[{"type":"text","content":"Bitterroot Resources Intersects High Nickel Grades in Massive Sulphide MineralizationVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / October 13, 2021 / Bitterroot Resources Ltd. (TSXV:BTT) has received assays for holes LM 21-13 and LM 21-14 at its LM Project in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. The assays continue to confirm that the massive and semi-massive sulphides intersected are enriched in nickel and copper, with overlying disseminated mineralization occurring in hole LM 21-13, but absent in LM 21-14.Details of Mineralized Intervals*LM 21-13From(m)To(m)Interval(m)Rock TypeNi(%)Cu(%)Au + PGM (ppm)247.68250.362.68Upper Disseminated Mineralization0.330.380.10250.36250.750.39Semi-Massive Sulphide1.810.510.52 3.07TOTAL0.520.400.15LM 21-14From(m)To(m)Interval(m)Rock TypeNi(%)Cu(%)Au + PGM(ppm)235.79236.060.27Semi-Massive Sulphide1.960.010.01236.06236.860.80Massive Sulphide4.811.050.25 1.07TOTAL4.090.780.19* Intervals are drill intersections and not necessarily true widths. True widths cannot be calculated at this time due to insufficient information on the orientation of the mineralized zones.Holes LM 21-13 and LM 21-14 were the second and third holes completed in the summer 2021 drilling campaign, which commenced in early June. Four holes drilled this summer exited the intrusion above the elevation of the sulphide mineralization and three holes did not intersect the intrusion. The drilling completed to date has given our team a better understanding of the orientation of the LM intrusion and the position of the basal mineralized intervals within it. A map showing the location of drill holes completed to date is attached to this news release and posted on www.bitterrootresources.com.The tenth hole of the summer program is currently underway, targeting mineralization in the southeast quadrant, which appears to host the keel of the steeply plunging LM intrusion. An eleventh hole is planned prior to October 31, after which, drilling will pause for hunting season. Discussions with adjacent mineral tenure holders are continuing. Management plans to resume drilling in the winter of 2022.Exploration of the LM Project is being funded by Bitterroot Resources Ltd. (51%) and privately-owned joint venture partner Below Exploration Inc. (49%).Mr. Glenn W.
