Fall - Winter Work Program - Metallurgical Test Results
Vancouver B.C. November 28, 2005 - Pacific Booker Minerals Inc., in consultation
with Beacon Hill Consultants (1988) Ltd and Knight Piesold Ltd., will commence a
drill program to complete pit delineation and geotechnical drilling at the
Morrison property. This drill program will also include geotechnical drilling
for the waste disposal area and condemnation drilling. The information obtained
from the drill program will be used to determine the geotechnical criteria for
pit wall design, the waste disposal site design and mine plant foundation
design. Twenty-four holes will be drilled for a total length of 3,685 metres
plus 35 geotechnical test-pits will be excavated on the waste disposal site and
plant site.
Process Research Associates Ltd. has completed a metallurgical test-work program
to establish a metallurgical database for the Morrison Project. The database
will be used to establish design criteria in conjunction with other disciplines
to determine mining and resource estimates. The findings of the report confirm
earlier findings by International Metallurgical and Environmental Inc. A news
release dated August 28, 2002, stated "Pacific Booker initiated preliminary
metallurgical test work by International Metallurgical and Environmental Inc. on
the three basic potential ore types: mineralized BFP, mineralized sediment and
fracture filling clay carbonate altered zone. Initial results indicated that the
metallurgical recoveries would be very similar to the recoveries achieved at the
nearby Bell Mine." To view the Process Research Associates Ltd. metallurgical
