Eloro Resources Ltd. (TSX-V:ELO) (FSE:P2Q) (“Eloro” or the “Corporation”) is pleased to announce that it has completed 2,261m of reconnaissance diamond drilling in 8 holes at the Rufina Target on the La Victoria Au Property in the North-Central Mineral Belt of Peru. Figure 1 is a plan map showing locations of the drill holes and hole traces. Holes ERU-01, -02, -03, -04 and -09 are on a NE-SW cross section approximately 800m long. Holes ERU-06, -07 and -08 are on a parallel cross section 500m long approximately 100m north of the first section. Significant values are shown in Table 1 below. Highlights include (all core lengths):
MGX Minerals Inc. (“MGX” or the “Company”) (CNSX: XMG, FSE: 1MG, OTCQB: MGXMF) is pleased to report the Company has engaged Highbury Energy Inc. (“Highbury”) to assist in preparing a detailed process to extract metals such as nickel, vanadium, and cobalt from petroleum coke (“petcoke”).
Golden Predator Mining Corp. (TSX-V:GPY) (OTCQX:NTGSF) (the “Company” or “Golden Predator”) today reported results of 43 Grade Control drill holes at the 3 Aces Project in southeast Yukon, including the highest gold assays returned to date from drilling on the project.
Blue Sky Uranium Corp. (TSX-V:BSK) (FSE:MAL2) (OTC:BKUCF), (“Blue Sky” or the “Company”) is pleased to report that additional analytical results from the Phase II reverse circulation (RC) drilling program have expanded the higher-grade uranium mineralized corridor by a further 1 kilometre at the Ivana target on its 100% owned Amarillo Grande uranium-vanadium project, in Rio Negro Province, Argentina. In addition to the lateral expansion, infill drilling results include areas of significant grade-times-thickness (i.e. 15 holes averaging 13 metres @ 522 ppm U3O8), and individual results as high as >1% (10,517 ppm) U3O8. The Company has engaged a team of independent qualified people (Bruce Davis Ph.D., F.AusIMM, of BD Resource Consulting Inc., Susan Lomas P.Geo of Lions Gate Geological Consulting Inc., and Jon Thorson, Ph.D., CPG) to complete a maiden resource estimate, and associated NI 43-101 Technical Report, for the Amarillo Grande project.

Cartier Resources Inc. (TSX-V: ECR) (“Cartier”) is pleased to announce that 4 drill rigs are currently in operation on the Chimo Mine property, located 45 km east of Val-d’Or, to complete 20,000 m of drilling in the coming months.The program is intended to explore the depth and lateral extensions of 23 known gold zones in order to expand their dimensions (VIDÉO 3D).
The Ptarmigan Mine (“Ptarmigan”) was a gold producer in the Yellowknife gold district from 1941-42, in 1983 and from 1985-1997. The main Ptarmigan vein was accessed by a shaft extending to 275 meters depth and mined over 400 meters of strike length. Production from Ptarmigan totaled 364,874 tonnes producing 112,213 ounces of gold (average 9.56 g/t Au recovered). The gold is free milling with recoveries in the 1940’s reported at 97-98%. Gold recovery in the 1985-97 period consisted of gravity and flotation concentration with reported recovery of 94%. When the mine closed in 1997 the vein was still open along strike to the west on claims now owned by TerraX, and open down dip below the mine workings.
