SUDBURY, ON, Jan. 22 /CNW/ - Canadian Arrow Mines Ltd. (CRO:TSX-V) (the "Company") wishes to announce that it has signed two option agreements to acquire mineral properties located in the Dryden area, Kenora Mining Division, District of Kenora, Ontario.
The two properties are in close proximity of each other and will, in aggregate, comprise a new Canadian Arrow nickel-copper exploration project in the Ghost Lake area about 75 km northeast of the Company's Kenbridge Project. The properties, although historically explored in the past for other metals, were not explored for nickel and copper. Subsequent grab sampling in 1983 of massive sulphides exposed on surface trenches reported values as high as 0.65% nickel, 1.57% copper, 70 ppb Pt and 105 ppm Pd.
The terms of the first agreement include the payment of a total of $100,000 cash in tranches over four years, the issuance of a total of 100,000 shares of the Company in tranches over four years and the expenditure of a total of $100,000 on the properties over four years. The properties are subject to a 2% net smelter royalty, one half of which can be bought back by the Company for $1.0 million.
The terms of the second agreement include the payment of a total of $100,000 cash in tranches over four years, the issuance of a total of 100,000 shares of the Company in tranches over four years and the expenditure of a total of $100,000 on the properties over four years. The properties are subject to a 2% net smelter royalty, one half of which can be bought back by the Company for $1.0 million.
Todd Keast, the Vice President of Exploration stated, "The Ghost Lake Property once again indicates the fertility of nickel-copper deposits in the Wabigoon-Atikwa region. The inclusion of the Ghost Lake project into the pipeline of other quality nickel-copper properties acquired by Arrow over the last eight months will improve the Company's chances of developing a second project of the caliber of the Company's Kenbridge Project."
These transactions are subject to regulatory approval.
The exploration program is being carried out under the direction of The Company's Vice President of Exploration, Todd Keast; P. Geo., a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. The information in this release was prepared under the direction of Kim Tyler; P. Geo. President of the Company, a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101.
