[{"type":"text","content":"\n\n\n\nABBOTSFORD, BC, April 17 /CNW/ - ICS Copper Systems Ltd. (ICX:TSX.V) is\npleased to announce that 70% of the confirmation drilling of the historical\nMokambo sulphide copper deposit has been completed towards its objective of\npreparing a NI 43-101 Resource Report.\n\n\nSulphide Confirmation Drill Program\n\n\n-----------------------------------\n\n\nThe Company is in the process of drilling five diamond drill holes that\ntwin historical diamond drill holes. Two of the five holes have been\ncompleted. Assay results from the initial hole M-08-S-01 have confirmed the\nmineralization assayed from Drill Hole 3 (DH3), which was completed in 1930.\nThe results are as follows:\n\n\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nHole No. From To True Width Total Copper\n (m) (m) Interval (m) (%)\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nM-08-S-01 69.10 84.43 11.74 0.822\n ---------------------------------------------------------------\n including 74.10 74.75 0.50 1.760\n ---------------------------------------------------------------\n including 75.75 76.95 0.92 1.220\n ---------------------------------------------------------------\n including 78.65 80.50 1.04 1.484\n ---------------------------------------------------------------\n including 81.99 82.91 0.70 1.300\n ---------------------------------------------------------------\n 85.65 92.90 5.55 0.353\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\nAlthough the assays are lower in the new hole than the historic hole, the\nmineralization is spread over a larger interval of the hole. The drill is\ncurrently on the third twinned hole which should be finished within a week,\nleaving 2 holes remaining to be drilled.\n\n\nRe-sampling and Re-assaying of Historic Sulphide Drill Holes Program\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\nFour of the historical sulphide diamond drill holes that are presently\nbeing drilled as twin holes, have been re-sampled at Kalulushi, using the same\nhistorical sampling intervals for comparison purposes. DH3 was not stored at\nthe Chamber of Mines facility.\n\n\nSamples were sent to Alfred Knight Laboratories in Kitwe for analysis of\ntotal copper and acid soluble copper for comparison with the original assay\nresults.
