Canadian Arrow - Assay update, underground resource estimate update initiated
Tue Apr 29, 9:02 AM

ca.news.finance.yahoo.com

SUDBURY, ON, April 29 /CNW/ - Canadian Arrow Mines, Ltd. (CRO: TSX-V) (the "Company") reports assay results for the remaining diamond drill holes from the deep drilling portion of the Kenbridge project. The company completed 60 diamond drill holes (17,786m) during the fall of 2007 and early 2008, below the open pit portion of the deposit. Drilling has successfully traced Ni-sulphide mineralization down to the 375m level of the deposit. The results will be incorporated with the historical database in order to produce an updated resource estimate for the underground portion of the deposit. The resource estimate for the proposed open pit consists of 6.7 million diluted tonnes grading 0.38% Ni and 0.23% Cu to a depth of 160m. The updated resource estimate will be completed by P&E Mining Consultants of Brampton, Ontario.


Assay result highlights:

- KB-07-181 - 0.77% Ni, 0.29% Cu, 0.02% Co, over 17.8 m
- including 1.00% Ni, 0.32% Cu, 0.03% Co over 12.3 m

- KB-07-185 - 1.22% Ni, 0.35% Cu, 0.03% Co, over 17.8 m
- Including 2.46% Ni, 0.42% Cu, 0.05% Co, over 4.6 m

- KB-07-196 - 0.72% Ni, 0.48% Cu, 0.02% Co, over 23.5 m
- Including 1.27% Ni, 0.55% Cu, 0.04% Co, over 5.2 m


Commenting on the results, Todd Keast, Vice President Exploration of the Company stated "The assay results demonstrate the excellent continuity of the Kenbridge mineralization at depth. A pronounced orientation to the higher grade ore shoots will be modeled into the updated underground resource estimate. Recently announced higher nickel recoveries (see Press Release April 16/08), a robust drill hole database will contribute to a positive impact on underground resource estimate and the overall project economics. Within a year we have completed the surface drilling of the deposit, undertaken a series of environmental and geotechnical studies, purchased key pieces of mining equipment, and entered formal consultations with Treaty 3 First Nations. We remain committed to developing the Kenbridge Project into a viable mining operation."

These results represent completion for this phase of the Kenbridge project. Future drilling on Kenbridge will be evaluated upon completion of the updated resource estimate. Drilling has since progressed onto the Company's regional exploration targets.

Analytical Method

-----------------

Mineralized diamond drill hole intervals reported are down hole core lengths only. NQ diameter drill core samples are split in half; one half being retained in its original core box and the second half sent to an independent commercial laboratory for analysis. Samples are analyzed by ISO 17025 accredited Accurassay Laboratories in Thunder Bay, Ontario. Samples analyzed for base metals (nickel, copper, and cobalt) are digested using aqua regia with an atomic absorption finish.

The exploration program is being carried out under the direction of the Company's Vice President of Exploration, Todd Keast P. Geo., a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. The information in this release was prepared under the direction of Kim Tyler, P. Geo., President of the Company, a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101.
