/Not for distribution to US newswire services or for release, publication, distribution or dissemination directly, or indirectly, in whole or in part, in or into the United States/TORONTO, Oct. 19, 2023 /CNW/ – Arizona Metals Corp. (TSX: AMC) (OTCQX: AZMCF) (the “Company” or “Arizona Metals”) is pleased to announce the first drill assay results from the Western Target at its Kay Mine Project in Arizona.Drill hole KM-23-113 intersected 3.0 m grading 3.0 g/t Au, 1.3% Zn, and 17 g/t Ag (3.2 g/t AuEq, after recoveries), including 0.9 m at 9.2 g/t Au, 3.4% Zn, and 45 g/t Ag (9.4 g/t AuEq, after recoveries). This drill hole represents the northernmost intercept of a consistent mineralized horizon encountered over a strike length of 735 m on the Western Target (Figure 1). This horizon was intersected in all eight Western Target drill holes. The mineralized horizon exhibits sulphide minerals (pyrite, pyrrhotite, sphalerite, and chalcopyrite) and broad zones of highly anomalous gold, copper, and zinc, accompanied by sodium depletion, a key indicator of hydrothermal activity in volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) systems. The drill intercept in KM-23-113 lies at a depth of 620 metres below surface outcrop assays showing multiple percent copper, running over 385 m of strike length along the mineralized horizon (Figure 1, 2). Mineralization appears to be strengthening to the north, where surface exposures of coherent rhyolite indicate a volcanic center and possible locations of massive sulphide mineralization.Marc Pais, CEO, commented, “We are very encouraged by these preliminary results on the Western Target, indicating an extensive mineralized horizon that shows strong improvement to the north, in agreement …
