Colorado Announces: New Coincident Mag and IP Anomaly 5,000 m Drill Program Commences
WEST KELOWNA, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired) -- 06/19/13 -- COLORADO RESOURCES LTD. (TSX VENTURE: CXO) ("Colorado" or the "Company") is pleased to report the results of ground magnetic geophysical surveys recently completed and also announce the start of a 5,000 m drill program on its 100% owned North ROK Property (the "Property") located 15 kms northwest of Imperial Metals Red Chris Mine in NW British Columbia.
As previously reported in news release dated June 12, 2013 Colorado discovered a new Induced Polarization (I.P) chargeability anomaly that is 1 km north of the discovery drillhole in an area of limited outcrop. Preliminary modeling of the recently completed geophysics indicates that this new I.P chargeability anomaly measures 500-800 m wide and 1400 m long. Ground magnetic surveys conducted over the same area revealed two anomalies flanking the I.P chargeability anomaly and one anomaly in the core of the I.P anomaly. The magnetic anomalies flanking the I.P anomaly measure approximately 300 m by 750 and 200 m by 700 m; the magnetic anomaly in the core of the I.P chargeability anomaly measures approximately 500 m by 700 m. See map attached (to view, visit the following link: http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/Colorado_North_ROK.pdf) and Company's website www.coloradoresources.com for details.
The Company is encouraged that these new coincident I.P and magnetic anomalies appear to have a similar geophysical signature to areas of known mineralization on the Property.
The Company is also pleased to announce that a 5000 m diamond drill program has commenced on the property within the existing permits.
Adam Travis, the Company's President and CEO stated "I'm very pleased with the progress our technical team has made on our North ROK property to not only fine tune our next phase of drilling but to also advance other exploration targets on our claims. I look forward to a very exciting next round of drilling."
