Prospective Drill Target Area Identified Northwest Of Lorraine Deposit

VANCOUVER - NorthWest Copper has identified a prospective drill target area approximately 6.5 kilometres northwest of the Lorraine deposit. The Boundary Target was identified by the NorthWest exploration team after a detailed review of newly compiled historical data.

“The Boundary Target is another example of a high-priority exploration target in NorthWest's portfolio that we would plan to test in the next drill program at Lorraine,” said Interim President and CEO David Moore. “Boundary has the potential to add near-surface mineralization only 6.5 km from the current Lorraine resource. The target has only been tested in a restricted area by a small number of relatively shallow historical drill holes. Our new interpretations of geology and structure in combination with historical geochemical and drilling results will be of great help in locating and orienting new drill holes in this exciting target. The Lorraine project offers many excellent target opportunities with potential to add to the project’s resource base.”
