Amur Minerals Corporation (“Amur” or the “Company”), the nickel-copper sulphide mineral exploration and resource development company focused on the far east of Russia, is pleased to inform shareholders that it has successfully completed the Flangovy infill drilling phase of its 2015 drill programme. The infill programme targeted the 29 million tonne Flangovy Inferred resource area, and has successfully confirmed the continuity of the mineralisation throughout the 800 metre long target. A total of 26 holes indicate the Flangovy Inferred mineralisation has an average length weighted nickel grade of 0.79% with copper being 0.21%. The average ore hole contains a total of 26.9 metres of mineral with the discrete intersections being 14.2 metres. The continuity of high grade mineralisation suitable for underground mining methods, had been confirmed and 78% of the defined nickel is contained within discrete lenses (in excess of 0.7% nickel) averaging 9.3 metres (18.9 metres per ore hole) in thickness. The grade is in excess of 1.0% nickel.
