DIAMOND NEWS ROUNDUP — Drilling tests Alberta anomalies

Drill-testing of nine potential kimberlite targets is under way on a 215,000-acre block of claims near Hinton, Alta.

The property is held 50% by Montello Resources (MEO-A), 40% by Troymin Resources (TYR-A), 5% by New Claymore Resources (NCS-V) and 5% by privately owned Rich Resource Investments. The block of claims is under option to Kennecott Canada, which can earn a 60% interest by spending $2 million on exploration. The targets were identified by means of air and ground geophysics, as well as geochemical stream-sediment sampling.
