Phenom Reports Historic High-Grade Antimony Mining at King Solomon
Phenom Resources reports significant historical high-grade antimony and silver mining findings at its King Solomon Gold Project. Historic grab samples revealed impressive concentrations of up to 38.86% antimony and 55.16 oz/t silver from one vein, while a 4ft wide shear zone showed 1.3% antimony and 2.8 oz/t silver.
The project features two notable veins: a north vein averaging 0.45m wide, traced for 230m, and a southern vein 79m south of it, traced for 75m. Historical production estimates from the Nevada Bureau of Mines indicate between 100-1,000 tonnes of antimony output.
This antimony discovery gains strategic importance as the US government prioritizes critical metals. While Phenom maintains its primary focus on gold exploration, the presence of antimony, a common pathfinder element in Carlin gold systems, may expedite project permitting with regulators.
Phenom Resources segnala importanti ritrovamenti storici di miniere ad alto tenore di antimonio e argento nel suo King Solomon Gold Project. Campioni storici hanno mostrato concentrazioni impressionanti fino a 38,86% di antimonio e 55,16 oz/t di argento da una singola vena, mentre una zona di taglio larga 4 piedi ha evidenziato 1,3% di antimonio e 2,8 oz/t di argento.
Il progetto presenta due vene significative: una vena settentrionale con una larghezza media di 0,45 m, tracciata per 230 m, e una vena meridionale a 79 m a sud, tracciata per 75 m. Le stime storiche di produzione del Nevada Bureau of Mines indicano una produzione di antimonio compresa tra 100 e 1.000 tonnellate.
Questa scoperta di antimonio assume rilevanza strategica poiché il governo degli Stati Uniti dà priorità ai metalli critici. Pur mantenendo il suo focus principale sull'esplorazione dell'oro, la presenza di antimonio, elemento comune nei sistemi auriferi Carlin, potrebbe accelerare le autorizzazioni del progetto con le autorità regolatorie.
Phenom Resources informa sobre hallazgos históricos significativos de minería de antimonio y plata de alta ley en su Proyecto de Oro King Solomon. Muestras históricas revelaron concentraciones impresionantes de hasta 38,86% de antimonio y 55,16 oz/t de plata en una vena, mientras que una zona de cizalladura de 4 pies de ancho mostró 1,3% de antimonio y 2,8 oz/t de plata.
El proyecto cuenta con dos venas notables: una vena norte que promedia 0,45 m de ancho, rastreada por 230 m, y una vena sur ubicada a 79 m al sur, rastreada por 75 m. Las estimaciones históricas de producción del Nevada Bureau of Mines indican entre 100 y 1,000 toneladas de producción de antimonio.
Este descubrimiento de antimonio adquiere importancia estratégica ya que el gobierno de EE.UU. prioriza los metales críticos. Aunque Phenom mantiene su enfoque principal en la exploración de oro, la presencia de antimonio, un elemento común en sistemas auríferos Carlin, podría acelerar la obtención de permisos del proyecto con los reguladores.
Phenom Resources는 King Solomon Gold Project에서 역사적으로 중요한 고품위 안티몬 및 은 광산 발견을 보고했습니다. 역사적 표본에서는 한 광맥에서 최대 38.86% 안티몬과 55.16 oz/t 은의 인상적인 농도가 확인되었으며, 4피트 폭의 전단대에서는 1.3% 안티몬과 2.8 oz/t 은이 나타났습니다.
이 프로젝트에는 두 개의 주목할 만한 광맥이 있습니다: 평균 폭 0.45m의 북쪽 광맥이 230m까지 추적되었고, 그 남쪽 79m 떨어진 남쪽 광맥은 75m까지 추적되었습니다. 네바다 광산국의 역사적 생산 추정치는 안티몬 생산량이 100~1,000톤 사이임을 나타냅니다.
이 안티몬 발견은 미국 정부가 핵심 금속을 우선시함에 따라 전략적 중요성을 갖습니다. Phenom은 금 탐사에 주력하고 있지만, 카를린 금 시스템에서 흔히 발견되는 안티몬의 존재는 규제 당국과의 프로젝트 허가 절차를 가속화할 수 있습니다.
Phenom Resources rapporte des découvertes historiques significatives de mines d'antimoine et d'argent à haute teneur sur son projet King Solomon Gold. Des échantillons historiques ont révélé des concentrations impressionnantes allant jusqu'à 38,86 % d'antimoine et 55,16 oz/t d'argent sur une veine, tandis qu'une zone de cisaillement de 4 pieds de large affichait 1,3 % d'antimoine et 2,8 oz/t d'argent.
