Initial near-term (12-month) NIP.V share price target of 40 cents, disruptive technology presents options to fully recover resources in any operating mine.

Nippon Dragon Resources Inc. (OTCQB:RCCMF)

NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, March 8, 2017 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Technology MarketWatch Journal is responsible for the content of this release. Nippon Dragon Resources Inc. (TSX-V: NIP) (OTCQB: RCCMF) (Frankfurt: D5O) is poised to enter an increasingly serious monetization stage of commercialization for its unique, patented, and disruptive Thermal Fragmentation (TF) technology. TF uses powerful burners (igniting diesel fuel and compressed air) to surgically extract ore, creating in the process large openings up to ~1 meter wide and up to 30 metres deep, in any direction -- ideal for chasing narrow gold laden quartz veins, among other applications. Early investors entering TSX-V:NIP now, at this pivotal phase of the Company's evolution, are apt to see spectacular gains as what we see developing under the hood of this Company becomes more apparent to the market and translates to share price appreciation.

This technology caught our attention, in-part, when we learned that Nikola Vukovic, BSc, M. Eng., QP strongly endorses Thermal Fragmentation. A well known professional in mining circles, Nikola Vukovic has held various senior leadership positions where he budgeted, constructed, commissioned and turned over large capital open pit and underground projects with major mining companies like BHP Billiton, Rio Tinto and Freeport McMoRan. He has a 30+ year successful career involving strategic planning, business development and in implementation of leading business practices for sustainable or event based value creation, re-engineering, optimization and process automation. The contacts he and others with impressive CVs at Nippon Dragon Resources Inc. have developed over the years is translating into an avalanche of attention to Thermal Fragmentation from multiple interested parties, to the point that the Company is now actively looking to expand to meet the demand for rental of TF Dragon units and to showcase the technology, expected to translate to outright leasing of the technology.

Thermal Fragmentation developed by Nippon Dragon Resources is now at a proven and mature stage.
Key points: Economical, Safety, and Stability:

The technology has been tested for a number of years over a number of mining projects. The final outcome is whenever conventional mining is not economical, this technology is able to tackle it. Under conventional (blasting) mining technology often narrow veins, section under 1 m, are skipped over so miners can move on to the next economic section of a deposit. The Nippon dragon Thermal Fragmentation technology can extract the gold selectively from the waste, capable of up to 30 m in any 3D direction, and then when development comes in it can simply remove the waste. Essentially, one can extract ahead of development the ore that would otherwise be treated as waste and use it to help pay for development. Thermal Fragmentation technology does not require conventional 5 m development openings, ~2.5 m will do, resulting in huge savings when looking at the quantities of waste that needs to be moved just to make access to certain areas. Additionally because no explosives are used, there are no stresses included on critical rock structures, allowing the technology to be applied in really unfavorable ground conditions -- this advantage also makes the technology appealing to civil industrial engineers for anchoring foundations and reinforcing cables, especially where care needs to be applied to not disturb pre-existing conditions in the rock.

Thermal fragmentation can either replace or complement conventional mining, the technology is expected to see mainstream acceptance in mining as having options to fully recover reserves in any operating mine is good from both an environmental and economic standpoint.

Reduce dilution and micro-fragmentation
(spalling/crushing of rock to 0 to 13 mm) -- More efficient & less expensive:

One of the key benefits of Thermal Fragmentation is that hard quartz rock fractures quickly into small particles, faster than the waste rock surrounding it, allowing high-grade quartz to be extracted with very minimal dilution from surrounding waste rock (something typical conventional blasting method would have lots of). The fragmented mineralized ore is reduced to rocks ranging from 0 to 13 mm in size. This micro-fracturing of the material, eliminates the need for primary and secondary crushing, and improves recoveries. The final result of less dilution and micro-fragmentation is more tonnage and higher-grades of desired product for the same dollar that would have otherwise been spent -- increase the yield, and increase the recovery, and the mine will increase its revenue in the end, with the same capacity that it had and the same cost to operate to similar capacity.

Markets Thermal Fragmentation will excel at:

1) Low tonnage, high-grade, low cost mill feed (incorporate into existing operations or extract left over reserves from closed mines): Left over uneconomical, technology limited, reserves can be revisited by Nippon Dragon's Thermal Fragmentation technology with very little cost because the infrastructure (e.g. shafts, drifts) has been developed and the money spent. Nippon Dragon can bring in its dragon unit with low cost, hook up to support systems in place, and extract up to 30 m in any direction in 3D. Nippon has demonstrated it can extract 5 to 10 tonnes/hr, one can use such materials to supplement/incorporate into an existing mine operation in a synchronized way.

2) Assist early stage exploration companies with bulk sampling of outcrops: The Nippon Dragon unit can tackle down from surface, drill down a pilot hole 20 m to 30 m deep and then expand the hole up to 1 m and extract a mineralized zone from the waste and effect a profit.

3) Civil Industrial Engineering.
