Diamonds North Identifies Prospective Land in Manitoba
The Manitoba Highlands project comprises eight mineral exploration licenses in total. Five of these licenses were granted directly to Diamonds North through the license application process and a 100% interest in three additional licenses were acquired from a Manitoba based private company, Indicator Explorations Ltd. Under the terms of the agreement, Indicator Explorations receives a cash payment of $10,000 and, subject to regulatory approval, will be issued 20,000 common shares. In addition, Indicator Explorations will receive cash payments totaling $530,000, staged over a four year period assuming Diamonds North continues with the project. The annual payments are as follows: 2005 - $40,000, 2006 - $80,000, 2007 -- $160,000, and 2008 -- $250,000. A 1% royalty on any production from the property will be payable to Indicator Explorations.
Diamonds North plans an comprehensive indicator mineral sampling program in 2004.
Diamonds North is a dynamic successful exploration team focused on strategically advancing diamond opportunities and is determined to discover Canada's next diamond mine.
