News Release - June 29, 1999
MARUM DISCLOSES PRIVATE PLACEMENT INVESTMENT
June 29, 1999 -- In September 1998, the Company purchased a private placement in Golconda Resources Ltd. ("GA" on The Alberta Stock Exchange). Marum purchased 165,000 units for a total cost of $33,000. Each unit consisted of one Golconda share at $0.20 per share and a share purchase warrant exercisable at $0.24 per share until September 17, 1999. The purchased shares and any shares obtained by the exercise of warrants are restricted from trading until September 17, 1999.
This disclosure is being made on the basis that the investment may now constitute a material asset. The hold period on the private placement and the warrant stock is now less than three months and the current value of the investment, assuming exercise of the warrant stock, is approximately $160,000 calculated on the basis of a recent Golconda share price of $0.60.
Golconda recently announced that favourable geology was encountered while drilling on Golconda's Saskatchewan property as described in several news announcements issued by Golconda since April 15, 1999.
The Golconda investment was made as part of a exploration agreement whereby Marum and Golconda would become 50% joint venture partners in certain specific mineral exploration properties that might be acquired as a result of exploration activities. No properties have been acquired under the terms of the agreement.
Marum's primary exploration focus remains its Chinchaga diamond and base metal exploration project in northern Alberta. Preparations are currently underway for an extensive summer mapping and sampling program that may include drilling on road accessible targets. The results of diamond analyses on drill core obtained in February are expected soon.
