MONTREAL,
Oct. 3, 2011 /PRNewswire/ - Colt
Resources Inc. ("Colt" or the "Company") (TSXV: GTP) (FRA: P01)
(OTCQX: COLTF) is very pleased to announce that it has received
final analytical results for nine holes from its ongoing drilling
campaign at its Tabuaço (São Pedro das Águias) tungsten project,
located in the Company's wholly owned Armamar‐Meda concession in
northern Portugal.
These results are part of an ongoing drilling
program designed to provide data on the internal grade and
structural consistency of the deposit and to test for lateral
extensions of several richly mineralized skarn horizons.
Colt's current drilling program is designed to
confirm and expand the historical, non NI 43‐101 compliant resource
estimate of 1 million tonnes grading 0.87% WO3 (SPE‐BRGM
JV, early 1980's). These, and previously reported, results indicate
that the deposit is open in all directions and that grades and
thicknesses are increasing as one steps away from the historical
resource zone.
Nikolas Perrault,
President and CEO of Colt, says, "Results of these holes
continue to confirm that the deposit model is robust and that the
predicted grades and thicknesses are being achieved."
Four diamond drill rigs are currently in
operation on the deposit so as to increase data flow as the company
moves towards the preparation and delivery of an initial NI 43-101
resource estimate later this year.
The results are summarized as follows:

* True Width was determined assuming the mineralization has
an average strike of 1350 and an average
dip of -20o.
Our geological team has reported that drillholes
DHT-21 and DHT-27 were drilled close to a fault zone and did not
intersect significant mineralization.
Quality Assurance / Quality Control (QA/QC)
Sample intervals are reported as both metres (m)
downhole and as true thickness, which have been calculated using
cross sectional interpretation of the mineralized intercepts in
three dimensions. The actual dip of the skarn controlled
mineralization is generally shallow.
All drill core is transported by Company
personnel from drill site to a nearby secure storage facility for
logging and sampling. Sampling intervals are defined after core
logging and determination of scheelite content by examination under
short‐wave UV‐light. One half of the core is sent for
analysis, while the other half is retained in the core boxes for
future reference.
Samples are sent by courier to OMAC Laboratories
Ltd, Galway, Ireland or to ALS
Laboratory Group, Seville, Spain.
Samples are analyzed for W and Sn using a metaborate fusion
followed by XRF. Assay results for tungsten are reported by the
laboratory as W%. WO3 values are calculated using a
conversion factor of 1.2611.
A set of standards, duplicates and blanks is
inserted by Colt into the sample stream on a regular basis in
addition to the laboratory's own internal QA/QC standards and
duplicates. QA/QC results to date are well within the accepted
norm.
