DIAMOND PAGE — Spider targets near Wawa

Partners Spider Resources (SPQ-A) and KWG Resources (KWG-T) report that 231 diamonds were recovered from eight separate outcrops at their Wawa diamond project in Ontario.

Of this total, 37 stones were greater than 0.5 mm in one direction, including five greater than 0.8 mm in one dimension. Two of the eight outcrops were described as new diamond occurrences. The new showings are within 200 metres of each other and about 3.6 km from the original Sandor occurrence found in late 1995.

The partners say the diamonds were found in narrow (1-to-10-metre-wide) actinolite-rich ultramafic dykes crosscutting metasedimentary and metavolcanic stratigraphy, occasionally following tuffaceous contacts between metavolcanic units.
