Metals Creek Resources Corp. (TSXV: MEK) has completed its diamond drilling program at the Tillex Copper Project, located 65 km east of Timmins, Ontario. The program targeted near-surface mineralized graphitic argillites and dacitic tuffs to upgrade areas with drilling and enhance the current geological model.
The drilling intercepted chalcopyrite mineralization within mineralized graphitic argillites, dacites, and porphyry dikes. Two shallow vertical drill holes were completed outside the current mineralized envelope, with one hole showing promising results after collaring into mineralized graphitic argillite and porphyry containing chalcopyrite. Some areas remain inaccessible due to wet ground conditions and will be drilled later this winter once conditions improve.
Metals Creek Resources Corp has successfully closed its non-brokered private placement financing, raising total gross proceeds of $425,750. The company issued 11,650,000 flow-through units at $0.035 per unit and 600,000 non flow-through units at $0.03 per unit.
Each flow-through unit includes one flow-through common share and half a warrant, with full warrants exercisable at $0.07 for 24 months. Non flow-through units comprise one common share and one warrant, exercisable at $0.05 for 24 months. The company paid $27,195 in finders' fees and issued 777,000 broker warrants.
Proceeds will fund drilling at the Tillex Copper Project and Shabaqua Corners Gold Property.

Metals Creek Resources Corp. (TSXV: MEK) announced results from the third hole of their diamond drilling program at the Tillex Copper Project in Ontario. Hole TX24-022 yielded significant results with a 92.05-meter intercept of 2.12% Copper and 12.18 g/t Silver. The intersection included a higher-grade interval of 4.02% Cu and 19.70 g/t Ag over 18.40m. Mineralization consists of chalcopyrite within mineralized graphitic argillites with local pyrite and pyrrhotite. The complex structural folding at the Tillex Deposit requires tighter drill spacing for proper mineralization definition.

The hole intercepted 110 meters of 1.69% Copper and 7.05 g/t Silver, marking the longest intercept to date at the project. Two higher-grade zones were identified: 2.46% Cu over 26.72m and 3.04% Cu over 23.60m. The mineralization consists of chalcopyrite in various forms with local pyrite and pyrrhotite. The drill hole targeted section 150N to define a prominent flexure in the mineralized stratigraphy, located 65 km east of Timmins and 45 km from the Kidd Creek Met site.
Metals Creek Resources Corp. (TSXV: MEK) has announced results from the first hole of its recent diamond drilling program at the Tillex Copper Project in Ontario.
