Surface Exploration Begun at Chilton Cobalt
Burlington, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - May 9, 2017) - The shareholders of Green Swan Capital Corp. (TSXV: GSW) (the "Company" or "Green Swan") recently passed a resolution to change the Company's name to "CBLT Inc." to demonstrate the Company's focus on cobalt exploration and development. The Company has reserved the trading symbol "CBLT" pending the formal name change. Regulatory approval will be required for the corporate name change and the symbol change.
Further to the name change, the Company announces that it has begun surface exploration at its 100%-owned Chilton Cobalt property in the Laurentian Region of Quebec. Geological mapping, rock/soil sampling, and geophysics will be implemented, with the goal of this program to provide targets for future trenching and/or drilling.
Chilton Cobalt consists of nine claims totaling 497 hectares (almost five square kilometers). Historic work by third parties on Chilton Cobalt identified four distinct cobalt-copper-nickel showings. Grab samples from one of the showings returned values up to 2,500 parts per million (ppm) cobalt, 3,300 ppm copper and 12,300 ppm nickel. The Company did not perform that work and cannot verify the accuracy or thoroughness of historic work. (see the Company's news release of February 28, 2017).
The one million dollar non-brokered financing announced April 17, 2017 includes Quebec flow-through funding, which will be used to finance this phase of exploration on Chilton.
