First Vanadium Corp. announced results from an additional 17 confirmation drill holes from within and along a 1,220 metres ("m") (4,000ft) corridor of mineralization at its Carlin Vanadium Project located 6 miles south of Carlin, Nevada. Three highlight intervals from this drilling encountered 41.15m (135ft) grading 0.84% vanadium ("V2O5"), 38.1m (125ft) grading 0.75% V2O5 and 27.43m (90ft) grading 0.84% V2O5. The average grade of these 17 holes is 0.54% V2O5. The average estimated true thickness of the zone in these 17 holes is 33.7m (110ft). First Vanadium President and Chief Executive Officer, Paul Cowley stated. Four of the holes, RCC1832, RCC1843, RCC1844 and RCC1867, ended in mineralization. Holes RCC1832, RCC1843 and RCC1867 also returned 10m (30ft) to 25m (75ft) thick, near surface, flatlying mineralized intervals above the main highgrade zone that graded between 0.21% and 0.26% V2O5. Thirteen of the 17 holes were angle holes; adjusted and estimated true thickness (Est. True) of their intercepts are displayed in the table above. The drill intercepts of the vertical holes are considered true thickness.
