BASE METALS — Lewis Brooks resumes work

Junior Lewis Brooks Resources (LBRL-C) has begun drilling at the Lewis Brook base metal property in New Brunswick.

The program, to consist of four or five holes over 600 metres, will test areas where geochemical surveying indentified anomolous lead, zinc and silver values. The 11,775-ha property is said to be underlain by rhyolite and basalt flows, mafic and fesic tuffs, and siltstone. Lewis Brooks can earn a full interest in the property, 200 km north of Fredericton, by paying $70,000 and spending $235,000 on exploration by 2000.
