We have prioritised pozzolan testing on the Tuff Zone and I am pleased to report that the preliminary results show that, in all cases, the pozzolan strength requirements of ASTM C618 required after 28 days curing have been exceeded after only 7 days curing. We have recently held positive meetings with a number of raw perlite and pozzolan consumers and as a result we will now proceed to supply initial samples for their internal evaluation whilst continuing our own testwork programmes.\"\n \n \nFurther information\n \n\n\n\n\nSunrise Resources plc\nPatrick Cheetham, Executive Chairman \n\n\nTel:\n\n\n+44 (0)1625 838 884\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNorthland Capital Partners Limited\nNominated Adviser & Broker\nEdward Hutton/David Hignell\nJohn Howes...
