New 1,236 hectare claim block with easy access on highway 106 Past work indicates anomalous Beryllium, Rubidium, Niobium, Gallium, Tantalum, Lithium, Cesium and Tin. VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / November 13, 2018 / Searchlight Resources Inc. (\"Searchlight\" or the \"Company\") (TSX-V: SRCH) is pleased to announce the staking of Hanson Lake Rare Element Pegmatites located approximately 65 kilometres west of Creighton, Saskatchewan, which is five kilometres southwest of the city of Flin Flon, Manitoba. Searchlight has staked a 1,236 hectare claim covering the Hanson Lake Rare Element Pegmatites also described as Hanson Lake Beryliferous Pegmatite Field. The claims are located approximately 65 kilometres west of Creighton, Saskatchewan and the Bootleg Lake claims. The claims are cut by Highway 106 and the pegmatite target is within a kilometre of the highway. The newly staked claims at the Hanson Lake Rare Element Pegmatites described below were also visited and sampled during field work announced October 18th, 2018 in the following press release (Click Here). The geological team located the pegmatites and traced the structure for over 300 metres. The historic data is selective, with assays available only for a limited suite of elements, and therefore Searchlight plans to expand the analytical package for the samples recently collected. Stephen Wallace, President and CEO of Searchlight stated, \"The Company continues to focus on Saskatchewan exploration, particularly in the Flin Flon Greenstone Belt and we continue to find interesting and important geological targets with limited past exploration work. The Hanson Lake target fits the Company's focus of low-cost acquisition close to infrastructure.\" There are two documented zones of Pegmatites within the claim block, the Jackpine Be showing and the Wyllie Lake Beryliferous Pegmatites. Below are descriptions from the Saskatchewan Mineral Deposit Index (\"SMDI\"). Jackpine Be Showing - SMDI file # 0181 \"The showing consists of several beryl-bearing dykes in the Jackpine Lake area. The dykes were traced for several thousand feet striking north and appear to pinch out. The beryliferous granite pegmatite is confined to the core of the Jackpine Lake Antiform. The...
