Pacific Wildcat Resources Corp.: Further Wide and High Grade Rare Earth Intercepts at Mrima Hill Confirm High Grade Rare Earth Mineralised Zone

15.07.2013  |  Marketwired

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Jul 15, 2013) - Pacific Wildcat Resources Corp. (TSX VENTURE:PAW) ("PAW" or the "Company") is pleased to report additional assay results following on from those reported in its News Release dated 26th June 2013 (See NR 2013-11 titled "Wide and High Grade Rare Earth intercepts show Mrima Hill Mineralisation Open to the South") from the next 655 metres (7 holes) of Reverse Circulation ("RC") drilling at the Mrima Hill Niobium and Rare Earth Project (PAW indirect 70% ownership) in Kenya.

These assay results are from holes drilled across the centre of what is historically understood to be a higher grade zone of Rare Earth mineralization at Mrima Hill. Results continue to demonstrate the presence of Wide and High Grade zones of mineralization and remain open laterally and at depth. In addition elevated niobium ("Nb2O5") results have also been intersected in a number of holes further confirming the potential of this large mineralized system.

Highlights include:

Rare Earths

  • Wide zones of Total Rare Earth Oxides including Yttrium ("TREO") intercepts from surface including 105m at 6.97% TREO which is mineralised to end of hole and includes 35m at 8.50% TREO

  • 105m at 7.17% TREO from surface to end of hole including 53m at 8.12% TREO

  • 100m at 6.18% TREO from surface to end of hole including 13m at 10.59% TREO; and

  • 86m at 6.23% TREO from surface.

Niobium

  • 105m at 0.84% Nb2O5 from surface to end of hole including 31m at 1.15% Nb2O5 from 5m and 15m @ 1.11% Nb2O5 from 41m; and

  • 105m at 0.66% Nb2O5 from surface to end of hole including 37m at 0.98% Nb2O5 from 9m and 5m @ 1.43% Nb2O5 from 100m to end of hole.

President/CEO Comments

PAW's President and CEO, Mr. Darren Townsend, commented, "With the receipt of these further seven high grade holes we can now finalise the updated Niobium Resource Estimate and Inaugural Rare Earth Resource for Mrima Hill which we expect to complete within the next four weeks."

Background to Drill Program and Results

During 2012 a total of 51 RC holes for 4,941m were drilled at Mrima Hill. Of this 37 holes for 3,482 metres had not been sent for analysis. The 7 RC holes forming the basis of this News Release are situated across the center of the southern zone of the high grade TREO area identified by the Kenyan Mines Department in the 1950's (refer to contours on Figure 1).

These results are from holes drilled vertically between 54-105m depth. All holes reported with the exception of Holes PAWRC068 end in mineralisation, remaining open at depth in highly prospective clays.

Figure 1 shows a plan location of the RC drill holes as drilled

Figure 2 depicts a plan view of significant results for TREO mineralization

All samples collected were from the cyclone on the RC drill rig with samples fed through a sample splitter. A sample size of 1-3 kilograms was then submitted to the Nagrom assay labs in Perth with sample preparation being undertaken by the Nagrom assay laboratory. Prepared samples were then dispatched to both the Ultratrace (Nb2O5 analysis by XRF) and Genalysis (for rare earth and matrix analysis using peroxide fusion and acid dissolution by ICP-MS) assay labs in Perth, Western Australia.

Table 1 provides a summary of the TREO results from the Genalysis laboratory in Perth and Table 2 has a summary of Niobium results from the Ultratrace laboratory in Perth.
