Ashton Mining of Canada Inc (C-ACA) - News Release Ashton provides results of Renard 65 sample analysis Ashton Mining of Canada Inc ACA Shares issued 49,062,149 Jul 22 2003 close $ 2.63 Tuesday July 22 2003 News Release Mr. Robert Boyd reports ASHTON MINING OF CANADA INC.: PROGRESS REPORT; RENARD 65 MINI-BULK SAMPLE Ashton Mining of Canada has provided a progress report on the dense media separation (DMS) analysis of the approximately 17-tonne mini-bulk sample collected from the Renard 65 kimberlitic body during the winter 2003 program. Renard 65 is one of the eight kimberlitic bodies discovered by Ashton and its joint venture partner, Soquem Inc., on the Foxtrot property in north-central Quebec. Diamonds weighing 0.92 and 0.26 carat were recovered from 821 kilograms of material collected from Renard 65 in 2002. In Stockwatch news on June 26, 2003, Ashton reported that a diamond of at least four carats had been found in core from one of the holes drilled in the northern portion of the body during the winter 2003 program. The 17-tonne sample was collected during the winter 2003 program by drilling 15 core holes into the body. To date, 6.95 tonnes have been processed by DMS at Ashton's North Vancouver laboratory and observed for diamond content. This portion of the sample came from the southern half of the body. The 6.95 tonnes of material returned 2.35 carats of diamonds larger than 0.85 millimetre using a square aperture screen. These results give this portion of the mini-bulk sample an estimated diamond content of 34 carats per hundred tonnes. The largest diamonds recovered were brown and pale brown dodecahedral crystals weighing 0.77 and 0.2 carat. The remaining material was collected from the core holes drilled into the northern half of Renard 65 and is currently being processed by DMS. The full results of the 17-tonne sample are now expected before the end of August. Soquem is a wholly owned subsidiary of SGF Mineral inc., a subsidiary of Societe generale de financement du Quebec (SGF). The mission of the SGF is to carry out economic development projects in co-operation with partners and in accordance with accepted requirements of profitability.
