THUNDER BAY, ONT. JANUARY 2, 2003
Shares Issued: 24,883,058
WOLFDEN RESOURCES INC. (TSX-V:YWO) is pleased to announce that it has signed an agreement to acquire the remaining 30% interest to hold a 100% interest in the My-Ritt Property from Explorers Alliance Corporation by paying $50,000 cash and 40,000 shares of Wolfden.
The My-Ritt Property is located immediately north of the Newman-Heyson and Nova-Co Properties that are currently being explored under a joint venture with Kinross Gold Corporation. The My-Ritt Property is host to one of the most significant, untested, hinge folds in ultramafic rocks in the Red Lake area. Folded ultramafic rock units, and associated fault (shear) structures are believed to be the key controlling factor of the main high-grade zones in Red Lake (Goldcorp) and Campbell (Placer Dome) gold mines in Red Lake.
Wolfden recently completed a Phase I exploration program which consisted of linecutting, a ground magnetics geophysical survey, and soil geochem sampling. Several gold-in-soil anomalies have been identified on the Property, which will be drilled this winter.
WOLFDEN is a Canadian based mineral exploration and development company with a diversified portfolio of advanced stage properties and several ongoing exploration programs in Canada. Wolfden is debt free and has a strong treasury.
