Latest Information September 30, 2002 Exploration completed. Approximately 2,438 metres of drilling was completed in seven vertical holes and a total of 259 samples were split for analysis. The holes were collared over an area of about five square kilometres with distance between holes ranging from 225 metres to more than 2,000 m. Each hole encountered anomalous tantalum values at the hangingwall contact (that is, upper surface) of the targeted zinnwaldite granite. Only hole 2002-04, located on the previously untested eastern margin of the main plug, returned potentially economic values of tantalum. September 30, 2002 Exploration completed.

September 20, 2002 Navigator Exploration and Chapleau Resources have completed their recent tantalum exploration program on the Kougarok tantalum-tin prospect, located in the north-central Seward Peninsula, approximately 112 km north of Nome, Alaska. Approximately 2,438 m of drilling was completed in seven vertical holes and a total of 259 samples were split for analysis. Although each hole encountered anomalous tantalum values at the hangingwall contact of the targeted zinnwaldite granite, only hole 2002-04, located on the previously untested eastern margin of the main plug, returned potentially economic values of tantalum. |
