[{"type":"text","content":"Jiulian Resources Expands Phase I Drill Program at the Big Kidd(via TheNewswire)\n \n \nMarch 21, 2019 / TheNewswire / JIULIAN RESOURCES INC. (TSX-V: JLR) (\"Jiulian\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce that it is expanding its phase I maiden drill program at its wholly-owned Big Kidd Project (\"Big Kidd\" or the \"Property\"), located nine kilometres northeast of Westhaven Venture's Shovelnose gold Property1.\n\n\n \nSix holes have been completed on the BK Breccia target, to a maximum depth of 660 meters (BK-19-004). The copper-gold mineralized hydrothermal breccia intersected by shallow historic drilling appears to increase in intensity at depth. Increasing potassic alteration with up to 10% total sulphides (pyrite+chalcopyrite) has been intersected at depth below the historic drilling. \n\n\n \nScott Dorion, Q.P. and director for Jiulian, commented: \"Given what we have observed in these initial drill holes, we are expanding our maiden drill program to better define the extents of what appears to potentially be a widespread alkalic Au-Cu porphyry system.\" \n\n\n \nTo view core photos from the Phase I drill program please visit the Company's website.\n\n\n \nHighlights:\n\n\n \n\n\n- Drill program immediately expanded to 5,000 meters.\n\n\n\n- Mineralization and alteration appear to increase with depth.\n\n\n\n- Hole BK-19-004, which tested the BK Breccia and Big Brother transition zone, intersected potassic alteration with chalcopyrite stringers near the margins of the Big Brother chargeability anomaly.\n\n\n\n- Hole BK-19-002 was successful in increasing the mineralized zone significantly to the south and at depth. BK-19-005 was successful in increasing the BK Breccia further to the west and to the east at depth, and BK-19-006 is currently underway and to date has increased the size of the mineralized zone to the south and at depth.\n\n\n\n- Drill pad construction is currently underway for hole BK-19-007, which has a designed depth of 700m and will test the Big Brother Zone for the first time ever.\n\n\n\n\n \nQualified Person\n\n \n \nIndependent Director of Jiulian, Scott Dorion, P.Geo., is the designated Qualified Person of the Company as defined by National Instrument 43-101 and has reviewed and approved the technical information contained in this release.\n\n \n \nAbout Jiulian\n\n \n \nJiulian is an exploratio...
