FTSSF Announces Commencement of Drilling in Cobalt North

Cobalt exploration and development company First Cobalt Corp. (TSX.V: FCC) (OTCQB: FTSSF) this morning announced its commencement of drilling in Cobalt North, near the historic Drummond, Kerr and Conisil mines. The new program comes on the heels of the company’s completion of a maiden drilling program in Cobalt South that identified three distinct mineralized areas that will require follow up. “In our first drill campaign, we successfully identified three distinct cobalt mineralized zones in Cobalt South that warrant follow up. As we focus on Cobalt North for the second leg of the winter drill campaign, we have combined a rich set historical data with our own field work to build a 3D geological model,” Trent Mell, president and CEO of First Cobalt, stated in the news release. “In Cobalt North, we have several opportunities to identify resources in different styles of mineralization that would not have been considered historically. We believe this program will increase our options to find new cobalt resources in the Camp.”
