Historic Report Outlines Pegmatite On Durango Ground Adjacent To Nemaska’s Whabouchi Property

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 10:02 AM on Thursday, April 7th, 2016

Logo

  • Announces further historical information on its 100%-owned NMX East Project, located near Nemaska Lithium Corp.’s (TSX.V-NMX) Whabouchi property in northern Quebec
  • Approximately 250 metres north of the eastern claim block of Durango’s NMX East Project, an outcrop was sampled during the sampling program which returned anomalous Ta, Nb, and Sm values

Vancouver, BC / April 7, 2016 – Durango Resources Inc. (TSX.V-DGO), (the “Company” or “Durango”) announces further historical information on its 100%-owned NMX East Project, located near Nemaska Lithium Corp.’s (TSX.V-NMX) Whabouchi property in northern Quebec.

In 2011, Tucana Lithium Corp. (“Tucana”) commissioned an NI 43-101 Technical Report which summarized work completed by Nemaska Exploration Inc. (now Nemaska Lithium Corp.) (“Nemaska”) on behalf of Tucana. (1)

According to the report, in the summer of 2011, mapping was conducted in the northern half of the eastern claim block of Durango’s NMX East property, which identified a pegmatite intrusion situated roughly 2 kilometres northeast along strike from the resource at Nemaska Lithium Corp’s Whabouchi property. The mapped pegmatite strikes northeast across Durango’s entire claim block (~1,200 metres) and may be up to 500 metres wide based on mapping extent. Seven (7) grab samples were taken in and around the pegmatite, however these did not yield anomalous lithogeochemical assay values. (1) *

Approximately 250 metres north of the eastern claim block of Durango’s NMX East Project, an outcrop was sampled during the sampling program which returned anomalous Ta, Nb, and Sm values. This pegmatite is also roughly on strike with the Whabouchi resource. Tucana’s technical report recommends that this target be more thoroughly investigated. (1) *

* The Company cautions that grab samples are selective and may not be representative of the mineralization on the property.

According to the historic report, all samples were grab samples and were analyzed by ALS Minerals, Val-d’Or (Quebec). The analytical methods used correspond to ALS code PGM-ICP23, ME-ICP41, ME-MS81, Li-OG63 and Be-ICP61. The two first codes were only used on three samples to detect precious and base metals; the other three methods were used for the remaining 36 samples. (1)

President Marcy Kiesman stated, “We are pleased that these historically mapped pegmatites may in fact cover up to 1.2km of Durango’s property, providing us with an excellent target area for upcoming surface sampling, VLF survey, and future drilling.”

The technical contents of this release were approved by Mr. Case Lewis, P.Geo., a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. The property has not yet been the subject of a National Instrument 43-101 report.

KWG Applauds Important Canadian Governmant Budget Support

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 2:13 PM on Thursday, March 24th, 2016

Kwglarge

  • Pleased that the Government of Canada made allocations in the budget announced on Tuesday that will assist development of the Ring of Fire
  • As reported by the Mining Association of Canada, the budget addressed a number of issues that it had raised, including:
    • Investments in key regulatory agencies, such as the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency (CEAA) and Fisheries and Oceans Canada, that will help ensure sufficient capacity exists to carry out efficient regulatory reviews of major mining projects.

TORONTO, ONTARIO–(March 24, 2016) – KWG Resources Inc. (CSE:KWG) (FRANKFURT:KW6) (“KWG”) is very pleased that the Government of Canada made allocations in the budget announced on Tuesday that will assist development of the Ring of Fire. As reported by the Mining Association of Canada, the budget addressed a number of issues that it had raised, including:

  • Investments in key regulatory agencies, such as the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency (CEAA) and Fisheries and Oceans Canada, that will help ensure sufficient capacity exists to carry out efficient regulatory reviews of major mining projects.
  • Funding to support CEAA’s capacity to undertake meaningful consultations with Indigenous groups.
  • New, long overdue investment in Natural Resources Canada’s science laboratories that promises to support new partnerships in clean tech and innovation with the mining sector.
  • Support for the Canadian Northern Economic Development Agency to continue its role in supporting northern regulatory efficiencies.
  • Renewal of the Mineral Exploration Tax Credit at a critical time for Canada’s junior exploration sector.

As announced on Tuesday also, KWG is in the process of filing the National Phase in Canada, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Kazakhstan, South Africa, South Korea, Turkey and the USA under the Patent Cooperation Treaty to seek patent grants for its method to reduce chromite ore to metallics utilizing natural gas, a carbon reductant, and a catalyst formulation. The grant of a patent will be sought for the invention in each of these countries where the method might have commercial application and viability.

Natural Resources Canada’s CanMet research facilities are presently engaged in a program to analyze the opportunities for development of the Ring of Fire. As part of its research, the KWG direct reduction method will be evaluated for its economic efficacy and potential contribution to greenhouse gas reduction. KWG management participates in supervision of the CanMet research with membership in both the Steering Committee and the Technical Committee respectively developing and overseeing the research programs.

The abstract for a paper presented to the 2015 Conference of Metallurgists titled: Reducing energy consumption by alternative processing routes to produce ferrochromium alloys from chromite ore cited:

A techno-economic study on the new process identifies a reduction in overall energy consumption of 80% against conventional processing and approximately 40% lower than the current best practice. By utilising more natural gas than coal based energy sources, the KWG process is able to show an overall 50% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions compared with the most energy efficient current practice. The impact of the new process on future processing is therefore regarded as highly significant, with global energy reductions equivalent to the effect of completely eliminating energy demand from a country the size of Italy. (emphasis added)

The study concluded that the potential for this process to completely revolutionise the global ferrochrome industry should not be underestimated. Its impact reaches far beyond exploitation of a regional natural resource.

