Benton and Teck survey shows large King Lake anomalies 2007-06-07 11:18 ET - News Release Also News Release (C-TCK) Teck Cominco Ltd Mr. Stephen Stares of Benton reports BENTON RESOURCES CORP. (BTC) IDENTIFIES LARGE CONDUCTIVE ANOMALIES ON KING LAKE NICKEL PROPERTY 60KM NORTH OF VOISEY'S BAY DEPOSIT Benton Resources Corp. and its partner Teck Cominco Ltd. have received a final report from Aeroquest Ltd. on the recently completed airborne survey at the King Lake nickel project in Labrador, located 60 kilometres (km) north of the world-class Voisey's Bay nickel deposit. The King Lake nickel project is host to numerous, high-grade nickel-copper showings that have returned up to 6.8 per cent copper and 1.9 per cent nickel. The airborne geophysical survey located several strong electromagnetic anomalies on the property including a large conductive zone which measures greater than 400 metres wide by 1,000 metres long. This large conductive zone is coincident with a moderate magnetic anomaly, a rusty gossanous outcrop, and many nickel-copper-cobalt lake sediment anomalies similar to those in the vicinity of the Voisey's Bay deposit. The conductive zone is also spatially related to the outer rim of a large intrusion and east-west oriented structures, comparable with the environment noted at the Voisey's Bay deposit. Benton is excited about the results and believes the conductors could represent possible nickel-rich and copper-rich sulphide zones. Ground follow-up efforts are scheduled to begin in mid- to late June. Clinton Barr (PGeo), vice-president exploration for Benton Resources is the qualified person responsible for this news release. We seek Safe Harbor.
