[{"type":"text","content":"VANCOUVER, Nov. 28, 2017 /CNW/ - Quantum Cobalt Corp. (CSE: QBOT; OTC: BRVVF; FRA: 23B) (\"Quantum\" or the \"Company\") wishes to announce it has completed a first pass exploration program on the Kahuna Cobalt Property (the \"Kahuna Property\" or the \"Property\"), located 14km North East of Temagami, Ontario. The property lies in the famous 'Cobalt' province and is approximately 37km south of the town of Cobalt, Ontario. In the 1920's Friday Mines worked the property, with 5 tonnes of ore mined at a grade of 22% Co. The field crew visiting the property completed a first pass exploration program consisting of prospecting, mapping and sampling with results reported below; Within the Friday shaft dump, quartz and carbonate veins were observed in a Nipissing diabase host rock. Mineralisation was observed to be closely associated with carbonate veining. Mineralisation included massive sulphides, pyrite, chalcopyrite, arsenides and cobalt bloom. Mineralisation occurred in patchy blebs, veins, massive sulphides and is disseminated. Prior sampling recorded values of up to 22% cobalt from the waste rock on the property. In total, 28 In total, 28 rock samples and 166 soil samples were collected on the project with pending results. Historic Exploration In 1998, a soils program was conducted around Friday's shaft showing several strong anomalies. A further 10m x 10m soil sample program was completed to compliment the historic program and validate anomalous results. A total of 55 samples were collected. Additionally, 91 soil samples were collected between the Friday Mines' shaft and the shoreline 800m to the north. Samples were collected at 10 meter intervals across the diabase with 100m spacings for a total of 91 samples. A further outcropping diabase on the western shore was also investigated. Evidence of faulting with slickensides, structures, iron staining and veining were observed. A 20cm wide quartz vein with traces of pyrite and chalcopyrite was sampled and stringer carbonate veining and disseminated sulphides were observed within the vicinity. A total of 20 soil samples were collected across the fault.
