(formerly Winspear Resources Ltd.) has released its results for the three months ended March 31, 2000. The company had a net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2000, of $433,000 (one cent per share), compared with a loss of $541,000 (one cent per share) for the same period in 1999. The reduced loss resulted from the increase in interest income and management fees received in the period, offset in part by increases in administrative costs. These financial results are reported on the basis that the company holds an 85-per-cent ownership in the Camsell Lake property which contains the Snap Lake diamond project. This interest is subject to litigation. At March 31, 2000, on the aforementioned basis, the company had cash of $12.3-million and a networking capital of $5.8-million at March 31, 2000. Subsequent to March 31, 2000, Winspear received payments of approximately $8.5-million from its joint venture partner, some of which is not reflected in these financial statements.
