Proposed Ontario JV

Major General Resources Ltd MGJ
Shares issued 33,186,119 Apr 29 close $0.49
Thu 30 Apr 98 News Release
Mr. Glenn Shevchenko reports
The company has signed a letter of intent allowing for a joint venture to
be formed with Calgary-based Binary Investments Ltd. on a newly staked gold
property in northwestern Ontario. Under the joint venture terms, the
company would own a 25 per cent interest in the property with Binary
holding the remaining 75 per cent. In order to retain its interest, Binary
must spend $1-million in exploration over five years or be diluted on a
pro-rata basis.
The 57-unit Tonsil-Dobie property is located between Barrick Gold's Golden
Patricia mine (800,000 tons grading 0.50 oz/t) and Major General's Dorothy
Lake claims (resource of 238,000 tons of 0.162 oz/t). Past exploration on
the Tonsil-Dobie property by Lac Minerals/Bond Gold delineated two gold
zones with one hosting a resource of 330,695 tons grading 0.15 oz/t gold.
The property covers a 6km strike length of favourable splay structures that
were generated by the major northwesterly trending Bear Head fault zone.
The mineralized zones at both the Golden Patricia deposit and the Dorothy
Lake claims are hosted in similar splay structures.
An exploration program consisting of line-cutting, geophysical, geochemical
and geological surveys is planned for 1998 and will be designed to target
high grade gold mineralization along this favourable trend.
With its involvement in both the Tonsil-Dobie and Dorothy Lake properties,
the company has gained exposure in the 15km of favourable structure that
extends northwest from the Golden Patricia mine.
