12:22 PM EDT, 03/11/2024 (MT Newswires) -- Emerita Resources Corp. ( EMOTF ) announced Monday additional assay results from the ongoing drilling program at La Romanera deposit, part of Emerita's Iberian Belt West (IBW) project, Spain.

IBW hosts three previously identified massive sulphide deposits: La Infanta, La Romanera and El Cura. Results contained in this release are from La Romanera. All deposits are open for expansion.

David Gower, P.Geo., CEO of Emerita said in a statement, "The company is also developing a plan to evaluate numerous geophysical / geochemical targets within the broader IBW property as part of the Mining License planning process."

Assays have been received for diamond drill hole LR167 - one of a pair designed to better define a zone of higher grade and copper enrichment evident in grade contouring of the deposit.

Assay results showed elevated Au and Cu values relative to the Zn and Pb grades. Over the 68.9m interval, Au values ranged from 0.12 g/t to 2.36 g/t (average: 0.91 g/t), and Cu values ranged from 0.25% to 1.34% (average: 0.66%).
