03:48 PM EST - SLAM Exploration Ltd. : announced it has issued a tender request for a 2,000-metre diamond drilling program on its wholly owned Reserve Creek project in the Fort Hope area of Ontario. This program will comprise approximately 15 holes designed to test the extent of bonanza grade gold mineralization drilled in June. SLAM reported a 16.85-m core interval grading 16.45 g/t gold (55.3 feet grading 0.48 oz/ton) with individual samples up to 274 g/t gold over 0.5 metres (7.99 oz/ton over 1.6 feet) in hole RS10-16. The planned drilling program will be designed to expand the bonanza gold zone laterally by a series of stepouts. SLAM expects to trace the bonanza zone along the 350 metre strike length of mineralized, gold-bearing iron formation indicated by previous drilling. SLAM Exploration Ltd.
