Commerce Resources Corp. has begun a drill program at its 100% owned Ashram Rare Earth Deposit in Northern Quebec. The 4,000 meter drill program aims to increase the resource confidence from inferred to indicated and/or measured categories by targeting infill holes. An indicated or measured resource category is required for the ongoing Pre-feasibility Study. The drill program is expected to be completed in two phases from April-May and during the summer after a short hiatus for break-up. Fieldwork will also continue relating to geomechanical and hydrogeological programs.
