3/25/2015 - 10:58 AM EST - Foran Mining Corporation : announced the confirmation and expansion of massive sulphide mineralization at the Thunder Zone on its 100% owned Balsam property. The Thunder Zone is located seven kilometres southeast of Foran's McIlvenna Bay deposit in east-central Saskatchewan, where the Company announced the results of a positive preliminary economic assessment in late 2014. In 2013, a single hole drilled by Foran into a newly identified geophysical anomaly hit high-grade volcanogenic massive sulphide mineralization in the Thunder Zone, with 4.1% Cu and 0.43 g/t Au over 3.66m, including 10.6% Cu and 0.70 g/t Au over 1.1m in BA-13-77. Drilling in the current program stepped out from BA-13-77 and cut thick intercepts of copper- and zinc-rich VMS mineralization in four of the five holes drilled, confirming a significant new blind discovery close to McIlvenna Bay.
