NDT INCREASES LAND POSITION AND PLANS FOR AIRBORNE SURVEY ON ...
NDT Ventures has provides an update on its Amarok property located 70
kilometres northwest of Rankin Inlet in Nunavut, Canada.
In November, 2001, NDT finalized an agreement with the Hunter Exploration
Group, to acquire this new property discovered during a regional
exploration program. At Amarok, gold values occur within a banded iron
formation (BIF) that is upward of 100 metres thick and has yielded gold
values of up to 9.8 grams per tonne at the AV Wolf discovery occurrence.
NDT's initial field investigation has confirmed previous sampling and
defined surface gold mineralization over a 100-metre by 600-metre area that
remains open along strike. Of 57 samples taken, 30 reported gold values
exceeding 100 parts per billion with 16 assaying in excess of one gram per
tonne gold. Anomalous gold values from chip sampling of BIF have been
identified, on strike, over one kilometre to the northeast of the
discovery, suggesting the productive horizon may extend over several
kilometres.
Government regional magnetic data show that the AV Wolf discovery lies on
the southern end of a prominent 17-kilometre-long, northeast trending,
magnetic high measuring up to three kilometres wide. A second magnetic high
occurs approximately three kilometres along strike to the northeast. This
target extends the trend an additional eight kilometres and is up to three
kilometres wide. To cover the area of potential, the company has acquired
additional prospecting permits and exploration claims and its land position
now totals over 70,000 hectares. Only a small portion of this ground has
been investigated to date.
NDT's next phase of exploration will include a program of detailed airborne
magnetics over the main two anomalies and the surrounding ground. The
objective of this work will be to locate and prioritize specific targets
that can be field checked in search of potential drill targets. NDT can
earn a 100-per-cent interest in the property, subject to a royalty, by
conducting exploration totalling $1,125,000, issuing one million shares and
paying $30,000 in cash over a four-year period. This agreement is subject
to confirmation of regulatory approval.
The Amarok property is situated within a highly prospective geological
terrain known to host large gold deposits. The Meliadine West zone, located
40 kilometres to the southeast, reports a 4.9 million-ounce resource and
the Meadowbank property, located 200 kilometres to the northwest, contains
a resource of three million ounces.
The company is very pleased to have acquired such a prospective early stage
gold project, and will keep its shareholders informed as exploration
progresses.
WARNING: The company relies upon litigation protection for
"forward-looking" statements.
