METANOR EXPANDS ITS B VEIN ABOVE LEVEL 10 BY INTERSECTING 22.75 G/T OVER 2.3 METERS AT BACHELOR
Metanor Resources Inc. is providing this update on the continuing underground drilling program at its Bachelor mine.
Four drills are currently active underground, which has resulted in over 5,500 metres of drilling per month in the last four months, of which an average of 1,600 metres per month was exploration drilling. Since the last drilling update released March 31, 2014, Metanor has drilled the A vein, Hewfran East and the B vein, and the results are summarized in the attached table. Results from the forth drill, on level 14, are now being compiled.
The drill results in the B vein on Level 10 confirm the expansion of the vein above Level 10 up to Level 8. The drilling in the A vein also confirmed the expansion of that vein between Level 6 and 10. The drilling in the Hewfran zone allowed the discovery of a parallel vein south of the Hewfran East vein on Level 8. Some results identified by a question mark cannot be linked to an existing vein and are being interpreted by the geologists. All these new zones are being added to the original resource published in 2011. Because of the proximity of the A vein to the current infrastructure, the mining of this vein will start in the coming months.
The attached table summarizes the significant intersections obtained for these sectors.

True core length
The true width is between 60 and 80 per cent of the core length obtained in diamond drill holes. The cap-off grade used in the analysis is 51.5 grams per tonne or 1.5 ounces gold. The samples were assayed by fire assay at the Metanor assay lab. The quality control program of the assay results adopted by Metanor includes a minimum of 10 per cent of controlled assays being conducted, as well as verification by an independent external assay lab.
