Numerous wide intercepts of PGM and Au and copper mineralization were discovered. The results are very positive, as the limits of the Main Zone mineralization have been expanded with this initial phase of drilling. \n\nHighlights:\n* drillhole MB-08-06 intersected 3.16 g/t PGM and Au and 0.40% Cu over 14 m (from 44-58 m)\n* drillhole MB-08-06 intersected 2.02 g/t PGM and Au and 0.32% Cu over 18 m (from 7-25m)\n* Main Zone extension on BCF Property to be included in Marathon feasibility study \n\nPhillip Walford, President and CEO noted, \"Drilling the north end of the Main Zone extension will bring this area up to the measured and indicated category.
