Millstream Mines Ltd.: News Release
TORONTO, ONTARIO--Millstream Mines Ltd. announces it has obtained funding commitments to satisfy its option obligations (PR Jan. 25, 2000) to purchase a block of 3 claims (locally called "Potterdoal Plunge Property") that abut the west side of the claim unit on which the Potterdoal Mine (past producer) shaft is located.
Millstream has signed an agreement with Orogrande Resources Inc. (CDN-X; ORG) in which ORG can earn a 49% interest by supplying funding of $400,000 over the next two years, making cash payments of $30,000 and issuing 100,000 common shares to Millstream.
The 3 claims are located north of Millstream's Potter Property and regional geology indicates they may be situated on the northern limb of a syncline with the Potter situated on the southern limb. Recent geophysics investigated and delivered chargeability and resistivity signatures associated with a target horizon generally characterized as hosting disseminated to massive sulphides. Diamond drilling done in the past on the property and abutting claims indicated a westerly trending mineralization which the current geophysics supports. Previous past drill intersections, as reported by Granges Exploration Ltd., intersected 7.7% Copper in Hole 92-09 over a 0.6 meter downhole section and 3.33% Zinc in hole 92-08 over a 2.3 metre downhole section. The planned exploration program is to drill test at various depths the identified favourable sulphide I.P. anomalies.
The principal objective of Millstream Mines Ltd. is to enhance and develop known mineral properties to production potential.
