Ashburton Ventures (ABR-V) acquires Ontario graphite claims
July 26, 2013 - News Release
Ashburton Ventures Inc. has acquired the Page claims adjoining the Albany graphite deposit that is presently under advanced exploration by Zenyatta Ventures Ltd. Zenyatta recently announced intervals of 146 metres of 5.2 per cent graphite, 177 metres of 5.3 per cent graphite, 186 metres of 4.9 per cent graphite and 125 metres of 4.6 per cent graphite, respectively (see Zenyatta Ventures news release dated July 2, 2013). Mike England, president of Ashburton Ventures, stated: "This acquisition once again puts Ashburton in one of the most exciting and talked about exploration plays in North America. With just over 20 million shares outstanding, and projects located in the Athabasca basin (uranium in the vicinity of and adjoining Alpha Minerals), in northwest British Columbia (copper-gold in the vicinity and adjoining Colorado Resources) and now next to Zenyatta's Albany graphite deposit, we feel Ashburton Ventures offers tremendous leverage for its shareholders. With the financing recently completed, work programs for all three projects are currently in line or under way, and we look forward to this very exciting, ongoing 2013 exploration season."
