[{"type":"text","content":"Happy Creek Expands Tungsten Zones at Surface on the Fox Property, B.C.(via Thenewswire.ca)\n\n \nVancouver, British Columbia / TNW-ACCESSWIRE / September 17, 2014 / Happy Creek Minerals Ltd. (TSXV: HPY) (the \"Company\") announces that exploration work has expanded the known mineralized zones at surface on its 100% owned Fox tungsten property. \n\n \n \nThe Fox property is well situated approximately 25 km east of the past producing Boss Mountain molybdenum mine, and 75 km northeast of the town of 100 Mile House in the south-central Cariboo region of British Columbia, Canada. The property has good road access, hydropower within 17 km and other resource based infrastructure nearby.\n\n \n \nKey points:\n\n \n \n\n\n1)Located favorable tungsten host, calc silicate and skarn that expands the Nightcrawler zone an additional 400 metres to the east. Target area expanded to 2 km. \n\n\n\n2)Located thick marble, calc silicate and skarn layers in outcrop extending up to 600 metres along the west and northwest side of Deception Mountain. \n\n\n\n3)Target area on Deception Mountain increased to 3 km by 1.4 km in dimension. \n\n\n\n4)Ultra Violet lamping shows positive tungsten values in samples. More work is planned. \n\n\n\n \n \nDavid Blann, President and CEO of Happy Creek states: \"We have extended the Nightcrawler zone to 2 km, and further north on Deception Mountain, can now show the favorable geology occurs in a large portion of a three km by 1.4 km area. The detailed drilling we've done at the RC zone has given us confidence in the ability to outline a resource with top tier thickness and grades, yet it is a fraction of this large scale mineral system. The northern and western side of Deception Mountain show great promise and expands the resource potential of the property. The favorable geology here covers a large area at surface, and additional detailed geology, UV lamping and sampling is planned prior to drilling.\"\n\n \n \nDetails\n\n \n \nIn an area of recent logging activity, prospecting approximately 400 metres east of the Nightcrawler tungsten zone has located angular, subcrop rock samples showing positive tungsten under ultra violet light. No soil sampling or other exploration has been performed in this area. Previous drilling at Nightcrawler together with this new information suggests the favorable tungsten-bearing skarn...
