French and French Polynesian authorities have held an urgent meeting as plans are being drawn up to rescue a large cargo ship stuck on a reef of Raroia in the Tuamotus.

It has been revealed that the Philippines-registered vessel is carrying 20,000 tonnes of zinc and was on a trip from the United States to Australia when it developed engine problems last week.

The 132-metre long ship made no appeal for help and was discovered by locals after it hit the reef.

There is no sign of any marine pollution.

Eighteen people who are reportedly on the ship, Thorco Lineage, will for the time being remain on board.

Reports say the ship's owner and the insurance company are likely to dispatch a powerful tug from California to try to dislodge the ship.

It is expected that it will take about ten days to reach Raroia.</s>Zinc sulfate is an inorganic compound known by the formula ZnSO4. It is a colorless, odorless, and crystalline solid. Historically, it was known as white vitriol. It is easily soluble in water with its aqueous solution, being acidic and slightly soluble in ethanol and glycerol. It has non-oxidizing, nonflammable and noncombustible properties. It is hygroscopic and efflorescent in nature and is associated with four hydration states. Zinc sulfate is produced synthetically by combining zinc ash with aqueous sulfuric acid.

Zinc (Zn) is an essential mineral for human, animal, and plant nutrition. Zinc can is also found naturally in the environment, foods, and water. It is an essential component of enzymes involved in metabolic reactions. Furthermore, it is essential for DNA repair and protecting against oxidative stress. Zinc sulfate is used as a source of zinc in cases of zinc deficiencies. Zinc sulfate is used in the form of dietary supplement to treat zinc deficiencies in human. It is used as a fertilizer and agricultural sprays to treat zinc deficiency in crops and improve soil nutrient value.

Zinc sulfate accounted a strong growth of application in agrochemicals for fertilizers and animal feed supplements. It is applied on crops, especially pecans, deciduous fruits, peanuts, cotton, corn, and citrus, and added to feeds for cattle, swine, and poultry. In past few years, zinc sulfate fertilizer has gained at the expense of zinc oxysulfate, produced from steel furnace fly-ash. Fear of attendant undesirable heavy metals (e.g., chromium) resulted in some oxysulfate displacement in the fertilizer market. Zinc sulfate is preferred over zinc oxide (ZnO) as a fertilizer because of its better solubility in water, low cost and suitability with all soil types will further boost the zinc sulfate demand in the agriculture industry. Besides this, other application areas such as chemical industry and water treatment are having a steady demand and are expected to remain the same. Zinc sulfate consumption is expected to increase in regions with zinc deficiency such as Africa, India, South America, and Australia.

Zinc sulfate is used in animal feeds to treat zinc deficiencies in animals. Besides application as a dietary supplement, zinc sulfate has several applications in chemical industry where it is used as a mordant in dyeing, electrolyte for zinc plating, coagulant in production of rayon (synthetic fiber), and clarifying glue and as a reagent for analytical chemistry. Zinc sulfate is also used as a preservative or protective agent for leather, wood and skin. It is used for water purification process, flotation process of mineral separation, bleaching paper, and electrodeposition. It is used as a raw material for manufacturing latex products, desulphurization process, and pigment lithopone zinc sulfate is an herbicide typically used for moss control.

Some of the major key players of global zinc sulfate market are Midsouth Chemical, Changsha Latian Chemicals Co., Ltd, Rech Chemical Co. Ltd, Tianjin Xinxin Chemical Factory, Alpha Chemicals, Zinc Nacional, Ravi Chem Industries, Balaji Industries, Tianjin Topfert Agrochemicial Co., Old Bridge Chemical, Inc., China Bohigh, Changsha Haolin Chemicals Co., Ltd, Gupta Agri Care, Sulfozyme Agro India Pvt.

About Zinc One Resources Inc.

Zinc One is focused on the exploration and development of prospective and advanced zinc projects in mining-friendly jurisdictions. The Company's key assets are the Bongará Zinc Mine Project and the Charlotte Bongará Zinc Project in north-central Peru. The Bongará Zinc Mine Project was in production from 2007 to 2008, but was closed due to the global financial crisis and concurrent decrease in the zinc price. Past production included 20% zinc grades and recoveries over 90% from surface and near-surface zinc-oxide mineralization. High-grade, zinc-oxide mineralization is known to outcrop between the mined area and the Charlotte Bongará Project, which is nearly six kilometres to the NNW and where past drilling intercepted various near-surface zones with high-grade zinc. Zinc One is managed by a proven team of geologists and engineers who have previously constructed and operated successful mining operations.

A mineralized interval of 10.4 metres grading 44.0% zinc occurs within a zone consisting of more than 90% zinc sulphides (sphalerite). This is the highest-grade zinc intersection ever encountered at Ayawilca over a significant interval. The high-grade mineralization occurs immediately beneath phyllite (metamorphic rock) within a repetition of the Pucara limestone formation which is favourable for mineralization and typically found above the phyllite. The mineralized interval is interpreted to be flat-dipping and close to true thickness. This is the first time that Tinka has tested the proposition that there may be a repetition of the mineralized Pucara limestone under the phyllite encountered at the base of most other holes at Ayawilca. It is notable that such an outstanding zinc intercept has been drilled in the first repetition of the Pucara limestone encountered thus far. Additional drill holes are planned to test for the continuation of the high grade mineralization in this repeated limestone.

