Cobalt Power Group Reports 1.7% Cobalt, with Significant Additional Battery Component Metals, from Successful Drill Program at Smith Project

14.11.2017  |  CNW
VANCOUVER, Nov. 14, 2017 - Cobalt Power Group Inc. (the "Company") (TSX.V: CPO, OTC Pink: CBBWF) is pleased to report positive results from the Phase 1, 9-hole, 1,896 m (6,220 ft.) drill program at its Smith Cobalt project in Cobalt, Ontario.

Highlights:

  • Several zones with high-grade cobalt and silver were intersected.
  • Thick, highly anomalous zones of battery-related component metals (Cu, Ni, Zn) were intersected in multiple holes.
  • Multiple mineralized veins were intersected in most holes.
  • Confirmed and characterized vein swarms mapped from historical mine workings.
  • Confirmed that the Smith Cobalt property lies in the same stratigraphic and structural setting as the nearby Deer Horn Mine, owned and formerly operated by Agnico Eagle.

Assay Highlights Include:

  • 1.71% Co and 42.5 g/t Ag over 0.10 m in hole 17-03.
  • 1.85 g/t Ag over 56.0 m in hole 17-03
  • 1.39 g/t Ag over 72.5 m in hole 17-04
  • 0.22% Cu over 14.0 m in hole 17-04
  • 0.13% Zn over 33.0 m in hole 17-04
  • 0.11% Ni over 30.66 m in hole 17-06
  • 0.17% Pb over 17.49 m in hole 17-04

"We have attained our primary objective for the drill program: to verify the trace of the vein swarms mapped from historical mine workings.  From the old mine data, we know that cobalt and silver grades within the veins are highly variable and contain an extreme nugget effect. This has been verified by extensive outcrop sampling," Chris M. Healey, P.Geo and VP Exploration, comments. "We intersected several zones with high-grade cobalt and silver. Adding even more potential for this property is the fact that we encountered zones of base metal mineralization (Cu, Ni, Zn) as well."

"The results of this first round of drilling are encouraging. Not only have we confirmed the presence and trend of the veins indicated on historic maps of Smith Cobalt, but we've also established that they are mineralized," comments Dr. Andreas Rompel, President & CEO. "We have intersected significant cobalt grades as well as base metal grades in copper, nickel and zinc. For confirmation of grade and strike extent of the veins intersected around the Smith Cobalt shaft, we are looking forward to Phase 2 drill results. These combined results will assist us with the interpretation process needed for the next steps in the exploration of the Smith Cobalt project and environs."

Phase 1 drill results were significantly delayed because of anomalous cobalt analyses from one of the commercial assay standards used, as determined during the QA/QC process. Certified commercial standards, called Certified Reference Material (CRM), are sample materials with certified assay values from an independent, accredited laboratory. These standards are inserted into the chain of samples at irregular intervals to check the accuracy of the assaying technique at the laboratory being used.  After a review by the Company's Qualified Person, 55 samples, each with significant Co values in the initial testing, were sent to a second laboratory (AGAT) for check assays.  These results show that, although the cobalt assays for the standards were incorrect, the results from the core from the two laboratories were comparable.  The Company's QP is now satisfied that the initial results reported for the core analyses are acceptable, and are therefore reported in this release.

Also, the Phase 2 drill program has recently concluded, with 16 holes drilled for a total of 2,306 m (7,556 ft.).  Assay results will be reported when received, accepted and reviewed by the Company.
