Beauchamps gets option

An option has been acquired by Beauchamps Exploration from Falconbridge Ltd. on a property located in Bourlamaque Twp. near Val d’Or, Que. Known as the Callahan property, the claims cover an 800-ft-wide felsic intrusive which has yielded anomalous gold values. Beauchamps can earn a 49% interest by spending $250,000 on exploration this year. Falconbridge, which is the project operator, will begin an initial drill program of 10,000 ft.
