TSX.V: CPO, Pink Sheets: CBBWF
TORONTO, Aug. 15, 2018 /CNW/ - Cobalt Power Group Inc. ("Cobalt Power" or the "Company") (TSX.V: CPO, OTC Pink: CBBWF) is pleased to announce recent results from recently completed late winter lake bottom sediment sampling programs completed on Blueberry and Little Trout Lake Properties (the "Properties") by the vendors of the Properties.
Highlights
- Two samples from Little Trout Lake returned highly anomalous values of Co, Cu and Zn (177 ppm Co, 327 ppm Cu and 161 ppm Zn, and 111 ppm Co, 262 ppm Cu and 151 ppm Zn).
- One sample from Blueberry Lake returned highly anomalous values of Co (159 ppm Co).
The Blueberry Lake Property was staked to cover the possible source rocks of two geochemically anomalous Co (+/-Pb and Zn) lake bottom sediments, and the Little Trout Lake Property was staked to cover two strongly anomalous Cu and Co lake bottom sediment anomalies as reported by the OGS (Open File Report 6144).
Chris M. Healey, P. Geo, VP Exploration and a Director of Cobalt Power commented, "These results are highly encouraging as we have not previously seen such significant cobalt values in areas underlain by the Huronian Lorrain Formation."
A total of 18 lake bottom sediment samples were collected through the ice on the Properties using a Hornbrook lake sediment sampler. The lake sediment sampling program was completed under the supervision of Joerg Kleinboeck, P.Geo. Results from the programs are provided in the table below.
Chris M. Healey, P. Geo, Vice President Exploration and Director of Cobalt Power Group is the qualified person responsible for the technical content of this release, and consents to its dissemination.
