    Explor Resources Inc. (“Explor” or “the Corporation”) (TSXV:EXS)(OTCQB:EXSFF)(FRANKFURT:E1H1)(BERLIN:E1H1) is pleased to announce the results of the Diamond Drilling Program completed on the Kidd Township Property this winter. The Corporation’s Kidd Township Group of Properties are located to the North, South, West and East of the Kidd Creek Mine Site, located approximately 20 km north of Timmins, Ontario. Explor’s Kidd Township’s Group of Properties have a land position that cover an area of approximately 2,805.20 hectares as shown on the attached Property Map. The most obvious topographical feature in the area is the Open Pit located in the central portion of Explor’s Kidd Township group of Properties. Explor has completed a geophysical program consisting of mag and max/min to better define the targets in December 2016 and completed a 2,420 meter diamond drill program.
    As quoted in the press release:

    The property is located in a Greenstone Belt composed mainly of sequences of Meta-Volcanic rocks cut by faults and deformation zones that lie in a NW-SE direction. There are many suites of Mafic Volcanic rocks as well. Excellent access to the property is provided by Hwy 655.
    Between January and March, 2017, a three (3) Hole diamond drill program was initiated in the Timmins area on Explor’s “Kidd Township Group of Properties”. Holes KC-17-07, KC-17-08 & KC-17-09 totalling 2420 meters of NQ core were drilled in Carnegie Township. KC-17-07 was drilled on claim 4210980 and Holes KC-17-08 & KC-17-09 were drilled on Patent 4419. The winter 2017 diamond drill program was initiated as a follow-up to diamond drill program completed in 2016 by Explor and to continue to drill test an east-west trending magnetic and electromagnetic conductor in the claim block. Finally, the drill program was also initiated to try to duplicate with Hole KC-17-07 down-dip Zinc values as high as 1.50% (15,000 ppm Zn.) intersected in Hole KC-16-03 during the 2016 summer-fall drill program. The 2017 winter drill program completed on the Carnegie Township claim 4210980 and Patent 4419 with holes KC-1-07, Kc-17-08, & KC-17-09 intersected altered mafic volcanic flows, pillow flows, flow breccia, greywacke/argillite, ultramafic rocks, mafic and felsic ash to lapilli tuffs & fragmental rocks with moderate to strong sericite and silica alteration.
