VANCOUVER, Oct. 2, 2017 /CNW/ - Tinka Resources
Limited ("Tinka" or the "Company") (TSXV:
TK) (OTCPK: TKRFF) is pleased to announce assay results
for three additional drill holes from the South Ayawilca zinc
discovery in central Peru.
Hole A17-096 intersected high-grade zinc mineralization in
two intercepts of over 40 metres each, and is one of the best drill
holes of this year's 15,000 metre drill campaign. The zinc
intercepts in A17-096 indicate continuity of the two high-grade
zinc zones intersected in hole A17-056 (63.9 metres grading 5.6%
zinc from 126 metres depth & 51.9 metres grading 10.1 % zinc
from 242 metres depth) separated by 50 to 100 metres. Also at
South Ayawilca, hole A17-093 intersected zinc-lead-silver
mineralization in an infill hole between two holes separated by 250
metres (A17-075 and A17-078), and connects South Ayawilca with the
Central Ayawilca resource zone. Hole A17-094 intercepted a narrow
high-grade silver-zinc-lead zone in a 200 metre step out
hole. Mineralization at South Ayawilca remains open to the
southeast, east and south.
Two drill rigs continue to turn at South Ayawilca. Drill
data for a zinc resource update is being finalized, with the new
resource expected by early November. Drilling is planned to
continue until December, testing new targets and continuing with
step out holes at South Ayawilca.
Key Highlights of the latest South Ayawilca drill holes
Hole A17-096:
- 45.5 metres at 7.8 % zinc & 111 g/t indium from 241.5
metres depth, including
-
- 10.6 metres at 15.5 % zinc & 320 g/t indium from 250.8
metres depth; and
- 3.8 metres at 8.3 % zinc & 82 g/t indium from 304.8
metres depth; and
- 40.8 metres at 9.4 % zinc, 15 g/t silver & 145 g/t
indium from 315.2 metres depth, including
-
- 5.0 metres at 17.2 % zinc, 28 g/t silver & 591 g/t
indium from 319.0 metres depth, and
- 11.9 metres at 17.4 % zinc, 20 g/t silver & 80 g/t
indium from 342.6 metres depth;
Hole A17-094:
- 1.2 metres at 1.6 % zinc, 2.1 % lead & 193 g/t silver
from 394.0 metres depth;
Hole A17-093:
- 9.0 metres** at 2.7 % zinc, 0.7 % lead & 51 g/t silver
from 382.0 metres depth, including
-
- 2.7 metres at 6.8 % zinc, 1.1 % lead & 108 g/t silver
from 388.3 metres depth;
(** includes 1.3 metres of no recovery assumed zero grade)
Dr. Graham Carman, Tinka´s
President and CEO, stated: "We are thrilled with the
intersections in hole A17-096 as they confirm the continuity of
thick and high-grade zinc mineralization previously encountered in
hole A17-056. South Ayawilca continues to surprise us with its high
zinc grades. As we enter the final quarter of 2017, our busiest
year at the project with more than 15,000 metres drilled to date,
we look forward to updating our resource estimate by
November. In addition, tin assays are being compiled and will
be released once our geological interpretations are
completed. Also, closed-cycle metallurgical flotation tests
for zinc composite samples from South, West, and Central Ayawilca
are in progress with results expected before year
end."
Drill progress
Six drill holes from South and Central Ayawilca have assays
pending or are in progress (A17-095 and A17-097, 098, 099, 100,
101). Approximately five additional holes are planned at
South and Central Ayawilca this year. Assays are also pending
for two holes from the Valley area (A17-090 and 092). See
Table 1 for a summary of all significant zinc (lead, indium,
silver) intercepts in the 2017 drill program to date. Maps
attached are:
Figure 1 - Ayawilca drill hole location map.
Figure 2 - Longitudinal section of South Ayawilca showing hole
A17-096.
True thicknesses of the zinc intersections are estimated to be
at least 85% of the downhole thickness, except where otherwise
noted in footnotes to Table 1.
All significant results of the 2017 program are summarized in
Table 1 with the strongest intercepts in bold text. Table 2
summarizes all drill collar information to date.
NI 43-101 Technical Report:
On June 29, 2016, Tinka filed an independent
National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report (the "NI 43-101
Technical Report") on the Mineral Resource Estimate for the
Ayawilca Property, Department of Pasco, Peru in support of the Company's news release
dated May 25, 2016. The NI
43-101 Technical Report was authored by Mr. David Ross. P.Geo., of Roscoe Postle Associates

Notes on sampling and assaying
Drill holes are diamond
HQ or NQ size core holes with recoveries generally above 80% and
often close to 100%. The drill core is marked up, logged, and
photographed on site. The cores are cut in half at the
Company's core storage facility, with half-cores stored as a future
reference. Half-core is bagged on average over 1 to 2 metre
composite intervals and sent to ALS or SGS laboratories in
Lima for assay in batches.
Standards and blanks are inserted into each batch prior to
departure from Tinka's core storage facilities. At the
laboratory samples are dried, crushed to 100% passing 2mm, then 500
grams pulverized for multi-element analysis by ICP using multi-acid
digestion. Samples assaying over 1% zinc, lead, or copper and over
100 g/t silver are re-assayed using precise ore-grade AAS
techniques.

Forward Looking Statements: Certain information in this
news release contains forward-looking statements and
forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable
securities laws (collectively "forward-looking
statements"). All statements, other than statements of
historical fact are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking
statements are based on the beliefs and expectations of Tinka as
well as assumptions made by and information currently available to
Tinka's management. Such statements reflect the current
risks, uncertainties and assumptions related to certain factors
including, without limitations, drilling results, the Company's
expectations regarding mineral resource calculations, capital and
other costs varying significantly from estimates, production rates
varying from estimates, changes in world metal markets, changes in
equity markets, uncertainties relating to the availability and
costs of financing needed in the future, equipment failure,
unexpected geological conditions, imprecision in resource estimates
or metal recoveries, success of future development initiatives,
competition, operating performance, environmental and safety risks,
delays in obtaining or failure to obtain necessary permits and
approvals from local authorities, community agreements and
relations, and other development and operating risks. Should any
one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should
any underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary
materially from those described herein. Although Tinka
believes that assumptions inherent in the forward-looking
statements are reasonable, forward-looking statements are not
guarantees of future performance and accordingly undue reliance
should not be put on such statements due to the inherent
uncertainty therein. Except as may be required by applicable
securities laws, Tinka disclaims any intent or obligation to update
any forward-looking statement.
Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services
