ABSTRACT:Imperial Metals Corporation (the “Company”) (TSX:III) reports results from the completed underground drilling program at Mount Polley in the Martel and Green zones located beneath the Wight pit, approximately 400 metres east of the recently developed and mined Boundary zone. The results included in this release are from the final 16 holes in this program, MU-17-10 to MU-17-25. The underground exploration program consisted of 6,680 metres in 25 holes, and complements surface drilling done mainly in 2003-2005. Four drill stations were established at 25-metre intervals along an exploration drift about 400 metres east of the Boundary zone underground workings. Holes were drilled on azimuths ranging from 070° to 090° at shallow to moderate angles, crossing the Brown Wall fault and into the Martel breccia. The results of the first nine holes were released on February 28, 2017. This mineralization, originally called the Northeast zone after its 2003 discovery, is believed to have formed in a vertical hydrothermal breccia body within a complex of monzonitic intrusions. It now occurs in two large segments which were formerly contiguous but are now separated by the steeply southwest-dipping Brown Wall fault. The upper hanging wall portion was mined in the Wight pit (2005-2009).
