Elissa Announces Results from Phase I Drilling at Thor REE Project

Elissa Resources Ltd. (TSXV:ELI,OTCQX:ELSRF) announced results from the Nevada-based Thor REE project.

As quoted in the press release:

Highlights of the drilling program include:

• Discovery of a possibly extensive REE-bearing alkali granite/syenite unit in the northern part of the Lopez Trend
• Intersected lengthy intervals of REE mineralization, including 32 feet (9.8 m, not true width) of 1.05% total REO (rare earth oxides) with a 6 foot (1.8 m, not true width) zone containing 3.28% total REO

Elissa’s President and CEO, Paul McKenzie said:

At least 90 percent of the Lopez Trend and a large number of outlying REE targets remain untested by drilling. We believe we are at the early stage of defining what could be a very large REE-bearing system.
