Prairie Downs Metals (ASX:PDZ) has now received assay results for all RC drill holes from the recent drill program at Prairie Downs, Western Australia.

Results for seven diamond drill holes will be released as they come to hand over the next few weeks.

The discovery of a further two lodes is highly encouraging and suggests that zinc mineralisation may be much more extensive at Prairie Downs than has been previously thought.

The new lode above Main Lode West is 3m at 4.2 per cent zinc, 14.0pc lead and 126.0 grams per tonne silver and 5m at 9.8pc zinc, 3.4pc lead and 27.1g/t silver, including 2 metres at 19.9pc zinc, 7.2pc lead and 52.3g/t silver.

Also, at Main Lode 2m at 14.1pc zinc, 1.5pc lead and 16.0g/t silver.

At Zed Lode 8m at 6.1pc zinc, 2.9pc lead and 19.1g/t silver.

And a new lode above Zed is 3m at 2.7pc zinc, 1.5pc lead and 5.8g/t silver.

Prairie Downs shares last traded at $1.08.
