AMERICAN TUNGSTEN ANNOUNCES UPDATES ON ITS IMA PROJECT AND INVESTOR RELATIONS EFFORTS
American Tungsten Corp. has shared continued progress on its rehabilitation efforts at the Ima mine in Patterson, Idaho, and will be giving investors an opportunity to ask questions on current progress at a coming live investor webinar.
Operational highlights
The company has expanded the scope of its phase 1 drilling program, which will now include approximately 10,000 feet of drilling across three stations on the D level and two stations on the Zero level. The drill program is designed to establish geological continuity of the polymetallic tungsten quartz vein system up-dip of the D level and also to test additional vein systems from the Zero level intersected in mid-2000s Gentor drill holes.
The following progress supports the commencement of the diamond drilling program scheduled for the end of November.
D-level progress:
- Excavation of the access crosscut to the diamond drill stations on D level continues and is now approximately 54 per cent complete (approximately 100 feet), with approximately 86 feet of excavation remaining; it is expected that the first diamond drill station will be reached by the end of next week.
- The drill rig and power packs are on site and will be mobilized underground once the drill station is expanded and bolted.
- In parallel, development of the access drift will continue toward the second and third diamond drill stations.
- All work at the D level continues to be double shifted by the contractor to expedite the timeline of the phase 1 drill program.
Zero-level progress:
- Rehabilitation of the Zero level continues, and it is estimated that the remaining visible debris area will be cleared by the end of next week.
- This will allow access to previously rehabilitated areas on the Zero level, including new drifts around unstable areas developed by 1970s operations.
- At this time, American Tungsten will be able to assess what, if any, additional rehabilitation at the Zero level may be needed to support drilling from the Zero level.
- Additional work staff have been secured by the contractor to ensure that the work progress at the Zero level is being performed in parallel with work progress at the D level.
The company has already begun initial planning for phase 2 of its diamond drill program that will extend the scope of the program into Q1 2026 and looks forward to continuing to provide updates to the market in the coming weeks.
