The drill program was designed to test the geometry and grade distribution of porphyry copper mineralization discovered late last year. The company says the mineralization lies below 4 to 18 metres of glacial till. Results from the latest holes outline a zone that is 400 metres north-south by 600 metres east-west, and more than 360 metres deep. The zone is open in all directions. Holes drilled this year had copper equivalent values from 0.3 to 0.6%, and the intervals are relatively long. Amarc is also drilling the Ike copper-moly property near Gold Bridge and the Joy copper-gold property 310 km north of Mackenzie.
