CCW Intersects Cobalt-Enriched Vein Structures, Second Drill Program Starts at Castle

Canada Cobalt Works Inc. (TSXV:CCW) (OTC pink: CCWOF) (Frankfurt: 4T9B) (the “Company” or “Canada Cobalt”) is pleased to announce that ongoing underground drilling has intersected visual cobalt mineralization in most of the 40 drill holes completed to date, covering a distance of 200 meters, while surface drilling of high value targets has commenced approximately 1.5 km east of the Castle mine near Gowganda in the Northern Ontario Cobalt Camp.

Highlights:

  • Underground drilling supports Canada Cobalt’s geological model that vein structures untouched by first level mining in the 1980’s are enriched with cobalt-nickel arsenides and cobalt arsenides, two favoured assemblages for the targeted cobalt mineralized system (assay results will be reported as they become available);
  • Surface drilling will test multiple targets in a broad potential new discovery area east of the Castle mine and two other significant past producers – Phase 1 drilling will consist of a minimum of 2,000 meters;
  • Results from stripping of outcrop, trenching and MMI soil sampling within a large circular Nipissing diabase basin east and east-southeast of the mine are supported by strong induced polarization (IP) conductivity and chargeability anomalies including a 725-meter-long IP anomaly with an associated chargeability halo;
  • High-grade cobalt and silver are primary targets of surface drill program, but potential nickel/PGE’s in ultramafic gabbro and high-grade gold potential in Archean volcanics underscore the robust and diverse nature of the Gowganda system.

Jacques Monette, mine supervisor and Canada Cobalt director, commented: “Activity remains intense. In addition to continuing to intersect promising vein structures underground, with the latest drilling occurring near the #3 Shaft where there is an impressive network of veins, the pilot plant is operating smoothly while we’ve also launched a cost-effective program to dewater the second level of the mine.   Surface drilling more than a kilometer east of the mine has crews excited about the prospect of a potential new discovery.

“Canada Cobalt has also been approached by various stakeholders in the district and elsewhere with respect to our Re-2OX process that has produced a premium grade cobalt sulphate product sourced from mineralized material from the Castle mine.  Our plan, as the battery sector continues to grow, is to leverage Re-2OX to capture the greatest value possible for shareholders,” Monette concluded.

About Canada Cobalt Works Inc.

Canada Cobalt is a pure play cobalt company focused on its past producing Castle mine in the Northern Ontario Cobalt Camp, Canada’s most prolific cobalt district.  With underground access at Castle, a recently installed pilot plant to produce cobalt-rich gravity concentrates on site, and a proprietary hydrometallurgical process known as Re-2OX for the creation of technical grade cobalt sulphate as well as nickel-manganese-cobalt (NMC) formulations, Canada Cobalt is strategically positioned to become a vertically integrated North American leader in cobalt extraction and recovery.
