MLM.V News, Millstream Intersects Au 10.84 Oz. Per Ton (371.66 G/T)/
TORONTO, ONTARIO--(CCNMatthews - Feb. 19, 2007) - Millstream Mines Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:MLM)(FRANKFURT:NJD) is pleased to report that its' Tamarack surface decline (Azimuth 103 deg, Slope -15%) was stopped at 205 ft. (62.48 m) down slope. At 138 ft. (41.45 m) down the decline, a south bearing drift (Az. 150 deg.) was collared and aimed to intersect the surface diamond drill hole DDH 04-01. At a distance of 30 ft. (9.14 m), the drift intersected DDH 04-01 and has continued 49 ft. (14.93 m) beyond on the same azimuth. This drift has consistently remained in mineralization to date.
A channel sample of a 1.5 ft. (.457 m) wide seam across the drift face located approximately 25 ft. (7.62 m) past DDH 04-01 assayed Au 10.84 opt (oz. per ton) (371.66 g/t) and Ag 0.21 opt (7.2 g/t) with check assay of 10.877 opt over 7 ft. from drift right wall to left wall.
A channel sample of the left wall located at the DDH 04-01 area of intersection assayed Au 0.45 opt (15.43 g/t) and Ag 0.15 opt (5.14 g/t) over 8 ft. from the back to the sill of the drift.
As previously reported, (see PR Dec. 6, 2006) all excavated mineralized material is being stockpiled on surface. This stockpile currently consists of approximately 900 tons. A representative testing of the stockpile by first, a random collection of grab samples around the stockpile, then the mixing in a barrel and quartering of these collected samples, resulted in an assay of Au 0.42 opt (14.4 g/t) and Ag 0.92 opt (31.54 g/t).
