FTSSF Discovers High Grade Cobalt Assays from Sampling at Cobalt North

Cobalt exploration and development company First Cobalt Corp. (TSX.V: FCC) (OTCQB: FTSSF) this morning reported high grade cobalt assays up to 2.01 percent cobalt discovered during surface sampling near the past producing Hamilton mine in Cobalt North. “We are continuing to validate these high grade areas of the Cobalt Camp. Broader mineralized systems with lower average grades are more attractive longer term targets as they hold potential for large low-cost, open pit operations,” Trent Mell, president and CEO of First Cobalt, stated in the news release. “These high grade areas may represent the centre of a broader mineralized system similar to the zones recently identified in Cobalt South. The high grade zones could provide early feed for startup operations. Hamilton is one of several areas we plan to explore in 2018 with more than 15,000 metres planned in Cobalt North.”
