Sunrise Resources plc provided update on the completion of the drilling programme announced on 13 July 2017. The plan for the recently completed drill programme was announced on 14 June 2017 and comprised five holes to test the perlite-pozzolan areas in the centre of the Main Zone. The drilling, which started and finished on schedule, progressed quickly and available budgets allowed for a further four drill holes to be added to the programme. Two additional holes were drilled at one site in the Main Zone to provide structural information and two holes were drilled in the Tuff Zone. Drilling in the Main Zone encountered thick intervals of glassy rock visually identified as pozzolan and perlite. Thicknesses up to 27m from surface (perlite and pozzolan in Hole 17CSRC3) are comparable to those reported from many commercial deposits currently in production. Drilling in the Main Zone is currently too widely spaced, with drill holes 150-200m apart, to confirm correlation between holes. However, it is noted that the target zones were intersected in all drill holes completed in this programme with no significant overburden. Drilling on the Tuff Zone encountered thick intervals of the target tuff including 61m of tuff in hole 17CSRC8 from bedrock surface to the end of hole. The tuff is mapped as dipping at a very shallow angle and so the intersection in this vertical hole approximates true thickness. Further information on the target zones intersected in this drill programme is shown in the accompanying table. Designation of the intervals as pozzolan-perlite or pozzolan is currently based on the visual appearance of drill samples, but is supported by continuity with adjacent surface exposures already tested positive by the Company as perlite-pozzolan or pozzolan. The Company has a high level of confidence in this designation but a comprehensive testing programme is now underway on the drill samples to confirm this and to ensure that the quality of the surface material continues at depth. Pozzolan and perlite testing is an ongoing process with multiple sequential tests being undertaken over significant time periods. The tests are designed to not only confirm the industrial value of the CS Project but to encourage further end-user testing of samples. Material developments will be announced as they arise.
