Soil Geochemical Sampling Defines Addition Drill Targets
Amur Minerals Corporation (“Amur” or the “Company”), a nickel-copper sulphide mineral exploration and resource development company focused on far east Russia, announces the results of the first phase of its 2011 exploration programme at its Kun-Manie nickel copper sulphide project located in Amur Oblast.
Included in the 2011 exploration programme was an extensive soil geochemical sampling programme. The programme covered two areas totalling approximately 57.5 square kilometres. The largest area is 15 kilometres in length and 2.5 kilometres in width and was focused along the Krumkon Trend, which is included in the area for which the Company has applied for a mining licence. The trend contains three deposits (Maly Krumkon, Vodorazdelny and Ikenskoe) drilled to Joint Ore Reserve Committee (JORC) standards. The second sampled area, known as Yan Hegde, covered about 20 square kilometres. Yan Hegde is located approximately 10 kilometres to the northeast of the Krumkon Trend. In addition to the soil sampling programme, the following work was undertaken during the 2011 field season:
