New Zink Mineralisations discovered in the Dannemora iron ore field
- 7.5 m core section grading 4.5 % Zn (or 18.0 m grading 2.5% Zn).
-14.0 m core section grading 4.1% Zn.
Drill holes indicate a new Zinc Mineralization
A new diamond drilling programme in the southern part of the Dannemora iron ore field commenced in February 2008. The results from the two first drill holes are rather encouraging. Both holes intersect a partly massive sulphide mineralisation consisting of mainly pyrrhotite and pyrite but also some sphalerite.
Drill hole DDH 3012 intersected a semi massive sulphide mineralisation at a depth of approx 115 m. The mineralised core section has a length of 18.0 m grading 2.5% zinc (including a 7.5 m sub-section grading 4.5% zinc). The other drill hole (DBH 3013) was drilled in the same section. At a depth of 105 m it intersected a massive sulphide mineralisation represented by a 3,7 m core section grading 2.0 % zinc and a 5.4 m core section grading 1.6 % zinc. The mineralised section are cut by a felsic dike.
A section across the mineralised zone and a full list of the assay results are presented in Appendix 1.
Two more drill holes have been completed. Both intersected massive to semi-massive sulphide mineralizations. Analytical results from these holes are expected within a couple of weeks.
Zink mineralization indicated in the core from an old drillhole
Relogging of cores from holes drilled in the southern part of the Dannemora iron ore field has revealed an earlier not known zinc mineralization.
A 14 m mineralized core section grading 4.1 % zinc was discovered in DDH 271. The mineralization is located at a depth of about 250 m, in the hanging wall of an iron mineralization. A full list of the assay results from DDH 271 is presented in Appendix 2.

Dannemora Mineral AB is a mining and exploration company, with the main goal to recommence the mining operations in the Dannemora iron ore mine. Furthermore the Company is exploring base and precious metals in several areas in Bergslagen where the potential for finding feasible mineralizations is considered to be good.
Dannemora Mineral consists of the mother company Dannemora Mineral AB and the two fully owned subsidiary companies Dannemora Magnetit AB, responsible for the operations of the Dannemora iron ore mine, and Dannemora Prospektering AB, responsible for regional and local exploration.
The Company's most important asset is the iron ore deposit at Dannemora and the activities will initially mainly focus on the mining of this deposit.
The company's Certified Advisor on First North is E.Öhman J.or Fondkommission AB.
