Brush Creek Hires Expert Diamond Consultant, Rohtert Calls Company Property 'Most Prospective' for Unconventional Diamonds in North America
GRASS VALLEY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 7, 1997--Brush Creek Mining a (NASDAQ:BCMD) Effective October 14, 1997, Brush Creek Mining and Development Company Inc. (NASDAQ:BCMD - news) is pleased to announce that it has retained the services of William R. Rohtert, who will contribute his talents as a consulting geologist and gemologist for their prospective diamond properties in California.
Previously, Rohtert served as the Manager of Gemstones for the Kennecott Exploration Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Rio Tinto organization. During the past six years, Rohtert's involvement with diamonds has primarily focused on the development of new exploration models for unconventional sources, with extensive research and reconnaissance conducted in the Sierra Nevada province of California, and the coastal foldbelts of southeastern Australia, as well as the Urals Mountains of Russia. He has also performed comprehensive investigations of conventional kimberlite and lamproite diamond pipes on three continents.

Rohtert stated to the press, ''Based upon my experience, the lands controlled by the Company within the LaPorte district comprise the most prospective ground for the discovery of an unconventional diamond lode deposit in North America.''
