Pifher Resources Inc. (the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has now completed 71 kilometers of line cutting and detailed magnetometer and VLF electromagnetic surveys, at 50 meter intervals, on its original 26 unit claim mineral property in Pifher Township, Ontario.
A detailed geological mapping program is well underway and pursuant to geological interpretations thus far, the Company has staked an additional thirty claims, adjacent to the original property. The company also entered into an arms-length agreement with Spruce Ridge Resources Ltd. to acquire a 100% interest (subject to a 1% Net Smelter Royalty) in a further 28 unit claims, also contiguous to the original property for a total price of $30,000 cash. The deal is expected to close on or before July 25, 1999.
The Company's property, which upon completion of the deal with Spruce Ridge will comprise 84 unit claims, overlies the nose of a large, ultramafic intrusive, that has the potential to host Nickel, Cobalt and Platinum-Paladium Group minerals. Diamond drilling is expected to be commenced by sometime in August on several magnetic and electromagnetic anomalies that have been detected.
For further information, please contact Gary Conn, President and Director, at (519) 858-8188 or Martha McGroarty, Secretary, at (416) 360-4031.
