Better Resources Ltd BRZ Shares issued 9,523,054 Jan 10 close $0.30 Fri 10 Jan 97 News Release Also Prism Resources Inc (PRN) Mr Cliff Rennie and Mr Earl Dodson report The 12 drill hole stage III program on the Atkinson joint venture in the Deteor Lake area of Ontario has been concluded and all assays have been received. A report is being compiled and plans for further work in the new year are being made. Holes 96-19, 20, 22, 23, 25 and 26 tested the up-dip extent of the zone, with 1m samples in the main zone ranging from 0.21 to 0.65 g/t gold. Holes 96-18, 21, 24, 28 and 29 were vertical holes to test the down-dip extent which appears to be strengthening in alteration and structure to the northeast. Hole 96-27 was -55 SE hole from the same setup as 96-28. Hole 96-29, the most northerly hole, cut 2m of 0.18 g/t gold from 67 to 69m and 1m of 3.94 g/t from 83 to 84m in a wide main zone. The combined stage II and III have now traced this strong zone for 100 metres along strike and 200 metres down-dip, but to only 90m below surface. A continuous zone with good gold values has been established with potential open in all directions. An induced polarization survey is planned to add targets along strike and down-dip, to be followed by additional drilling. An additional 37 claim units were staked immediately south and attached to the Lipton claims to cover the projection of the Lipton zone to the south as indicated by airborne geophysics.
