Zephyr Minerals Ltd. announced that through its wholly owned Zimbabwean subsidiary Sutter Mining (Private) Limited ("Sutter"), it has received registration from the Ministry of Mines and Mining Development for the Nyanga North prospect which comprises two staked Special Blocks totaling 201 hectares prospective for gold and base metals in the northeastern part of the Umkondo Basin of Zimbabwe. The Special Blocks cover an area encompassing a postulated 2 kilometer long shear zone which is interpreted from satellite imagery to be the eastern extension of a gossanous gold bearing eluvium zone recently mined by local artisanal miners as evidenced by numerous small pits. In addition, Sutter has made application to the Ministry of Mines and Mining Development for two Exclusive Prospecting Orders ("EPO"), covering approximately 124,000 hectares of gold prospective ground, one of which for 61,000 hectares is located in the Nyanga area surrounding the Special Blocks. The second EPO application covers approximately 63,000 hectares in the Mount Darwin West area. These applications are currently in the review process, and while Sutter is optimistic the EPO's will be granted, timing is not known at present. A news release will be issued upon Zephyr receiving a decision from the Ministry of Mines and Development on these two EPO applications . The gossanous scree slope which has been the target of extensive eluvium gold mining by the artisanal miners is located approximately 370 meters west of the western boundary of Sutter's Special Blocks. The local artisanal miners have been mining the gossanous scree from an area trending east-west and measuring approximately 240 meters by 60 meters on the side of a 100 meter high hill since 2014. As observed from satellite imagery, a 2 kilometer long, east-west trending lineament interpreted to be a shear zone traces the trend of the gossanous scree zone to the east on to the Sutter's Special Blocks. Based on the extensive eluvium mining at the western extremity of the interpreted shear zone, this structure is undoubtedly a highly prospective gold exploration target. An initial, low cost exploration program entailing soil sampling and geological mapping to further characterize the gold-base metal potential of the prospect is scheduled to commence early in Q1-2022. Favourable results from this program, would support a second phase of work encompassing trenching and/or diamond drill testing.
