3.6 Kilometres Mineralised Strike Defined
Amur Minerals Corporation (“Amur” or the “Company”), explorer and developer of its Russian Far East Kun-Manie nickel-copper sulphide project, is pleased to announce that its final 2017 independently derived analytical drill results have been received. The results confirm that the originally planned 20,000 metre drill programme, initiated on 5 May 2017 (the “Drill programme” or the “2017 drill programme”), have expanded the known mineralised strike length by an additional 2,250 metres to a total of 3,650 metres located at and between the Ikenskoe / Sobolevsky (“IKEN”) and Kubuk (“KUB”) deposits.
The newly defined drill identified mineralisation is projected to be 22.4 metres in thickness and averages 0.80% nickel and 0.25% copper and it is anticipated that there will be a substantial increase in the planned early 2018 update to its JORC Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”) last updated in February of 2017.
