Connemara Mining Company plc was established in 2006 by veterans of the Irish zinc industry to exploit zinc opportunities in Ireland and currently holds 38 prospecting licences in central and south-west Ireland. Connemara’s licences are for some or all of the base metals (Bm), barite (b), gold (g), silver (s), and platinum group elements (PGE). The Connemara exploration philosophy is trendology and closeology - follow the mineralised trends and obtain ground as close as possible to existing or former zinc/lead mines.
Connemara to start drilling at zinc property in Limerick this month
Connemara Mining Co PLC (AIM: CON) said drilling is scheduled to start later this month on the Connemara ground in Limerick, where Teck Resources (TSX, NYSE: TCK; formerly Teck Cominco) is operator and holds a 75 percent interest.
The focus is to develop the size of the Stonepark and Stonepark North zinc lenses and to test new anomalies on the 16 licenses, the group told shareholders at today’s AGM.
Work is continuing on the Castlemaine block where good results are being found, and extensive geophysical and geochemical work is ongoing on its other licenses.
The zinc price has recently recovered to a level that is economic for Irish projects, it added.
