Start Of Phase 3 Drilling At TK Greenfield Cu-Au Porphyry Project


VANCOUVER - BCM Resources Corp (B) reported that exploration drilling program at its Thompson Knolls (TK) greenfield Cu-Au-Ag-Mo porphyry system in southwestern Utah has resumed. The Company has received permits from the BLM to drill an additional 7 diamond drill holes for 24,200 feet (~7,400 meters). Drilling in hole TK7, that is designed to test the center of the highest magnetic anomaly.

Sergei Diakov, President, said, "In Phase 3 drilling we will be testing the extension of porphyry mineralization within the intrusion in both directions to the west and to the east as well as tracking the extension of peripheral mineralization in skarns along the northern edge of the intrusion. This is a critical phase of drill testing of the TK Cu-Au-Ag-Mo porphyry system, and we are looking forward to potentially exciting results from this drilling."

We are also planning to test the extension of the mineralization in the western flank previously intercepted in drill holes TK3a and TK5, however, drilling at the latter failed to reach the mineralized intrusion due to drilling complications. We anticipate that drill hole TK8 would confirm the extension of the mineralization in the intrusion in the western direction. Drill holes TK9, TK10, and TK11 are designed to test the potential for mineralized skarns along the northern edge of the TK intrusion. Drill holes TK12 and TK13 will test the eastern flank of the mineralized intrusion.