About KWG:

KWG has a 30% interest in the Big Daddy chromite deposit and the right to earn 80% of the Black Horse chromite where resources are being defined. KWG also owns 100% of CCC which has staked claims and conducted a surveying and soil testing program, originally for the engineering and construction of a railroad to the Ring of Fire from Aroland, Ontario. KWG subsequently acquired intellectual property interests, including a method for the direct reduction of chromite to metalized iron and chrome using natural gas. The Company is prosecuting patent applications for both the direct reduction method and for a method of producing high purity chromium metal by continuous smelting.

Nevada Energy Metals Acquires New San Emidio Desert Li Project in Nevada

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:10 AM on Wednesday, March 23rd, 2016

Bff_hub-2_copy

  • Announce the staking of 86 placer claims (approximately 1720 acres) in the San Emidio Desert, Washoe County, Nevada
  • 95 km northeast of Reno, the home of Tesla Corporation’s new lithium-ion battery “Giga Factory

March 23, 2016 / Vancouver, British Columbia- Nevada Energy Metals Inc. “the Company” TSX-V: BFF (OTC: SSMLF) (Frankfurt: A2AFBV) is pleased to announce the staking of 86 placer claims (approximately 1720 acres) in the San Emidio Desert, Washoe County, Nevada, 95 km northeast of Reno, the home of Tesla Corporation’s new lithium-ion battery “Giga Factory”.

The San Emidio Desert basin is an alkali playa environment underlain by unconsolidated sediments and clays being fed by lithium bearing geothermal fluids (US. Geothermal analyses) reported in bounding faults, and/or faults along the east side of the basin. Since mid-Tertiary, the rocks on the eastern edge of the San Emidio Desert have undergone extensive hydrothermal alteration and the presence of near-surface thermal fluids, suggest that the thermal fluids represent deep circulation of meteoric water (Moore, J.N., 1997).

The property adjoins the Empire geothermal power plant with production of 4.6 MW of electricity from a 155?C resource thereby providing a substantial heat source for the circulation of meteoric groundwater believed important in the formation of lithium brine deposits as found at Clayton Valley, Nevada host to North Americas preeminent lithium brine production. US Geothermal has reported anomalous lithium values in the trace element analysis of their geothermal brines at Empire (USGS-Report 87-4062)

Previous work by other operators exploring the playa have reported lithium value in sediments up to 312 ppm and the average of sampling being in the order of 250 ppm.

Harry Barr, Chairman of Nevada Energy Metals stated “The company is pleased to report that no royalties, option payments or work expenditures have been incurred as a result of the acquisition of the San Emidio lithium exploration project.

  • Announced the commencement of a Diamond Drilling Program on the Ogden Gold Property
  • Consist of 8 mining claims (70 mineral claim units) covering 1,120 hectares situated in the Porcupine mining division, district of Cochrane, in the Ogden Township, Ontario
  • Claims are contiguous and to the east of the Timmins Porcupine West Property

ROUYN-NORANDA, QC–(March 22, 2016) – Explor Resources Inc. (“Explor” or “the Corporation”) (TSX VENTURE: EXS) (OTCQX: EXSFF) (FRANKFURT: E1H1) (BERLIN: E1H1) is pleased to announce the commencement of a Diamond Drilling Program on the Ogden Gold Property. The property is located 12 kilometers southwest of the city of Timmins, Ontario. The property consist of 8 mining claims (70 mineral claim units) covering 1,120 hectares situated in the Porcupine mining division, district of Cochrane, in the Ogden Township, Ontario. These claims are contiguous and to the east of the Timmins Porcupine West Property as shown on the attached map. Access to the property is via an all-weather road from Highway 101 to the west of the property.

The exploration program will consist of 3,000 meters of diamond drilling. This diamond drill program will concentrate on geophysical targets as identified by Explor’s recent ground geophysical survey and IP work conducted by Inmet and Knick Exploration. Analysis of existing geophysical data along with Explor’s recently completed work has revealed a major geological structure similar to the one located on Explor’s Timmins Porcupine West Gold Property. It would appear to be a continuation of the Bristol Porphyry on the other side of the Mattagami River fault. Previous reconnaissance exploration work by Inmet Mines defined several induced polarization anomalies (1997) and these are incorporated with recent I.P. survey data as the surveys were completed by the same service company and all original data has been acquired by Explor Resources.

The property has been previously explored by Hollinger Mines, Tex-Sol Exploration, Inmet Mining Corporation, Amax Mineral Exploration, Noranda Exploration and Knick Exploration. The majority of the holes drilled by previous operators were less than 100 meters in length. Historically on the Ogden Property, the only hole that hit significant mineralization was a diamond drill hole by Tex-Sol Exploration in 1965 which returned 6.0 g/t Au over 9.1 m at a shallow depth. On the TPW Gold Property significant mineralization was intersected below 300 meters of vertical depth requiring drill holes of 500 to 600 m in length.

The most significant deposits in Timmins are spatially associated with porphyry units that are in proximity to the Porcupine Destor Fault. The deposits appear to be also associated with splay faults that trend off and to the North of the Porcupine Destor fault inside an interpreted splay fault corridor.

The Ogden Property is contiguous on the east side of the Timmins Porcupine West Property. The Timmins Porcupine West Project has as a Target Model “The Hollinger-McIntyre-Coniaurum System.” The Hollinger-McIntyre-Coniaurum (HMC) System has produced a total of over 30 million oz of gold is spatially associated with the Pearl Lake Porphyry. The high-grade gold bearing quartz veins which hosted the bulk of the gold at the HMC occurred in the adjacent mafic volcanics, located outboard from the porphyry itself.
