August 17, 2010 Diamonds North Increases Extent Of HI-2 Iron Formation Over 800%
VANCOUVER, August 17th, 2010 -- Diamonds North Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: DDN) has completed initial gold prospecting at the HI-2 iron formation on the 100% owned Halkett Inlet property located in Nunavut. The extent of iron formation and potential gold mineralization has now been traced for at least 55 kilometres, a significant increase from the 6.5 kilometres (see News Release NR10-01, January 17th, 2010). A total of 428 geochemical samples have been collected for analysis.
"The 2010 prospecting campaign has been very successful as it has moved this regional target quickly into what could be a very significant gold play" says Mark Kolebaba, President & CEO of Diamonds North.
The iron formation measures 1 to 3 metres wide and in some areas up to 20 metres wide. Preliminary grab samples from HI-2 collected in 2009 yielded assays between 0.7 and 1.2 g/T gold demonstrating that the iron formation is gold bearing. The HI-2 prospect is only 5 kilometres from the coast.
Graham Gill (P. Geo) is Diamonds North's qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, reviewing this project. Mr. Gill is responsible for the design and conduct of exploration programs and the verification and quality assurance of analytical results.
