[{"type":"text","content":" VANCOUVER, Oct. 22, 2018 /CNW/ - First Energy Metals Ltd. (TSX-V: FE) (the \"Company) is pleased to announce that it has received assay results of Phase 2 exploration work at its Phyllis Cobalt Property (the \"Phyllis Property\") in Ontario. The highlights of sampling include a 4m intersection with 0.08% Cobalt (Co), 0.39% Copper (Cu), and 0.11% Nickel (Ni), including 1m @ 0.24% Co, 0.39% Cu, and 0.19% Nickel (Ni) (See attached Map for Sampling Location). The mineralization is hosted within a highly altered and fractured gabbro. The work accomplished during Phase II exploration expanded the original Phyllis Central trench to a 32m x 38m wide zone to increase the company's geological understanding of the intrusion and delineate the cobalt-copper-nickel mineralization. During this phase, 22 channel samples were taken testing various styles of disseminated, semi-massive, and massive sulphide mineralization. The company was successful to determine constraints on cobalt and other base metal mineralization. The size of the mineralization halo is unknown as it is largely covered by overburden on the northeast end of the trench created during Phase II. The company will continue to delineate this mineralization zone with continued exploration. All samples from this work were analyzed at Agat Laboratories, Mississauga, Ontario. Agat is a Canadian accredited laboratory which is also accredited / certified for ISO/IEC 17025:2005 and ISO 9001:2015 standards for specific tests. The samples were tested using method: Sodium Peroxide Fusion - ICP-OES/ICP-MS Finish. The laboratories have its own quality control and quality assurance (QA/QC) program for sample handling, preparation, analysis and data reporting. Mr. Gurminder Sangha, CEO of First Energy Metals stated that, \"We are very pleased with the success of exploration program at Phyllis Cobalt Property. The mineralization identified in Phase 1 work has shown further extension and is still open to the east and northeastern side. Anomalous values of nickel is another interesting target for future work. The Company is planning to drill the main mineralization area and carry out ground geophysical survey to see extension of the mineralized zone.\" The technical information contained in this news release has been reviewed and approved by Alexander Pleson, P.Geo., a qualified person, as def...
