First Drill Results on Lone Pine Molybdenum Property Intersects 0.081% MoS2 over 102.3 metres.
Bard Ventures Ltd. ("Bard" or the "Company") is very pleased to announce the results of the first vertical hole drilled on the Lone Pine Molybdenum Property (the "Property"). The Property is located approximately 15 kilometers north-northwest of Houston, BC, and is situated in the Omineca Mining Division. Assays have been received for hole # BD-07-01, the first drill hole of a seven-hole drill program.
The drill hole averaged 0.05% MoS2 over the entire length of 490.10 metres, which included two higher grade zones of 0.078% MoS2 over 42.9 metres from 17.0 m to 59.9 m and 0.081% MoS2 over 102.3 metres from 257.7 m to 360.0 m.
Of importance to note is the existing infrastructure on the Property, which includes Highway 16, natural gas pipeline, a major hydro power transmission line and transformer sub-station, and it is located only 15 kms from the CN rail line in Houston, BC.
The Property area extends over several molybdenum showings (Quartz Breccia, Alaskite Zone, Mineral Hill, and Granby, etc.), that have been previously documented in various assessment and government reports (Minfile Nos. 093L 027, and 093L 028). Hole BD-07-01 is a vertical NQ2 size (5 cm core) drill hole located in the Alaskite Zone and is the deepest drill hole completed on the Property to date.
Bard is earning a 100% interest in the Property under the terms of an option agreement (see News Release dated September 15, 2006). The Lone Pine exploration work is being conducted under the supervision of Qualified Person Jim Miller-Tait, P. Geo. a Director of Bard.
