Group Eleven Announces Plans for Near-Term Follow-Up Drilling at the Ballywire Discovery and Carrickittle West Target, Ireland

PDF

Vancouver, Canada, September 27, 2022 - Group Eleven Resources Corp. (TSX-V: ZNG; OTC: GRLVF; FRA: 3GE) (“Group Eleven” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce plans for follow-up drill programs at the Ballywire zinc prospect (“Ballywire”), PG West Project (“PG West”, 100% interest) and the Carrickittle West zinc prospect (“Carrickittle West”), Stonepark zinc prospect (“Stonepark” (76.56%-interest), Ireland.

Highlights:

  • Follow-up drilling at the Ballywire discovery (see news release dated September 6, 2022) is expected to begin in 4-6 weeks (upon permitting approvals) and finish by year-end
  • This follow up program is planned to consist of an initial five (5) holes totalling 1,500m, drilled at step-out distances ranging from 100m to 250m from discovery hole G11-468-03 (66m of mineralization, hosting several high-grade zones, including 6.9m of 11.1% Zn, 4.3% Pb and 160 g/t Ag, in a 410m step-out; true widths 80-100% of intercepted width)
  • Subject to encouraging results from the above program, the Company would aim to conduct subsequent drilling to test the wider prospect, which remains open along strike for 3km to the ENE and 1.5km to the W, as well as, up-dip to the NNW for at least 500m
  • At the Carrickittle West target (see news release dated June 16, 2022), drilling is expected to begin later this year (upon permitting approvals and completion of the remaining holes as part of the Company’s ongoing and previously announced 6,000m drill program)
  • The Carrickittle West program is planned to consist of one hole totalling 700m to 1,100m (depending on actual depth to the target horizon), stepping out 300-500m to the N from hole G11-2531-01 (which pierced a large and prospective fault structure)
  • The above hole would be in addition to the previously announced 2,300m Stonepark program
  • Both follow-up programs above are expected to be funded from the Company’s existing treasury

“We are excited to soon begin these two very important follow-up drill programs at our Ballywire and Carrickittle West prospects,” stated Bart Jaworski, CEO. “Our discovery hole at Ballywire, announced a few weeks ago, marks a clear break-through in our exploration efforts in Ireland. Follow-up drilling will be critical in shedding light on the extent and intensity of mineralization at this discovery area.”

“At Carrickittle West, the Company’s drilling this summer intercepted a large and prospective fault structure within the Limerick Volcanic Complex, strongly corroborating management’s view that this prospect has potential to host zinc mineralization similar in style and scale to Glencore’s nearby Pallas Green deposit1. Follow-up drilling at this prospect could have significant positive implications in confirming the potential for large scale mineralized system.”
