54 rock samples and 11 soil samples were collected during the 2021 field season. A high-grade sample with up to 29.69% antimony was collected from within an 8-10 metre wide sulfide quartz veined mineralized zone. Three sulfide quartz mineralized zones with antimony have been identified in the area.
Key Highlights of the 2021 Rock and Soil Sampling Program at
Three high-grade antimony sulfide quartz mineralization outcrops, KS zone 1, KS zone 2 and KS zone 3, have been identified by rock and soil samples.
A high-grade rock sample (A0027254) with up to 29.69% antimony was collected from an outcrop within an 8-10 m wide sulfide quartz veining mineralized zone, containing minerals of lead-gray stibnite and yellow valentinite. Four surface weathered outcrop samples (A0027255, A0027282-A0027284) assayed Sb grades from 0.18% to 0.59%. The oxidation and weathering of the stibnite minerals on the surface may be responsible for reducing the antimony grade within the surface rock samples.
6 metres of chip samples from the second sulfide quartz antimony mineralization zone (KS zone 2) reported an average of 2.52% antimony including a 2-metre massive sulfide zone with 6.48% antimony and multiple narrow sulfide antimony quartz veins from 1 centimetre to 20 centimetres over 4 metres.
Three rock samples (A0027277-A0027279) were collected from KS zone 3 and reported Sb assays from 0.77% to 2.76%. These rock samples contain typical striated prismatic stibnite crystals.
11 soil samples were collected from between KS zone 1 and KS zone 2 and tested with a handheld XRF analyzer which confirmed a high Sb in soil anomaly within the area.
31 rock geochemical samples show elevated Cu, Mo, As and Sb anomalies for porphyry signatures.

About
Rich in large-scale geological targets/assets, Jaxon has seven porphyry system targets on its 100% controlled
Jaxon pursues the discoveries of deeper, under cover, commercial scale and grade Cu, Au, Ag, polymetallic porphyry epithermal systems associated with distal mineralized, propylitically altered zones nearer to surface. Jaxon's team is made up of experienced model-driven explorationists. Geochemical, geophysical and structural data is collected and integrated to generate 3D models to assist in the visualization and projection of the location of targeted porphyry systems.
Netalzul Mt is Jaxon's most advanced target, the priority of seven identified porphyry epithermal system targets at
