Eagle Plains Provides Update on Vulcan Drilling Program, Receives Approval for Warrant Expiry Extension

CRANBROOK, BC / ACCESSWIRE / September 12, 2022 / Eagle Plains Resources Ltd. (TSXV:EPL) ("EPL" or "Eagle Plains") reports that the first hole of the 2022 drilling program (VU22003) on Eagle Plains' 100% owned Vulcan project has been successfully completed to a depth of 630m (2067') (see EPL news release August 25th, 2022). Drill-hole VU22003 reported minor disseminated sphalerite (zinc) mineralization near the top of the hole and intersected a narrow (<10cm) band of strataform sulphide (pyrrhotite) mineralization approximately 20m below the Lower Middle Contact ("LMC") in rocks of the Aldridge Formation. Preliminary results obtained using a portable XRF spectrometer indicate elevated zinc values for the interval. Geologists interpret this mineralization to represent the Sullivan time horizon and are encouraged with the results. A down-hole geophysical survey is planned for the area surrounding the hole to test for thickening and possible enrichment of the mineralized horizon proximal to the hole.

Drill-hole VU22004 is now underway at a drill-pad located approximately 8km to the NE, testing the same stratigraphic horizon. To date, drilling has progressed to approximately 150m with a total depth of 425m planned. Detailed results will be released once they have been received, compiled and interpreted.
