Wolfden Announces Positive Second Phase Drill Results at Orvan Brook, NB

Wolfden Resources Corporation (WLF.V) is pleased to report the remaining results from diamond drilling completed in late 2017, on its 100%-owned Orvan Brook property. The property is well-located proximal to infrastructure, 35 miles west of the City of Bathurst and 15 kilometres east-northeast of Trevali Mining Corporation’s Caribou mine and mill facility, in the Bathurst Mining Camp of northeastern New Brunswick.

As quoted in the press release:

A total of seven drill holes comprising 2,629 metres were completed during the second phase of drilling. Five of the holes were completed on the West Lens and 2 on the East Lens (holes 18 and 21A) (see Figure 1 Longitudinal Section). The results confirm the grade and width of nearby historical drill holes containing appreciable base-metal values over significant widths such as hole ORB95-3 with 8.2% Zn, 2.9% Pb, 0.3% Cu & 83 g/t Ag over 5.5 metres and hole ORB95-5 with 7.4% Zn, 2.3% Pb, 0.4% Cu & 89 g/t Ag over 5.6 metres). Collectively, the widths and grades of these holes are similar to those at the Caribou mine and are indicative of a massive sulphide lens. Both lenses remain open at depth and along strike and warrant further drilling for potential resource expansion.
