The 2007 Wernecke Breccias exploration program was operated by Fronteer, and funded pro-rata by Fronteer (80%) and Rimfire (20%). Remaining results from the 2007 program will be released once the data is compiled.
Assay results have been prepared under the guidance of David Kuran, P. Geo, who is designated as a Qualified Person with the ability and authority to verify the authenticity of and validity of this data. All samples were analyzed by ALS Chemex, North Vancouver, BC, using ICP-AES and fire assay. Assays were completed with uranium determinations by ME-MS-61 ICP geochemical analysis with samples returning over 1000 ppm U were then analyzed by U-XRF-10 analysis.
