Chrysalis Resources has completed a 26 hole, 2,145 metre reverse circulation drilling program on its Shikila copper project in north-western Zambia.

The program tested eight 120 part per million copper in soil anomalies within a 24 kilometre long, semi-continuous copper trend, specifically targeting supergene copper mineralisation between 20 and 40 metres below surface.

Drilling at the two north-western soil anomalies and the central anomaly over a magnetic high intercepted deeply weathered, altered, magnetic and pyritic gabbro units.

All samples containing elevated copper, determined via XRF, have been submitted to the SGS Laboratory in Kalulushi for copper and gold analysis, with assays pending.
