Far Resources Announces Plans for Ongoing Exploration and Future Drilling on its Zoro Lithium Property in Manitoba Vancouver, BC (FSCwire) - Far Resources Ltd (CSE:FAT) (FSE:F0R) www.farresources.com (“Far Resources” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce plans for additional exploration based on results from recently completed field work, ongoing analysis of drill data and modeling of historic information. Recent exploration on the property by Far Resources has identified locations of drill sites and collars from historic exploration of lithium-bearing pegmatite dykes on optioned ground adjacent to the Zoro1 claim and principal Dyke #1. Far Resources is preparing a three dimensional model with the new field data in combination with historic information to identify high priority drill targets. This approach led to the successful drill testing of Dyke #1 (see the Company’s news release dated January 9, 2017). The Company is also planning a geological mapping and prospecting program to commence as soon as snow cover permits for the assessment of high-grade lithium-bearing pegmatite dykes in trenches blasted at dykes 2 through 7, , to the northeast of Dyke #1. This work will involve exploration for additional pegmatite dykes reported in outcrop but not assessed by trenching. The geological results will be used to plan further exploration and support upcoming drill programs. Based on further information obtained from the recent drill program amended weighted averages from seven drill holes are presented in Table 1, below. Table 1. Amended weighted averages for Li2O from seven drill holes at the Zoro lithium property Weighted Averages DDH BEST INTERVALS DDHFAR16-001 1.46% Li2O over 1.6m DDHFAR16-002* 0.88% Li2O over 5.9m 1.32% Li2O over 2.8m DDHFAR16-003 1.13% Li2O over 12.1m DDHFAR16-004 0.55% Li2O over 1.3m DDHFAR16-005 1.31% Li2O over 1.5m DDHFAR16-006* 0.77% Li2O over 10.9m 1.31% Li2O over 1.4m DDHFAR16-007 1.10% Li2O over 23.4m 1.18% Li2O over 4.1m * Hole bottomed in spodumene-bearing pegmatite Keith Anderson, President and CEO, commented, “We are keen to continue our exploration and drill program on the Zoro Lithium Property which has already confirmed positive lithium results on Dyke #1. The expanded Zoro Project is highly prospective and we hope to continue advancing it given the continued positive outlook for lithium in the green energy sector. We are pleased to be attending PDAC where we can present our results and strategy face to face to our stakeholders”.

Looking good folks, stock is primed, chart is a beauty, everything is setting up for an amazing week next week
Excellent close at the high of the day, looks like resistance has been broken and we are on the way to a new 52wk high. Stay tuned
Far Resources drills 23 m of 1.1% Li2O and gets ready for 6 additional pegmatites Report #3 image: http://rockstone-research.com/images/10xx/FAT4b.jpg Looking southwest from Zoro‘s Dyke #1 towards the lake that serves as water source for drilling. Today, Far Resources Ltd. reported assay results from its phase-1 drill program on the Zoro Lithium Project near Snow Lake in mining-friendly Manitoba, Canada. The initial 7 holes successfully confirmed historic drilling on Dyke #1. Each hole intersected lithium-bearing spodumene mineralization over intervals of up to 28 m, with 2 holes terminated in mineralization. Based on today’s results, it appears that lithium grades and pegmatite widths are strongest in the northwest portions of Dyke #1, as shown by the wide and high-grade intersection in hole #7 (1.1% Li2O over 23 m). Further exploration, including additional drilling, will focus in this area of the dyke. At the south end, hole #1 intersected multiple thin pegmatite intervals, possibly due to faulting, returning 1.49% Li2O over 2 m. With a total of 1,140 m completed, the initial 7 holes were only drilled to shallow depths of 163 m on average. Phase-2 drilling is expected to test for mineralization extending at depth. image: https://www.rockstone-research.com/images/10xx/Zoro3en.png The average Li2O grade of all 7 holes exceeds 1%, which can be considered a “world-class” when comparing with other hard-rock lithium projects worldwide; e.g. the Mt. Cattlin Project in Australia (Galaxy Resources) with an average resource grade of 1.08% LiO2 (currently being developed into a mine). image: