Levelland Energy & Resources Ltd. Secures Claims in Significant Rich Nickel Discovery Area
VANCOUVER, British Columbia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 3, 1999-- Levelland Energy & Resources Ltd. (LVL.V), a junior resource company actively involved in the business of mineral exploration throughout the world, Tuesday announced that it has staked 106 mineral claims (approximately 4,200 acres) in the Lae Rocher region of Northwest Quebec. Lae Rocher is the site of a large nickel/copper discovery announced by Nuinsco Resources Ltd. (Toronto:NWI - news).
Recently, Nuinsco reported a discovery hole with nickel values of 10.8% over 3.2 metres (10.5 feet) at the base of the hole and 3.68% over 19 metres (62.3 feet) within a longer section of 37 metres (121.4 feet) that assayed 2.47% nickel. Levelland's ground is approximately 16 miles to the northeast and on trend to the discovery.
While resource companies have been overshadowed by Internet stocks such as Amazon.com , Yahoo (Nasdaq:YHOO - news), Excite , Netscape , America Online , EBAY , E-Trade Group , AmeriTrade Holding , Lycos , uBid , Geocities , and theglobe.com , Levelland Energy & Resources has been searching for value properties and preparing the company for the inevitable turnaround in the mining sector.
''We are excited and regard this result as a new and very significant discovery in a region that has received very limited exploration,'' stated Levelland Energy & Resources Ltd. President Don Coates.
Previously, the largest nickel reserves were discovered by Diamond Fields International (Toronto:DFI - news) in Boysey Bay with values of 2 percent. The Lae Rocher region in which Levelland's claims are located appear to have substantially greater values.
With current market prices of nickel being $1.93 per pound, a 200 pound valuation would equal $386 per ton. ''These very encouraging results require a full evaluation of the economic potential of the discovery and the best strategy for continued work,'' stated Coates.
