For Immediate Release
Excellent Snettisham Exploration Sample Test Results
Highlights:
•§Ten grab samples were tested for magnetic separation using a Davis Tube Test: Sample 9 achieved 86.7% that contained 57% Fe, and Sample 4 achieved 57.2% that contained 40.8% Fe. This was very encouraging and further work will be undertaken.
•§A bulk sampling program will be undertaken in the next few weeks to concentrate the sampling in these two areas to determine the extent of each occurrence.
Vancouver, B.C. – July 3, 2012, Robert L. Card, President of Arrowstar Resources Ltd. (“Arrowstar” or the “Company”) (TSXV: AWS), is pleased to report that Phillip Thomas, Vice –President Exploration and Director of the Company, has received the final results of the samples taken from Port Snettisham, in Alaska in June 2012.
The Davis Tube Test is a test whereby the iron ore is crushed to approximately 0.15mm and then immersed into water and passed over a magnet for a period of time. At the end of the test, the iron ore sticking to the magnet is weighed and the non-magnetic material weighed and the percentage calculated.
Sample nine achieved excellent results with a recovery of 86.7% of magnetite from the pyroxenite. This means on a commercial scale at 75% efficiency approximately 1.54 units of ROM ore to one unit of magnetite would be produced. This is a very good recovery ratio and keeps waste to a minimum.
Proposals are being reviewed for a ground based aeromagnetic program that is the next step in our exploration program.
