(\"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 continue to return long intervals of porphyry related copper and gold mineralization from drill holes at the Western Magnetite Zone (WM Zone). \n\n \n \nHighlights from hole RN17-018, include:\n\n \n \n\n\n- 0.19% Cu and 0.16g/t Au (0.29% copper equivalent) over 280.2m; including\n\n\n\n- 0.35% Cu and 0.27g/t Au (0.54% copper equivalent) over 88.3m; including\n\n\n\n- 0.54% Cu and 0.28g/t Au (0.73% copper equivalent) over 27.6m; including\n\n\n\n- 1.71% Cu and 0.97g/t Au (2.38% copper equivalent) over 3.9m\n\n\n\n \n \nThe road-accessible Rabbit North project comprises approximately 16,400 hectares in the infrastructure-rich copper and gold porphyry belt of southern British Columbia. The producing New Afton copper and gold mine is approximately 14 kilometres east of the main Rabbit North targets; Highland Valley Copper Mine operated by Teck Resources Ltd is located 28 kilometres to the west. \n\n \n \nPresident Mark Vanry states, \"we continue to be very encouraged by results of step-out drilling in the WM Zone, which has again intercepted strong Cu-Au mineralization over material widths. Hole RN-018 is one of the best holes drilled to date on the project. The company has now defined an area of approximately 200 meters x 200 meters of copper and gold mineralization which is open in all directions. We are looking forward to the commencement of our Phase II 2017 program at Rabbit North, scheduled to commence in mid-October.\"\n\n \n \nTable 1: Length Weighted Drill Intercepts - this Press Release, 2017 Diamond Drill Program \n\n \n\nHOLE ID\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\nRN17-016\n\n\n\n\n186\n\n\n\n\n239\n\n\n\n\n53\n\n\n\n\n1518\n\n\n\n\n0.15\n\n\n\n\n0.12\n\n\n\n\n2315\n\n\n\n\n0.23\n\n\n\n\nincluding\n\n\n\n\n186\n\n\n\n\n206.5\n\n\n\n\n20.5\n\n\n\n\n2734\n\n\n...
