[{"type":"text","content":" TORONTO, Nov. 20, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BWR Exploration Inc. (TSXV:BWR) (“BWR” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide an update on exploration and permitting activities for its Little Stull Lake Gold Project, located in Northeastern Manitoba. As reported on October 23, 2018, BWR mobilized an exploration crew to the project area in late September 2018, for the purpose of preparing the project for a winter 2018/19 diamond drilling program. Highlights of the program include the verification and validation of the historical result for hole LS-00-03 (drilled in 2000 by Wolfden Resources Inc.) where for the interval 170m to 174m had given 5.59 g/t Au over a 4 metre interval. The resampling/assaying of this same interval by BWR yielded 5.62 g/t over 4 metres representing an almost exact duplication, making the drill campaign “Wolfden 2000” results quite acceptable to incorporate into a maiden resource estimate on the West Zone of the Little Stull Lake deposit. Geological work during early October 2018 included preliminary structural mapping of outcrops in the vicinity of the West Zone, as well as accurately identifying the location of several historical (Westmin 1985-89, Wolfden 2000, and Puma 2007) drill collars within the West Zone, using a Trimble Geo-7 (with sub-1metre accuracy) so that the hole’s co-ordinates could be imported into a 3D model that BWR is currently preparing. A total of 67 collar UTM’s were recorded within the West Zone, focusing on the 3W and 11W areas. These holes included Westmin and Puma drill hole collars. It was understood that Wolfden pulled all casing during their short-lived exploration program in 2000, so no Wolfden holes could be surveyed, however a collar picket for hole LS-00-03 was found proximal to the LS-106 collar (of Westmin). This Wolfden hole was selected for re-logging and re-sampling (as mentioned in the October 23 press release). While there, a small number of intact old grid pickets were found and surveyed, that will assist in any future digital or physical reconstruction of the old grid for geophysical surveying and drill siting purposes. Resampling of LS-00-03 included the submission of 21 quarter sample splits of the Wolfden (2000) sampled intervals. The samples were manually quarter cut, leaving one quarter in the core box stored on site. These samples along with 30 others wer...
