[{"type":"text","content":"Happy Creek Completes Drill Program at Fox Tungsten Project, British Columbia\n \n \n (TheNewswire)\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n November 8, 2021 –\n \n \n TheNewswire\n-\n \n \n Vancouver, British Columbia – Happy Creek\nMinerals Ltd. (TSXV:HPY)\n \n \n (OTC:HPYCF)\n \n \n (“Happy Creek” or the “Company”) is pleased to\nreport that twelve diamond drill holes totaling 2052.7 metres have\nbeen completed at the\n \n \n Fox\nTungsten Project\n \n \n near the community of 100 Mile\nHouse in southern British Columbia.\n \n \n \n \n Eleven of the twelve holes successfully intersected\ntungsten-bearing skarn (calc-silicate rock) in the\n \n \n Nightcrawler\n \n \n -\n \n \n Creek\n \n \n area, which is located at low elevation and accessible by\nlogging roads and short drill trails. The holes range from 107.80 to\n260.91 m in depth. Drill hole survey details are included in Table 1\nbelow.\n \n \n \n \n Drilling between 2007 and 2020 in the Nightcrawler -\nCreek area has returned promising results over a 3 kilometre-wide\narea. For example, hole F20-06 cut 3.38 m grading 1.08% WO\n \n \n 3\n \n \n , and hole F19-02 cut 6.3 m grading\n0.43% WO\n \n \n 3\n \n \n .\n \n \n \n \n The goal of the 2021 drilling was to step out from the\nprevious wide-spaced drill intersections to build towards a maiden\nresource estimate at Nightcrawler – Creek, which can add to current\nresources at the RC, BN and BK Zones, located five to seven kilometres\nto the north.\n \n \n \n \n Scheelite, an important tungsten-bearing mineral, was\nidentified by ultraviolet (UV) lamping in as many as five skarn layers\nin eleven of twelve holes drilled in 2021, with individual mineralized\nintersections ranging in thickness from 0.15 to 5 m. Down-hole\nintervals are interpreted to be 70 to 90% of true thickness. A total\nof 389 samples have been delivered to the laboratory and assay results\nare expected within six to eight weeks.\n \n \n \n \n Table 1. 2021 Fox Diamond Drill Holes Survey\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Hole\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Dip\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Azimuth\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Easting\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Northing\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Collar Elevation (m)\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Depth (m)\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n F21-01\n \n \n \n \n \n \n -45\n \n \n \n \n 0\n \n \n \n \n 671976\n \n \n \n \n \n \n 5769465\n \n \n \...
