Far Resources Samples up to 627 g/t Silver and 4.39% Copper at Silver Switchback Property
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Feb. 4, 2013) -
Far Resources Ltd. (CNSX:FAT) ("Far" or "the Company"), has received results from 55 rock samples collected during the fall exploration program on the Silver Switchback Property located south of Terrace, British Columbia. These results augment the soil geochemical results reported in the news release of December 11, 2012.
The sampling, while not systematic due to lack of outcrop, covers most of the exposed outcrops of altered and/or mineralized bedrock and talus on the grid area and to the southeast along access trails. Results for silver range from less than 0.1 g/t to 627 g/t, and for copper from 4 ppm to 4.39%. The peak values and range of anomalous results are comparable to the Silver Quest sampling results from 2006 (refer news release dated August 20, 2012). The peak values are associated with massive or semi-massive sulphide veinlets which cut volcanic rocks of the Hazelton Group, which hosts many of the known ore deposits in northwestern British Columbia.
When combined together, the soil geochemistry and rock sampling define a NNW-trending target zone measuring approximately 1 kilometre long by 400 metres wide. The Company is currently evaluating geophysical techniques that may be most applicable to further exploration on the property, which is largely covered by talus and overburden.
