(TSXV: TR) (the \"Company\") is pleased to announce that it has completed Phase 1 of its 2018 exploration program on its 100% owned Amarillo Project located in southwestern British Columbia, Canada.Key HighlightsExtended Tungsten soil anomaly 2 kms to the north;Increased land holding size by 27% by staking two new claims to ensure coverage of broader Tungsten anomaly;Completed 38.9 km of 3D Induced polarization (\"IP\") geophysical survey;Minimum 2,000 meter drill program planned for Phase 2 exploration program anticipated for early fall 2018; andImplemented a base line water sampling program.The soil geochemical survey performed in 2016 delineated discrete multi-element anomalies extending NE-SW over 4 kilometres in length (refer to Company website and news release dated June 8, 2018 for details) with the Tungsten geochemical anomaly remaining open to the north. The 2018 Phase 1 geochemical sampling program was designed to extend the sampling coverage to the north to determine the extent of the Tungsten anomaly.The resultant geochemical survey data extends the Tungsten anomaly to a further 2kms north and increased the Tungsten anomaly to 3 kms x 4 kms in size, prompting the Company to increase its land holdings to cover any potential further extensions. A total of two claims totalling 897 hectares were acquired by staking, thereby bringing the Amarillo Project to a total of 4,178 hectares and consisting of seven (7) mineral tenures.The IP survey, conducted by SJ Geophysics of Delta, British Columbia, was undertaken to better define targets for a planned fall drill program comprising of a minimum of 2,000 metres. The Company is currently awaiting final compilation of the IP data, which is expected to be received within two weeks. Based on the geophysical data collected to date the Company has decided to replace the trenching program as initially contemplated with the proposed drill program. \"The results continue to impress and reaffirms our conviction in the potential at Amarillo. We are eagerly awaiting the compiled geophysical data, which will allow us to fine-tune the targets for our inaugural drill campaign planned for early fall\" states ...
