[{"type":"text","content":" ROUYN-NORANDA, Quebec, Aug. 14, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Radisson Mining Resources Inc. (TSX-V: RDS, OTC: RMRDF) (“Radisson” or the “Company\") is pleased to announce an update of the exploration program underway at the O’Brien gold project located along the Larder-Lake Cadillac Break, halfway between Rouyn-Noranda and Val-d’Or in Quebec, Canada. Following the resource estimate update published for the O’Brien gold project (See March 20, 2018 Press release), the company announced the expansion of the drilling program to 11,000 meters with a principal focus on the F Zone located a few meters west of current resources. Press release highlights: • Hole OB-18-77 completed on the F Zone intersected; 10 g/t Au over 1.2 meters at 300 m vertical depth 4.3 g/t Au over 0.7 meters at 336 m vertical depth • Hole OB-18-73 completed on the F Zone intersected; 5.6 g/t Au over 1.4 meters at 210 m vertical depth 3.5 g/t Au over 3.1 meters at 262 m vertical depth 3.4 g/t Au over 5.1 meters at 312 m vertical depth • 3 shallow drill holes completed in vertical extension of the enrichment vector defined on 36E area are currently being assayed. • (See figure 1, figure 2 and figure 3) Mario Bouchard, President and CEO comments: “Current results continues to highlight growth opportunities residing in the vicinity of current resources at the O’Brien gold project. The drilling program, 3D modelling of the F Zone and old O’Brien mine infrastructures will enable the company to increase gold resources significantly, at a very competitive cost and a few meters west of the bulk of current resources at O’Brien”. (See 3D longitudinal section) F Zone areaThe F Zone is contiguous and to the West of 36E area. Results obtained from the 2016-2017 drilling programs allowed to define the vertical and lateral extension of historical mined stopes on the F Zone (See 20.2 g/t Au over 2.5 m and 11.9 g/t Au over 3 m). Due to lack of 3D information from former mining infrastructures of the F Zone, this sector was not incorporated in the resource estimate update published on March 20, 2018.

The geological team also established a 6,000 meters drill program (close to 2,000 m completed up t...
