DRILLING AT FIRST NARROWS' CHESTER PROPERTY CONTINUES TO DEMONSTRATE CONTINUITY OF COPPER MINERALIZATION
First Narrows Resources Corp. has completed 22 vertical diamond drill holes (C-06-019 to 040) totalling 1365.5 metres on the eastern shallow end of the gently inclined Chester copper-polymetallic feeder deposit. More than 350 samples, totalling 333 core metres and averaging 15.15 core metres per hole, have been shipped for assay to date.
The style of the copper mineralization (chalcopyrite) is essentially the same in all holes, with variable percentages of disseminated and stringer chalcopyrite, occasionally reaching up to 30 to 75 per cent of the rock over narrow intervals. The drill program continues to demonstrate the presence of continuous high-grade copper zones within the broader lower-grade alteration envelope of the feeder structure.
Hole C-06-034, an infill hole between C-06-022 and 023, confirmed the continuity of the copper stringer mineralization intersecting the copper zone over a length from 27 to 38.8 metres, including high-grade copper mineralization from 29.6 metres to 32.9 metres. To view a photo of the chalcopyrite mineralization in hole C-06-034, please visit the company's website.
Analyses for secondary metal credits (cobalt, indium, bismuth, gold, silver) will be carried out on composited sample intervals determined by the copper assay results and an in-house Chester project scoping study.
Earnest Brooks, PGeo, is the company's qualified person on the Chester project. Mr. Brooks has 37 years experience in mine geology and exploration in the Chibougamau and Bathurst mining camps, including 15 years at the BMS mines, Bathurst, N.B.
The Chester property is located in the southern part of the Bathurst mining camp approximately 53 kilometres west of the city of Miramichi and 72 kilometres southwest of the city of Bathurst, N.B.
