Tirex Resources Ltd. reports recent fieldwork has led to the discovery of a large new area of highly prospective territory within the Mirdita Cu-Zn-Au-Ag VMS project, Albania.

The new area was hidden from previous exploration programs by a limestone cap that covers the area. Tirex discovered this new area through the use of modern deep penetrating geophysics, geochemistry, and mapping with modern geological concepts. This discovery more than doubles the prospective VMS exploration target area within this key part of the property.

Tirex’s Director and P.Eng., George Gorzynski states:

In the past, the Mirdita VMS District was a very significant producer mainly based on production from deposits on the Gurthi Trend and part of the Munelle Trend. Our recent work has now more than doubled the prospective VMS area around Munelle Mountain and clearly defined four VMS trends including entirely new, highly prospective exploration areas that have never been explored before. The areas that were historically explored without the benefit of modern exploration techniques hosted multiple producing mines so we are very excited about the great potential these new exploration areas and techniques bring to this historic mining district.”
