About this update from Asiamet Resources Limited
[{"type":"text","content":"\n Asiamet Reports Final Assays for BKM Feasibility DrillingAsiamet Resources Limited (\"ARS\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to advise that it has now received the final batch of assays for Resource infill and expansion drilling completed as part of Feasibility Studies on the Beruang Kanan Main (\"BKM\") copper deposit in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. Results continue to impress, with the latest near surface high grade copper assays returned from holes drilled at the BK058 Zone. In particular:Infill drilling at the BKM deposit confirms excellent internal continuity of near surface high grade copper mineralisation at the BK058 ZoneTwin drill holes confirm previously reported high grade and near surface mineralisation at BKM058 ZoneResults have been incorporated into the ongoing Feasibility study to refine and potentially improve the project's already favourable economicsHackman & Associates are incorporating all 2016/17 drill results into an updated Resource estimate.The Resource infill and expansion drilling program at BKM comprised a total of 122 holes for 12480.9 metres of diamond core drilling. The results from the final five drill holes of this drilling campaign are reported below. All were drilled in the southern part of the BKM deposit, with better results from the most recent drilling including: BKM31800-07 58.0 metres at 1.45% Cu (from 6.5 metres) Including 20.5 metres at 2.24% Cu (from 7.5 metres)Including 18.5 metres at 1.71% Cu (from 36.0 metres)BKM31835-01 17.5 metres at 1.57% Cu (from 25.5 metres) Including 9.5 metres at 2.37% Cu (from 27.5 metres)Includes 4.5 metres at 4.15% Cu (from 31.5 metres)BKM31600-06 4.0 metres at 3.15% Cu (from 46.5 metres) Expansion drill hole BKM31600-06 (100.0m End of Hole 'EOH') intersected a narrow zone of strong quartz - chalcocite - covellite veining, with individual veins up to 0.5 metres in width. This hole was drilled 50 metres west of BKM31600-05, which intersected 26.5 metres at 1.18% Cu from 48.0 metres, including 15.5 metres at 1.79% Cu from 50.0 metres (refer ARS Press Release May 24, 2017).Quality control drill hole BKM31650-09 (120.0m EOH) is a sciss...
