Tasman Metals Ltd. Announces Approval for Bulk Surface Sample Permit for the Norra Karr Project

Tasman Metals Ltd. (TSXV:TSM,NYSE:TAS) announced that they have received a permit to extract a large surface sample for expanded metallurgical testing from their Norra Karr project in Sweden.

As quoted in the press release:

he permit allows for the extraction of 200 cubic metres of rock (approximately 500 tonnes) from selected locations that represent the Norra Karr deposit. The permit was granted by Länsstyrelsen Östergötland (County Administration Board of Östergötland), the Swedish government agency that manages land use in the region of Norra Karr.

Tasman’s President and CEO, Mark Saxon, said:

Until now, all samples used in processing have been extracted from drill core, and this bulk sample is a much lower cost option for our expanded metallurgical testing. As Norra Karr mineralization is very homogeneous and the rock is unweathered at surface, we are able to represent the deposit well with this large surface sample.
