Tower Resources Initiates Drill Program at Rabbit North Copper-Gold Project
Vancouver, B.C. – July 12, 2018 - Tower Resources Ltd. (“ Tower” or the “ Company”)
(TSX.V: TWR) is pleased to report that it has commenced its 2018 exploration program at
the Rabbit North copper-gold porphyry project near Kamloops, Br itish Colulmbia. A total
of 5,000 metres of diamond drilling is planned in the Western M agnetie and Chrysocolla
Main zones where the Company has previously intersected high gr ades of near surface,
gold and copper mineralization over large widths. Tower is also pleased to announce the
appointment of Cambria Geosciences as advisors to the Company.
The strategically located and road-accessible Rabbit North prop erty comprises
approximately 16,400 hectares. Rabbit North is centered 14.5 ki lometers east of New
Gold’s New Afton copper and gold mine and 28 kilometers east-no rtheast of Teck’s
producing Highland Valley copper mine. The 2018 drill program is planned to follow-up
and expand on results from the hi ghly successful drill programs from 2016 and 2017,
stepping out to the north and south of these areas that display favorable geology and
analogous geophysical signatures (IP chargeability/resistivity and ground magnetics).
Highlighted results from these programs are listed below;
Western Magnetite Zone
RN17-015: 247 metre interval grading 0.51% copper and 0.34 g/t gold (0.75%
CuEq), including 26.5m grading 0.97% copper and 0.62 g/t gold (see press release
dated July 11th, 2017)
