Far Resources must now file an assessment report with the Manitoba Mining Recorder, and upon acceptance, Far Resources will be reimbursed for a portion of its costs for the recent helicopter-supported drill program and for expenditures related to its Zoro Lithium Property exploration program in east-central Manitoba. The assessment report is currently under preparation and is expected to be filed early in 2017.
Concurrently, the Company awaits assay results from its 1140 metre drill program at the Zoro lithium property. The initial drill program was focussed on Dyke #1 of seven known dykes. Each of seven drill holes successfully intersected spodumene-bearing pegmatite. Spodumene is an important lithium-bearing ore mineral common in hard rock lithium mines worldwide. A total of 143 sawn core samples from these holes were sent to Activation Laboratories (Ancaster, Ontario) for assay and multi-element analysis. Results will be released by the Company once received.
Keith Anderson, President and CEO, commented, “We anxiously await our assay results from our first drill program on the Zoro lithium property. These results will guide further exploration of Dyke #1 and combined with further historic data interpretation guide us in our second drill program designed to assess six additional known spodumene-bearing pegmatite dykes on the property”.
