"We are thrilled with the results from our 2012 drill program," says Francois Laurin, President and CEO of Cap-Ex. "Not only did we intersect continuous grade and thickness at Block 103, but we covered a significantly larger area than anticipated. We are excited for the release of our maiden resource estimate, which is expected to occur within the next few weeks."
True widths of the reported intercepts above vary depending on the angle of the individual drill holes and are estimated to be between 65% and 100% of the core interval as reported. All samples were prepared from split BTW-sized half-core sections on-site in Labrador. Split drill core samples have been sent to independent contractor Acme Analytical Laboratories in Vancouver, BC, for analyses. Total iron analysis is performed using X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and the magnetic component is determined by Satmagan magnetic analysis. FeO titration analysis permits an estimation of hematite. Standards, blanks, and duplicate assays are included at regular intervals in each sample batch submitted from the field as part of an ongoing Quality Assurance/Quality Control program.
