GMD sells Discovery project; pays settlement

GMD Resource Corp GMD
Shares issued 25,953,075 Jul 23 close $0.04
Wed 24 Jul 2002 News Release
Mr. Rodney Duncan reports
GMD Resource, further to news in Stockwatch of May 7, 2002, has fully paid
the $230,000 settlement that was due to a former employee of the company.
The matter resulted from the termination of the former employee's
employment agreement with the company and LMX Resources Ltd. which
employment agreement was terminated by the then president of the company.
The company also reports that the sale of its Discovery gold project, NWT,
to Tyhee Development Corp. as previously reported in Stockwatch on March
22, 2002, has completed and the company has received from Tyhee the
purchase price of $265,000. The company retains a net smelter royalty over
the combined Nicholas Lake property, NWT (also owned by Tyhee and in
proximity to the Discovery property), and the Discovery property as
follows:
0.75 per cent for the first five years or until recovery of plant capital,
whichever occurs first, and thereafter;
1 per cent up to a gold price of $300.00 per ounce;
1.5 per cent from a gold price of $300.00 to $350.00 per ounce;
1.75 per cent from a gold price of $350.00 to $500.00 per ounce; and
2.25 per cent above a gold price of $500.00 per ounce.
With the above settlement behind it the company will focus on its
100-per-cent-owned Royce group diamond claims, NWT. In May, 2002, the
company filed an updated assessment report on the Royce group claims with
the mining recorder's office, NWT. As previously reported in Stockwatch on
June 21, 2002, the company's consulting geologist has provided a proposed
work program and budget for the further exploration and development of the
Royce group Diamond claims. The proposed work program is subject to
financing.
The company's Royce group claims are located approximately 250 kilometres
southwest of the BHP Ekati claim block and 120 kilometres northwest of
Yellowknife. Five individual indicator mineral trains have been identified
from previous work. Four of the defined indicator trains lie in the
southeast area of the property near Wheeler Lake with the fifth lying 20
kilometres north near Bessonette Lake. Each train has distinctive mineral
chemistries and spatial relationships suggesting multiple sources. As
previously reported in Stockwatch on Dec. 17, 2001, indicator mineral
counts are as high as 71 grains (0.3 millimetre-1.0 millimetre) per
10-litre till sample. The mineral chemistries show G10 garnets, diamond
inclusion spinels and ilmenites indicating good diamond preservation
potential. To date the various indicator mineral trains remain unexplained.
