Can we tell where TWG's focus is and it certainly doesn't give many indications of being on JI?
Twin Mining Acquires 100% Interest in Atlanta Gold Project
TORONTO, Jan. 9 /CNW/ - Twin Mining Corporation (TWG-TSX) is very pleased to announce that it has acquired Canadian American Mining Company, LLC's ("Can Am") 20% participating interest in the Atlanta Gold Project, located in Elmore County, Idaho, U.S.A. As a result of the agreement, Twin Mining now holds a 100% operating interest in the Atlanta Gold Project. Can Am retains a 2% Net Smelter Return royalty. Twin Mining is expecting the gold and silver assays for the core samples from the metallurgical drilling program, completed in early December 2002, shortly. A scoping study prepared in 1998, and updated in 1999, which was based on gold recovery grades obtained in an earlier metallurgical test series, concluded that from a measured mineral resource of more than one million ounces, gold could be produced at an estimated site cash cost of US$ 160 per ounce (see press release November 14, 2000). Twin Mining, in addition to the gold mining project in Idaho, United States of America is exploring the Jackson Inlet diamond project on Baffin Island and the TORNGAT diamond project on the east side of Ungava Bay in northern Quebec.<i/>