https://www.rockstone-research.com/images/10L/FAT27.jpg image: https://www.rockstone-research.com/images/10L/FAT25.jpg image: https://www.rockstone-research.com/images/10L/FAT31.jpg As being the case with most hard-rock lithium projects, one single lithium-bearing pegmatite is rarely sufficient to warrant a mining operation. However, pegmatites typically occur in clusters or dyke swarms. To date, an additional 6 pegmatites, outcropping at surface, are known to exist in proximity to Dyke #1 on the Zoro Property. Additional (hidden) pegmatites may get discovered under a shallow cover during the upcoming exploration programs. According to today’s news, a crew is immediately being mobilized to undertake a field assessment of these 6 known dykes. The upcoming phase-2 drill program is expected to test several of these (in addition to follow-up drilling at Dyke #1). Keith Anderson, President and CEO, commented today: “We are pleased that the results from our first drill program on the Zoro lithium property compare favorably with historic data. We have identified higher-grade portions of Dyke #1 which will be the focus of further exploration. Additionally, upcoming field work will assess six other known lithium-bearing pegmatite dykes on the property, where reconnaissance sampling over the summer returned values of up to 6.35% Li2O”. image: https://www.rockstone-research.com/images/10L/FAT21.JPG “As global lithium demand increases over coming years, hard-rock operations will be able to respond to market conditions much faster than their brine counterparts... With the recent lithium feedstock shortage in China, a number of low-grade, high cost deposits have been restarted to sell to downstream processors.“ (Deutsche Bank “Welcome to the Lithium-ion Age“; May 2016) image: https://www.rockstone-research.com/images/10L/FAT22.JPG In July 2016, Far Resources reported assays from a rock chip sampling program of 3 separate pegmatites/dykes on its Zoro Property (515 hectares): • Dyke 2 averaged 3.12% Li2O (2 samples) • Dyke 4 averaged 2.41% Li2O (1 sample) • Dyke 5 averaged 3.93% Li2O (4 samples; 2 exceeded 6% Li2O) Average of all 7 samples: 3.48% Li2O image: https://www.rockstone-research.com/images/10L/FAT13new2.jpg In 1956/1957, when lithium prices and demand were very low, a total of 78 shallow holes were drilled at Zoro by Green Bay Uranium Ltd., identifying 7 pegmatites. About 60% of these holes were drilled into Dyke 1, delineating a (historical) “reserve estimate” of 1.8 million t averaging 1.4 Li2O. Historic drilling was shallow to only test for near-surface mineralization, however it was noted that the pegmatites thicken at depth and remain largely untested below 200 m from surface. “Although lithium metal prices were first reported in trade publications in 1952, demand was very low. From 1952 to 1974, lithium prices remained flat in terms of current dollars; in terms of constant dollars, however, prices decreased. The potential use of lithium in batteries for electric vehicles was first discussed in the Minerals Yearbook in 1972. The downward trend in lithium metal prices reversed in 1974.“ (Joyce A. Ober in USGS 1999) image: https://www.rockstone-research.com/images/10L/FAT10.png Criteria facilitating Zoro to quickly advance to a world-class lithium project with the recently completed and upcoming drill programs: • Highly favourable metallurgy expected due to low impurities, such as iron, and a coarse-grained spodumene mineralization (white to light-greenish colour, similar to Whabouchi). • Nearby infrastructure (power line: 4 km; road: 11 km; airport: 12 km; rail: 34 km). • 7 known pegmatites provide significant resource definition potential in 2017. Sampling may identify new anomalies; stripping and trenching of anomalies may discover hidden pegmatites. • By-product potential (e.g. tantalum, caesium, rubidium) remains unknown. The Tanco Mine (Cabot Corp.) in southeast Manitoba used to produce lithium-bearing spodumene, and tantalum; currently producing only caesium (the world’s largest known pollucite deposit, accounting for 2/3 of known global resources). • Mining-friendly community (Snow Lake) and province (Manitoba) in a safe and stable mining jurisdiction. • First Nation consultation and engagement not required in the Flin Flon-Snow Lake greenstone belt where the Zoro Property is located.
