[{"type":"text","content":"\n\nTHUNDER BAY, ON, June 23, 2015 /CNW/ - Wolfden Resources Corporation (WLF:TSX-V) (\"Wolfden\" or the \"Company\") today announces the commencement of diamond drilling on the Company's Brunswick No. 6 West property (the 'Property'). The Property comprises greater than 3,600 hectares and is located in the Bathurst Mining Camp (\"BMC\"), 25 kilometres west of the City of Bathurst, in north-eastern New Brunswick. \n\nThe Brunswick No. 6 West Property:\n\nThe Brunswick No. 6 West property is underlain by several kilometres of the favorable 'Brunswick Horizon' that is host to both the Brunswick No. 12 mine (past production of 137 million tonnes at 8.47% Zn, 3.44% Pb, 0.37% Cu & 102.2 g/t Ag1) and the immediately adjacent Brunswick No. 6 mine (past production of 12.1 million tonnes at 5.43% Zn, 2.16% Pb, 0.39% Cu & 67 g/t Ag1). In addition to Brunswick No. 6 and Brunswick No. 12, the neighboring Flat Landing Brook deposit is hosted within the Brunswick Horizon (historical resource of 1.27 million tonnes at 5.62% Zn, 1.29% Pb and 23 g/t Ag2). The largest and most economically important massive sulphide deposits in the BMC occur at or near the Brunswick Horizon, commonly comprising volcaniclastic rocks of the Nepisiguit Falls formation overlain by an oxide iron formation.\n\nIn 2012, a lone drill hole was completed to test a prospective geophysical anomaly on the Property (AB-12-12).  This hole intersected over 140 metres of highly altered and mineralized Brunswick Horizon rock types.  Specifically, the drill hole encountered a thick magnetite-chlorite iron formation underlain by a thick zone of stringer sulphide mineralization within strongly altered felsic volcanic rocks. Sampling returned broad intervals of anomalous base-metal mineralization.  A follow-up bore-hole electromagnetic survey (BHEM) defined a strong off-hole conductor interpreted to lie within 30 metres of the drill-hole intersections.  This strong BHEM off-hole anomaly was not tested by diamond drilling and will be drilled by Wolfden in the coming days.\n\nDrill results will be released as they become available.\n\nAbout Wolfden Resources:\n\nWolfden is a mineral exploration company with a dominant, 24,000 hectare, land position in the heart of the Bathurst Mining Camp in New Brunswick. New Brunswick was ranked #4 in Canada and #21 in...