Le projet comprend deux veines notables : une veine nord d'une largeur moyenne de 0,45 m, suivie sur 230 m, et une veine sud située à 79 m au sud, suivie sur 75 m. Les estimations historiques de production du Nevada Bureau of Mines indiquent une production d'antimoine comprise entre 100 et 1 000 tonnes.
Cette découverte d'antimoine prend une importance stratégique alors que le gouvernement américain accorde la priorité aux métaux critiques. Bien que Phenom maintienne son focus principal sur l'exploration de l'or, la présence d'antimoine, un élément souvent indicateur dans les systèmes aurifères de Carlin, pourrait accélérer l'obtention des permis auprès des régulateurs.
Phenom Resources berichtet über bedeutende historische Funde von hochgradigem Antimon- und Silberbergbau im King Solomon Gold Projekt. Historische Proben zeigten beeindruckende Konzentrationen von bis zu 38,86% Antimon und 55,16 oz/t Silber in einer Ader, während eine 4 Fuß breite Scherzonen 1,3% Antimon und 2,8 oz/t Silber aufwies.
Das Projekt umfasst zwei bemerkenswerte Adern: eine nördliche Ader mit einer durchschnittlichen Breite von 0,45 m, die über 230 m verfolgt wurde, und eine südliche Ader 79 m südlich davon, die über 75 m verfolgt wurde. Historische Produktionsschätzungen des Nevada Bureau of Mines geben eine Antimonproduktion zwischen 100 und 1.000 Tonnen an.
Dieser Antimonfund gewinnt an strategischer Bedeutung, da die US-Regierung kritische Metalle priorisiert. Während Phenom den Schwerpunkt weiterhin auf die Goldexploration legt, könnte das Vorkommen von Antimon, einem häufigen Wegweiser-Element in Carlin-Goldsystemen, die Genehmigungsverfahren mit den Regulierungsbehörden beschleunigen.
- Historic high-grade antimony samples found: 12.57% and 38.86% antimony with 5.8 oz/t and 55.16 oz/t silver
- Project has dual resource potential: antimony (critical metal) and gold (Carlin-type)
- Historic antimony production between 100-1,000 tonnes indicates proven mining viability
- Antimony status as US critical metal may fast-track project permitting
- Multiple mineralized veins identified: North vein (230m length) and Southern vein (75m length)
- No current production or revenue streams
- Historic data relies on grab samples, not systematic drilling
- Antimony values in 1980-1995 drill holes not fully evaluated due to incomplete historical analysis
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 29, 2025) - Phenom Resources Corp. (TSXV: PHNM) (OTCQX: PHNMF) (FSE: 1PY0) ("Phenom" or the "Company") reports its King Solomon Gold Project which is one the Company's strong Carlin-type gold targets was originally mined for high-grade antimony and silver. In light of the attention antimony is getting as an important critical metal for the US, and the US government's support to advance key antimony projects, it is worth noting the antimony association on the King Solomon project. The historic high-grade antimony mining may favourably influence the project's permitting priority with regulators.
Two historic grab samples from one vein at King Solomon returned
According to Nevada Bureau of Mines, the estimated production of antimony from the King Solomon Mine was between 100 and 1,000 tones of antimony. Historic reports describe two veins and a shear zone all antimony-bearing (stibnite and antimony oxides). The north vein which averages 0.45m (1.5 ft) wide, up to 0.9m (3ft) wide, was traced for 230m (756 ft) in a northeast-southwest direction by two 9.1m (30 ft) deep inclined shafts, pits and about 300m (1,000 ft) of bulldozer and hand trenching. The north vein is composed of clay, quartz, barite and stibnite (and antimony oxides). Stibnite is present as stringers, blebs, small pods, radiating clusters and single crystals lining vugs. Two historic grab samples from this vein returned
Elevated antimony values are present in some of the 1980-1995 drill holes exploring for gold on King Solomon but was not routinely analyzed in those days so the larger antimony picture at King Solomon has not been evaluated or characterized. Antimony is a common pathfinder element associated with Carlin gold systems. Phenom routinely analyzes for antimony and with its work on King Solomon will report on the extent of antimony in this Carlin-type system. This will not change our focus on gold but be inclusive for antimony and silver.
Dave Mathewson states, "The presence of antimony, in addition to the favorable geology, intrusive centers, etc. were among the criteria that led me to pursue the Monitor Range so vigorously starting in the late 1980's. Both Dobbin and King Solomon in the Monitor Range have notable antimony mineralization."
