[{"type":"text","content":"\n Asiamet Feasibility Drilling Confirms High Grade Copper Mineralization.Asiamet Resources Limited (\"ARS\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce that Resource infill and extension drilling being undertaken as part of the feasibility study on the Beruang Kanan Main (\"BKM\") copper deposit in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia continues to intersect high grade copper mineralization in the southern part of deposit and has confirmed good continuity of higher grades previously reported within the BK058 Zone.Four drill rigs are operational with 25 holes/2558 meters of diamond core drilling completed to date and four holes currently in progress. Five large diameter holes collecting bulk samples for copper leaching test work have also been completed with an additional 12 holes to follow.Assay results have been received for three infill holes drilled to increase Resource confidence and one hole drilled to extend the BKM Resource eastward. Shallow high grade covellite-chalcocite copper mineralization very similar in style to that reported previously in drill holes BKM31850-02 (11m at 2.96% Cu, including 2 meters at 9.26% Cu, from 6 meters. Refer ARS Press Release August 26, 2015) and BK058-01(64.9m at 1.24% Cu, including 9 meters at 7.35% Cu, from 11.7 meters. Refer ARS Press Release August 22, 2013) was intersected in all three holes drilled within the BK058 Zone. Better results include:BKM31700-0212.0 meters at 0.93% Cu (from 1 meter) BKM31700-035.0 meters at 1.80% Cu (from 10.5 meters) 22.0 meters at 1.07% Cu (from 21 meters) · Including 3 meters at 5.42% Cu (from 21 meters) 6.2 meters at 1.06% Cu (from 102 meters) and hole terminated in 1.2% Cu BKM31700-0443.0 meters at 1.16% Cu (from 15 meters) · Including 8 meters at 2.52% Cu (from 23 meters) · Including 13 meters at 1.60% Cu (from 38 meters)The first hole on section line BKM31700 (110m End of hole) was drilled outside the BKM Resource and intersected moderate grade mineralization from near surface, confirming copper mineralization continues eastward. Drilling continues to confirm continuity and extend copper mineralization in the BK058 Zone. Five additional holes have also been completed on this line and assays...