The new discovery opens up significant areas of untested potential, both beneath and adjacent to the existing mineral resource. Most of the previous drill holes at Ayawilca were stopped a few metres into the phyllite, which had been considered to be 'basement'. A new interpretation of the geology at West Ayawilca indicated that the favourable limestone unit could be repeated under low angle 'thrust' faults, a concept that is now corroborated.

Three drill rigs continue to operate at the project 24/7 in the resource expansion program. Two rigs are drilling deep holes at West Ayawilca, while the third rig is at South Ayawilca testing for repetitions of the mineralization beneath the South Ayawilca resource.
• 11.9 metres at 39.6% zinc, 0.8% lead, 45 g/t silver & 761 g/t indium from 339.4 metres depth, 10.4 metres at 44.0% zinc, 0.4% lead, 43 g/t silver & 869 g/t indium from 340.6 metres depth; 

Shallower intercepts in A18-129 include:
• 21.2 metres at 9.0% zinc, 0.1% lead, 13 g/t silver & 53 g/t indium from 260.0 metres depth, 

4.2 metres at 19.2% zinc, 0.1% lead, 17 g/t silver & 186 g/t indium from 277.0 metres depth;
• 1.0 metres at 23.7% zinc, 24 g/t silver & 30 g/t indium from 101.1 metres depth*; and
• 1.7 metres at 18.9% zinc & 28 g/t silver from 111.5 metres depth*; and

Note: True thicknesses of the zinc intersections are estimated to be at least 85% of the downhole thicknesses, except for vein intercepts (marked *) where true thicknesses are unknown.

Dr. Graham Carman, Tinka´s President and CEO, stated: "The exceptional zinc grade in hole A18-129 is very exciting as it confirms Ayawilca mineralization can be very high-grade, while a repetition of the favourable Pucara limestone opens up a new exploration target at depth and also down-plunge of the new intercept. Previously, it was thought that the phyllite metamorphic rock represents a 'floor' to the zinc mineralization. Past drill holes were typically stopped a few metres into the phyllite, and some holes at Ayawilca may have been stopped prematurely."

"The objectives of the drill program are to find additional high-grade zinc resources, as well as to improve the geological understanding of the Ayawilca deposit, which is evolving as more holes are drilled. The three-rig drill program is now focused on testing extensions of the zinc resources at West and South Ayawilca, including deeper repetitions of the limestone-hosted replacement mineralization, as well as possible connections of these areas with Central Ayawilca – see Figure 2."

"The three rigs on site are expected to be operating until at least mid-August 2018, at which time the number of rigs will be reviewed subject to results. Drilling at the Zone 3 area, which has been one of our main target areas, will resume later in the year. A Preliminary Economic Assessment is planned for the fourth quarter of 2018."

The main geological rock units observed at Ayawilca are an upper sandstone (Goyllar Group), a limestone (Pucara Formation) which hosts most of the zinc mineralization as sulphide replacement of the limestone, and a lower phyllite metamorphic rock (Excelsior Group). The observation by Tinka geologists of mineralized limestone underneath the phyllite in hole A18-129 is groundbreaking, as it opens up potential for additional zinc resources beneath and adjacent to the existing resources. Of particular importance is that the repeated section of Pucara limestone in A18-129 hosts much higher-grade mineralization than average, and the predominant zinc species is the relatively low iron "ruby" sphalerite.

Hole A18-129 intersected 70 metres of Pucara limestone, 10 metres of phyllite, and then another 70 metres of limestone before cutting phyllite once again. Tinka geologists believe that the repetition in the limestone is as a result of a low-angle reverse fault which lies at the base of the upper phyllite, forming a 'thrust' slice in the geology at West Ayawilca (see Figure 4). Other thrust slices may also occur deeper in the sequence. The faulting is believed to have occurred prior to the zinc mineralization, but the low-angle faults acted as conduits for the mineralization. Zinc mineralization is hosted predominantly in the hanging wall position of the faults. The thrust faulting post-dated the folding of the limestone-sandstone sequence which formed the anticline fold at West Ayawilca.

True thicknesses of the zinc intersections are estimated to be at least 85% of the downhole thickness, except where marked. Significant new drill intercepts are summarized in Table 1 with the strongest intercepts in bold text. Table 2 summarizes the drill collar information for the recent holes.

Drill holes are diamond HQ or NQ size core holes with recoveries generally above 80% and often close to 100%. The drill core is marked up, logged, and photographed on site. The cores are cut in half at the Company's core storage facility, with half-cores stored as a future reference. Half-core is bagged on average over 1 to 2 metre composite intervals and sent to SGS laboratories in Lima for assay in batches. Standards and blanks are inserted into each batch prior to departure from Tinka's core storage facilities. At the laboratory samples are dried, crushed to 100% passing 2mm, then 500 grams pulverized for multi-element analysis by ICP using multi-acid digestion. Samples assaying over 1% zinc, lead, or copper and over 100 g/t silver are re-assayed using precise ore-grade AAS techniques. Samples assaying over 200 ppm tin are re-assayed by fusion methods with an AAS finish (method AAS90B).
