Glacier Lake contracts Mammoth for Silver Vista work

GLACIER LAKE PROVIDES UPDATE ON RECENTLY COMPLETED SILVER VISTA TRANSACTION

Glacier Lake Resources Inc. has contracted Mammoth Geological Ltd. to undertake the 2017 exploration program on its Silver Vista property near Smithers, B.C. An initial first-pass program, consisting of property reconnaissance, prospecting and sampling, is planned for late June. The objective of the first-pass program is to verify access into the various parts of the property, locate the main showings and prospect favourable areas, following up on the anomalies generated by Amarc Resources Ltd. during its 2011 through 2014 exploration programs as well as the VTEM survey flown earlier this year.

Glacier Lake plans to follow up on this first-pass program with a diamond drilling program later in the field season. The permitting process is under way. The project was previously permitted for drilling by Amarc, and, since these permits just expired recently, the company anticipates the approval process should be routine.

The drilling will target the MR zone, a clastic sediment-hosted, fine-grained, disseminated copper-silver zone. Historical exploration includes soil geochemistry, trenching and diamond drilling in an area of limited outcrop exposure:

  • Soil geochemistry outlined an area approximately 1.5 kilometres by 2.0 kilometres around the MR prospect area.
  • Six excavator trenches highlighted an area 100 metres long by 17 metres wide with three of the trenches intersecting mineralized bedrock: trench 2 -- 10.5 metres at 0.22 per cent copper and 38 grams per tonne silver; trench 3 -- 16.5 metres at 0.53 per cent copper and 74 grams per tonne silver; and trench 4 -- 15 metres at 0.53 per cent copper and 28 grams per tonne silver.
  • Fourteen drill holes totalling 1,252.5 metres identified a semi-continuous zone 300 metres long by 50 metres wide by three metres to 150 metres deep, with two of the holes ending in mineralization. Key intercepts include: MR91-01 -- 32.87 metres at 0.19 per cent copper and 34.8 grams per tonne silver; MR91-03 -- 61.91 metres at 0.11 per cent copper and 40.5 grams per tonne silver; MR91-04 -- 25.9 metres at 0.08 per cent copper and 62.6 grams per tonne silver; and MR92-02 -- 36.58 metres at 0.49 per cent copper and 26.8 grams per tonne silver.

Three other anomalous zones were identified by Amarc during its exploration programs. Further details can be found in the recently completed National Instrument 43-101 report on the property located under the company's SEDAR profile.

Glacier Lake has not yet verified the historical soil, trenching and drilling data. Data verification is one of the objectives of the first-pass and subsequent diamond drilling program.

The company is also pleased to announce the addition of R. Tim Henneberry, PGeo, to the company's advisory board.

Mr. Henneberry, a graduate of Dalhousie University, is a professional geoscientist registered in British Columbia.
