CALGARY, Feb. 22, 2019 - Canadian Premium Sand Inc. (TSXV:CPS) (“CPS” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide an update on the development of its Wanipigow Sand Project.
TECHNICAL DISCLOSURE
The Company advises investors that it does not have a current technical report supporting the development of the Wanipigow Sand Project. Accordingly, the internal economic assessment and estimates of mineral resources previously disclosed by the Company on the Company's website in investor materials such as corporate presentations are not supported by a NI 43-101 technical report and therefore should not be relied upon until such information has been verified and supported by a technical report in compliance with NI 43-101.
Following the consolidation of leases and an extensive additional drilling and assaying program, a new NI 43-101 technical report (the “New Technical Report”) is in the process of being completed with respect to the Wanipigow Sand Project. This New Report Technical Report is expected to be made public and filed early in the second quarter of 2019.
