[{"type":"text","content":"Tower Intercepts 133 Meters of 0.41% Copper Equivalent in 1km Step-Out Drill Hole at Rabbit North(via TheNewswire)\n\n \nVancouver B.C. / TheNewswire / Tower Resources Ltd. (\"Tower\" or the \"Company\") reports further drill results from its flagship Rabbit North project, near Kamloops, British Columbia. Additional results from the 2017 diamond drill program returns long intervals of porphyry related copper and gold mineralization from the Chrysocolla Zone, a one kilometre (km) step-out from previously released results from the Western Magnetite Zone.\n\n \n \nHighlights from hole RN17-021, include:\n\n \n \n\n\n- 0.11% Cu and 0.24 g/t Au (0.20% copper equivalent) over 255.8m; including\n\n\n\n- 0.19% Cu and 0.31g/t Au (0.41% copper equivalent) over 133m; including\n\n\n\n- 0.37% Cu and 0.39g/t Au (0.64% copper equivalent) over 42m; including\n\n\n\n- 1.04% Cu and 1.83g/t Au (2.32% copper equivalent) over 4m\n\n\n\n \n \nThe road-accessible Rabbit North project comprises approximately 16,400 hectares in the infra-structure-rich, copper and gold porphyry belt of southern British Columbia. The producing New Afton copper and gold mine is approximately 14km east of the main Rabbit North targets and the Highland Valley Copper Mine operated by Teck Resources Ltd is located 28km to the west. \n\n \n \nPresident Mark Vanry states, \"We are very encouraged that we have now expanded the known copper and gold mineralization over 1km south of the Western Magnetite Zone towards the Chrysocolla Zone. This is by far the largest step-out the company has drilled to date. Based on historic drilling and geophysics we also believe the Western Magnetite Zone is open over 1km to the north and also to the west. Tower plans to aggressively test these areas during the next phase of drilling at Rabbit.\"\n\n \n \nTable 1: Length Weighted Drill Intercepts - this Press Release, 2017 Diamond Drill Program \n\n \n\nHoleId\n\n\n\n\nFrom (m)\n\n\n\n\nTo (m)\n\n\n\n\nInterval (m)\n\n\n\n\nCu (ppm)\n\n\n\n\nCu (%)\n\n\n\n\nAu (g/t) \n\n\n\n\nCuEq (ppm)\n\n\n\n\nCuEq (%)\n\n\n\n\nRN17-021\n\n\n\n\n42\n\n\n\n\n297.79\n\n\n\n\n255.79\n\n\n\n\n1151\n\n\n\n\n0.12\n\n\n\n\n0.24\n\n\n\n\n1976\n\n\n\n\n0.2\n\n\n\n\nincluding\n\n\n\n\n92\n\n\n\n\n225\n\n\n\n\n133\n\n\n\n\n1920\n\n\n\n\n0.19\n\n\n\n\n0.31\n\n\n\n\n4052\n\n\n\n\n0.41\n\n\n\n\nincluding\n\n\n\n\n111\n\n\n\...
