Terra Balcanica Resources Corp. (CSE:TERA) (FRA:UB10) is pleased to highlight the polymetallic potential of its Viogor-Zanik project in Bosnia in anticipation of the Phase III drilling campaign.

After 2,200 m of diamond drilling completed at Chumavichi, high grade Ag-Sb-Pb-Zn-Au mineralizations have been confirmed at three targets spanning 2 km of strike along a shallow, fault-hosted, intermediate sulfidation, polymetallic vein system (Figures 1).

At the Company’s other Viogor-Zanik target of Brezani (Figure 2), Terra discovered a retrograde, chlorite-overprinted gold skarn system starting from surface and superimposed on a >1.2 km long, NE-shallowing Ag-Sb-Pb-Zn mineralized, fault-hosted permeability corridor (see the Company’s news release from April 11^th, 2024). Here, with the maiden diamond drill hole BREDD002, Terra intercepted a 20-m wide, high grade, antimony-silver mineralization (see the Company’s news release from January 20^th, 2025).

The significant potential of silver (Ag) and antimony (Sb) mineralization in Bosnia is highlighted by the drill results below (Table 1).

Chumavichi target

Table 1. Previously released Terra Balcanica drill core assays from the Chumavichi target. Interval lengths reported are drilled lengths, not true widths. Silver equivalents (Ag Eq*) are the original metal equivalents recalculated based on the current metal prices of US$3,375/oz for gold (Au), US$34.45/oz for silver (Ag), US$1.22/lb for zinc (Zn), US$25.62/lb for antimony (Sb) and US$0.89/lb for lead (Pb). Metal recoveries of 90% Au, 93% Ag, 95% Sb, 94% Pb and Zn are applied to all assays based on published metallurgical tests from the analogous polymetallic deposit mined by Adriatic Metals plc.

Brezani target

The 674 m Brezani drillhole BREDD002 has intercepted base metal-rich (Sb-Ag),epithermal mineralization between 482.1 and 505 m of depth yielding . The zone of mineralization consists of banded veins and massive sulphide-cemented breccias with structural and mineralogical characteristics of low and intermediate sulphidation epithermal deposits. The upper vein contact is sharp with minimal alteration progressing into the hornfels, whereas the vein footwall is brecciated and strongly clay altered. The margins of the vein host repeating bands of chalcedonic quartz, rhodochrosite, calcite, sulphides, and sulphosalts including stibnite, pyrite, arsenopyrite, sphalerite, galena, and jamesonite. The core of the mineralized zone is dominated by hydrothermal breccia with a sulphide-quartz-carbonate cement and banded vein fragments as framework.

Silver equivalents (Ag Eq*) are the original metal equivalents recalculated based on the current metal prices. Metal recoveries of 90% Au, 93% Ag, 95% Sb, 94% Pb, and Zn are applied..

Figure 2. Section profile through the Brezani target integrating the location of the NE-shallowing, tabular mineralized structure identified downhole in BREDD002 between 482 and 505 m with the magnetic shell and smoothed conductivity voxel clipped to values above 27 mS/m. The conductivity feature is interpreted as the continuation of the host structure dominated by Sb-Ag-Zn-Pb sulphides and clay within the broken rock mass (click here to view image).

The intercept coincides with a shallowing subsurface conductivity anomaly potentially indicating a base- and precious metal mineralized zone with a volume defined by 1,200 m length down dip towards WSE, 650 m width along NNW-SSE trending strike and up to 20 m in width although similar fault-hosted IS epithermal systems tend to pinch and swell along strike and down dip (Figure 2).
