Far Resources Completes Phase 2 Drill Program at its Zoro Lithium Property, Snow Lake, Manitoba
Vancouver, BC (FSCwire) - Far Resources Ltd. (CSE:FAT) (FSE:F0R) www.farresources.com (“Far Resources” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the completion of the Phase 2 drill program on its Zoro Lithium Property near Snow Lake, Manitoba as announced on April 4, 2017.
The drill program was designed to expand on the results of the Phase 1 program and the historic 1956 drilling with related assays. The objective of the Phase 2 drill program was to test the Dyke 1 pegmatite within 150m from surface and along strike. The holes were designed to infill previously untested areas of the pegmatite approximately 30m to 50m from historical and Phase 1 drill intersections. The density of the Phase 1 and 2 drillholes are spaced with the intention of working towards the Zoro Lithium Property’s first NI 43-101 resource as defined by NI 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.
A total of 1088 metres of NQ core were completed during the Phase 2 drill program with all seven holes intersecting the spodumene-bearing Dyke 1 pegmatite. The intersections reflect the historical results and those predicted by the three-dimensional model. Of significance in the recently completed program were wide intervals of pegmatite intersected in drillholes FAR17-010 and FAR17-012. FAR17-010 intersected spodumene-bearing pegmatite over 53.7m (162.9-216.6m) and FAR17-012 intersected coarse spodumene crystals (up to 15cm in length) between 103.4m and 115.6m (12.2m).
Subsequent to logging, a total of 167 core samples were shipped to Activation Laboratories (Ancaster, Ontario) an ISO certified laboratory for lithium and multi-element analysis. Results will be reported when all assays have been received.
Keith Anderson, President and CEO, commented, “We are pleased with the results of the Phase 2 drill program and encouraged by the 53.7m of spodumene-bearing pegmatite intersected in drillhole FAR17-010. This intersection confirms the potential for very wide drill intercepts of spodumene-bearing pegmatite beginning at depths of 120m below surface. The consistent coarse spodumene crystals in hole FAR17-012 shows that Dyke 1 can host very significant widths of high-percentage spodumene.”
