Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 9, 2018) - Constantine Metal Resources Ltd. (TSXV: CEM) ("Constantine" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has filed its National Instrument 43-101 report entitled "NI 43-101 Technical Report and Updated Resource Estimate for the Palmer Exploration Project, Porcupine Mining District, Southeast Alaska, USA" dated November 9th, 2018, on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. The updated Copper-Zinc-Silver-Gold (Barite) Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource estimate for the Palmer Joint Venture Project, Alaska ("Palmer" or the "Project") was originally announced in the Company's news release dated September 27th, 2018. The Company anticipates issuing a Preliminary Economic Assessment on the Palmer project in early 2019.
"Constantine continues to move forward in terms of determining the extent of mineralization at Palmer and taking the project through to the development stage," commented President and CEO Garfield MacVeigh. "We are confident that we have the momentum to achieve these goals, which will continue to add value for our stakeholders."
About the Palmer Project
Palmer is a high-grade volcanogenic massive sulphide-sulphate (VMS) project being advanced as a joint venture between Constantine (51%) and Dowa Metals & Mining Co Ltd. (49%), with Constantine as operator. The Project is located in a very accessible part of coastal Southeast Alaska, 60 kilometers by road to the year-round deep-sea port of Haines. In addition to the main Palmer deposit resource, the Project also includes the recently discovered AG Zone located three km to the southwest. A maiden resource estimate for the AG Zone has been initiated following receipt of 2018 drill results that is expected to contribute to the total resource base of the Project. A Preliminary Economic Assessment study has been initiated on the Project that is expected to also include potential AG Zone mineral resources, with completion expected early 2019. Palmer occurs within the same belt of rocks that is host to the Greens Creek mine, one of the world's richest VMS deposits. VMS deposits are known to occur in clusters, and with at least 25 separate base metal and/or barite occurrences and prospects on the Project, there is abundant potential for discovery of multiple deposits at Palmer.
