MONTREAL, Oct. 3, 2011 /CNW Telbec/ - Colt Resources Inc. ('Colt' or the 'Company')
(FRA: P01) (OTCQX: COLTF) is very pleased to announce that it has received final analytical results for nine holes from its ongoing drilling campaign at its Tabuaço (São Pedro das Águias) tungsten project, located in the Company's wholly owned Armamar‐Meda concession in northern Portugal.These results are part of an ongoing drilling program designed to provide data on the internal grade and structural consistency of the deposit and to test for lateral extensions of several richly mineralized skarn horizons.
Colt's current drilling program is designed to confirm and expand the historical, non NI 43‐101 compliant resource estimate of 1 million tonnes grading 0.87% WO(3) (SPE‐BRGM JV, early 1980's). These, and previously reported, results indicate that the deposit is open in all directions and that grades and thicknesses are increasing as one steps away from the historical resource zone.
Nikolas Perrault, President and CEO of Colt, says, 'Results of these holes continue to confirm that the deposit model is robust and that the predicted grades and thicknesses are being achieved.'
Four diamond drill rigs are currently in operation on the deposit so as to increase data flow as the company moves towards the preparation and delivery of an initial NI 43-101 resource estimate later this year.
The results are summarized as follows:

* True Width was determined assuming the mineralization has an average strike of 135(0) and an average dip of -20(o).
Our geological team has reported that drillholes DHT-21 and DHT-27 were drilled close to a fault zone and did not intersect significant mineralization.
Quality Assurance / Quality Control (QA/QC)
Sample intervals are reported as both metres (m) downhole and as true thickness, which have been calculated using cross sectional interpretation of the mineralized intercepts in three dimensions. The actual dip of the skarn controlled mineralization is generally shallow.
All drill core is transported by Company personnel from drill site to a nearby secure storage facility for logging and sampling. Sampling intervals are defined after core logging and determination of scheelite content by examination under short‐wave UV‐light. One half of the core is sent for analysis, while the other half is retained in the core boxes for future reference.
Samples are sent by courier to OMAC Laboratories Ltd, Galway, Ireland or to ALS Laboratory Group, Seville, Spain. Samples are analyzed for W and Sn using a metaborate fusion followed by XRF. Assay results for tungsten are reported by the laboratory as W%. WO(3) values are calculated using a conversion factor of 1.2611.
A set of standards, duplicates and blanks is inserted by Colt into the sample stream on a regular basis in addition to the laboratory's own internal QA/QC standards and duplicates. QA/QC results to date are well within the accepted norm.
