Updates from three exploration projects International Canalaska Resources Ltd ICA Shares issued 18,882,794 Jul 21 close $0.25 Tue 21 Jul 98 News Release Mr. Harry Barr reports The company has received results from three separate exploration projects. Timmins, Ontario CanAlaska has a received final reports and results from a 1455 line-kilometre, helicopter borne EM/magnetic survey on the Timmins, Michie and Blackrock properties. CanAlaska has an option to earn a 50 per cent interest in the Timmins property from East West Resource, Canadian Golden Dragon and Cross Lake Minerals. The property is immediately on strike to the south of Cross Lake's Sheraton-Timmins project, where recent drilling encountered substantial widths of zinc, silver and copper in a volcanogenic setting. CanAlaska's airborne survey results confirm that the host formations for the Sheraton-Timmins mineralization continue south onto the CanAlaska ground. A program of gridding and ground geophysical survey will start in early August to define targets for drill testing. The Michie property, 100 per cent owned by CanAlaska, covers the continuation of the prospective volcanic host rocks southwards from the Timmins property. The Blackrock property, in which CanAlaska can earn a 100 per cent interest, covers possibly equivalent volcanics to the east. Labrador CanAlaska has received a full report of the results of the SVB-1 project in South Voisey's Bay. Six conductors and an associated coincident magnetic anomalies, have been identified adjacent to or at the margin of the olivine gabbro sill which hosts mineralization on the adjoining ground, currently being explored by Donner Minerals and joint venture partners. Mexico CanAlaska recently completed a program of surface sampling and geological mapping on the Colores concession, Chihuahua state, Mexico. The work returned a number of high grade gold values from narrow structurally controlled shears and quartz veins. The results are being evaluated to determine if any of the occurrences have sufficient size potential to warrant more detailed exploration.
