its maiden drill hole at the Lucky Copper Project in Nevada, USA.
Highlights:
- Hole 21TLRC001 was drilled to a depth of 108.24m.
- Two magnetic gossan zones intersected containing low-grade copper (+/-gold) mineralisation:
- 57m grading 0.12% copper and 0.12 g/t gold from 15.24m down hole.
- 05m grading 0.40% copper from 33.53m down hole.
- Highly anomalous copper (average 325ppm copper) over 24.38m from 83.82m to the base of hole.
- Geological evaluation of drill samples ongoing.
- Follow up magnetic survey planned.
Commenting today, Executive Chairman Patrick Cheetham said:
“This maiden drill hole has confirmed the occurrence of copper mineralisation in magnetic gossan zones at shallow depth. The geological setting of the mineralisation is not yet defined but trace element geochemistry suggests the gossans are developed from skarn-style mineralisation, a class of deposit containing a number of large economic copper deposits in Nevada and the adjoining States. Detailed evaluation of the drill samples is underway to define the host rock stratigraphy and a magnetic survey is planned to define additional drill targets.”

Market Abuse Regulation (MAR) Disclosure
Certain information contained in this announcement would have been deemed inside information for the purposes of Article 7 of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 until the release of this announcement.
Detailed information
The Lucky Copper Project was staked by the Company in 2020 and is located on the east side of the old Aurum mining centre, 96km northeast of the major porphyry copper mining town of Ely in north-east Nevada.
The project is targeting disseminated copper mineralisation first identified during exploration carried out in the 1950s.
The Company’s drill hole 21TLRC001 was drilled vertically using the reverse circulation percussion method and samples were collected at 5ft (1.52m) intervals down hole.
The holes passed through 6.1m of overburden and a mixed sequence of sedimentary rocks down to the end of the hole at 108.20m.
Two zones of gossan were intersected at 15.24m and 33.53m down hole as shown in the table below. In addition, a wide zone of anomalous copper was intersected from 83.82m to the base of hole at 108.20m. Extensive faulting was encountered from 38m down to the bottom of the hole. The strike and dip of the mineralisation intersected is not yet known.
Table 1 Drilling results: Hole 21TLRC001
| Down Hole | From | to | |||
| interval | From | to | Copper | Gold | Silver |
| m | m | m | % | g/t | g/t |
| 4.57 | 15.24 | 19.81 | 0.12 | 0.12 | 3.23 |
| 3.05 | 33.53 | 36.58 | 0.40 | 0.00 | 8.75 |
| 24.38 | 83.82 | 108.20 | 0.03 | 0.00 | 0.91 |
Gossans are typically produced by surface and near surface weathering of metallic deposits and any contained copper sulphide minerals originally contained in such deposits are oxidised and the contained copper can be either leached out or enriched. Consequently, the grade of the mineralisation in gossans is not necessarily a reliable indicator of the grade of the mineralisation from which it is derived.
A nearby percussion hole drilled in 1951 was reported to have intersected a 20.4m cumulative thickness of mineralisation which assayed 0.65% copper to the bottom of the hole at 77.7m depth. That hole also ended in mineralisation .
These early drill results are considered to be encouraging. The gossan zones contain magnetic material which may be remnant magnetic sulphides such a pyrrhotite, or magnetic oxide minerals such as magnetite or maghemite, and it is likely that the original mineralisation will be magnetic and responsive to magnetic surveying. A drone magnetic survey is therefore planned to define additional drill targets.
A programme of petrological work is also planned to better define the host rock lithologies and the geological setting of this mineralisation and assist further exploration targeting.
Notes:
- All drill samples were submitted to Paragon Geochemical, Reno for sample preparation and analysis. Analysis was performed using method 34MA OES, a 34 element multi-acid ICP/OES and aqua regia ICP/MS package (Hg), and Au AA30, 30g fire assay with aqua regia digest and AAS finish. Quality control samples were inserted into the sample run by the Company and standards and blanks were run by the analytical laboratory for internal QA/QC purposes
