RESS RELEASE: Canadian Orebodies Inc. Mobilizes Crews to Lithium Rare Metal Property
30.09.10 16:46:32- DJPN
TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Sept. 30, 2010) - Canadian Orebodies Inc. (TSX
VENTURE:CO) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has mobilized crews
to begin work on its Zigzag Lithium/Rare Metals property (the "Property"). The
Property is subject to an option agreement with Ultra Lithium Inc. (TSX
VENTURE:ULI) and the underlying property owners to acquire an 80% legal and
beneficial interest (subject to a 2% NSR retained by the Owners, 50% of which
can be purchased by Orebodies for $1,000,000).
The work program is to consist of detailed geological mapping, grab sampling
across the claims and where possible mechanical stripping which will be
followed up with systematic channel sampling.
Zigzag Property Overview
The Property in total consists of 129 claim units comprising 2,064 hectares,
located approximately 60 km northeast of Armstrong, Ontario. The property is
host to 5 historical lithium and rare metal showings of consequence.
Historical highly anomalous tantalum and cesium values are notably widespread
on the property and indicate a high potential for zoned, complex-type
pegmatites enriched in tantalum and cesium. Complex-type pegmatites are
excellent targets for economic deposits of lithium, tantalum, cesium and
rubidium such as the Tanco pegmatite in Manitoba.
Besides lithium, tantalum could have one of the most considerable economic
benefits on the Zigzag property as historically there have been a significant
amount of samples collected that demonstrate widespread, high grade results.
Breaks (2003) stated that individual analysis from the Tebishogeshik Lens 3
exceeded 80 wt % Ta2O5 and were amongst the highest documented in lithium-rich
pegmatite of Ontario.(i)
(i)(historical in nature and not 43-101 compliant and therefore should not be
relied upon.)
Additionally, Orebodies is currently reviewing several other projects and
opportunities that have come available to the Company. The Company is
continually interested in sourcing projects that can complement its current
portfolio of properties and create shareholder value.

Assay results for Vegan and Niemi South property
The Vegan and Niemi South properties are both located approximately 150 km northeast of Thunder Bay in an area which is host to numerous known Lithium deposits and REE bearing pegmatites including those held by Lithium One Inc. (TSX VENTURE:LI) and TNR Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:TNR). Access was difficult to these properties and the historic deposits were not located in the short time the exploration crew had before snow cover ended the possibility of further surface mapping and sampling. However, 20 grab samples were taken from the properties which yielded anomalous values of Li20 and other rare metals. More work is planned on these properties in the spring which will consist of further mapping and sampling to locate and verify the historic deposits indicated in the Ontario Department of Mines, Geological Report No. 31, Georgia Lake Area, by E.G. Pye, 1965.
All samples were submitted to ALS and analyzed using four acid digestion and ICP-AES and ICP-MS. For more information on assay methodology please visit the ALS Laboratory Group. Website at http://www.alsglobal.com.

NEWS: Orebodies to Acquire 80% Interest in Zigzag Lithium/Rare Metals Property
TORONTO, ONTARIO, Mar 04, 2010 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX News Network) --
Canadian Orebodies Inc. (TSX VENTURE: CO) ("Orebodies") is pleased to announce that it is has entered into an Option Agreement (the "Option") with Ultra Lithium Inc. ("Ultra") and the underlying property owners (the "Owners") to acquire an 80% legal and beneficial interest (subject to a 2% NSR retained by the Owners, 50% of which can be purchased by Orebodies for $1,000,000) in the Zigzag Lithium, Tantalum, Beryllium, Gallium property (the "Property"). The Property in total consists of 129 claim units comprising 2,064 hectares, located approximately 60 km northeast of Armstrong, Ontario.
About the Property:
The Property is tied directly onto Linear Metals Corp. (TSX: LRM) Seymour Lake Lithium/Tantalum/Beryllium property and is in the general area of Orebodies' Falcon and Despard Lithium properties.
This is a key property acquisition for Orebodies that holds great potential in this very prospective lithium/rare metal pegmatite field. The Property significantly adds to Orebodies land position by nearly doubling its interest in the area again and bringing Orebodies total land holdings to over 4,300 hectares.
The property hosts 5 different showings of interest as listed below:
Tebishogeshik-- Consists of sub parallel pegmatite lenses(i)-- Channel cuts across No. 2 lens averaged 1.28 percent Li2O across 32 feet (Hoiles 1958)(i)-- The No. 4 lens has been channel-sampled at intervals throughout a length of 500 feet. According to Hoiles (1958), it averages 1.65 percent Li2O across a mean width of 22 feet(i)-- Breaks (2003) stated that the majority of the tantalum-oxide minerals in the Crescent Lake pegmatite group are manganotantalite. Individual analysis of manganotantalite from Tebishogeshik Lens 3 exceeded 80 weight % Ta2O5 and were amongst the highest documented in lithium-rich pegmatite of Ontario.Dempster East-- Six channel samples were cut across the deposit by Dempster Explorations Limited. These samples indicated an average grade of 1.88 percent Li2O (Hoiles 1958).(i)-- Three samples, cut near the southeast end of the occurrence averaged 1.78% Li20 across a width of 4.1 m.(i)Dempster L28-- Similar mineralogy as Tebishogeshik, contains prismatic spodumene crystals up to 10 cm in length(i)Ketchican Road Beryl Occurance-- muscovite bulk sample revealed anomalous levels of most rare metals; Lithium, Cesium, Tin, Niobium and Tantalum.(ii)-- this beryl occurrence could be part of a larger, zoned, rare-element pegmatite dike swarm.(ii)Bird River Potential No. 1-- Dr. Anderson (1975) stated that geochemical sampling of the host rocks adjacent to the lithium rich pegmatite zones showed a dramatic increase in the trace lithium content.(i) (historical in nature and not 43-101 compliant and therefore should not be relied upon - the grade and tonnage estimates for the deposits was taken from the Ontario Department of Mines, Geological Report No. 55, Crescent Lake Area, by E.G. Pye, 1968).(ii) (historical in nature and not 43-101 compliant and therefore should not be relied upon- the information was taken from Open File Report 6195, Fertile and Peraluminous Granites and Related Rare-Element Mineralization in Pegmatites, North- Central and Northeastern Superior Province, Ontario by F.W. Breaks, J.B. Selway and A.G. Tindle 2006)
In order to earn its interest in the Property, Orebodies is required to:
1. Pay to Ultra $100,000 over a 4 year period.2. Issue to Ultra an aggregate amount of 650,000 common shares of Orebodies over a 4 year period and issue to the Owners an aggregate amount of 150,000 common shares of Orebodies on TSXV approval.3. Fund $350,000 of exploration expenditures on the property over a 4 year period.
This press release has been prepared under the supervision of Mr. Don Hains (P.Geo.)., who is an independent consultant to the Company and a "qualified person" (as such term is defined in National Instrument 43-101). Mr. Hains has verified the technical data disclosed in this press release.
Closing of the transaction remains subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

Orebodies Completes Purchase of 100% Interest in 5 Lithium/Rare Metals Properties and Provides Project Update
All samples are currently being prepared to be sent out for assay, with results expected early in the New Year
TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 12/17/09 --
Canadian Orebodies Inc. (TSX VENTURE: CO) ("Orebodies") is pleased to announce that it is has completed the purchase of 100% legal and beneficial interest (subject to a 2% NSR retained by the vendor, 50% of which can be purchased by Orebodies for $1,000,000) in 5 separate Lithium/Rare Metals properties (the "Properties") with an arm's length third-party vendor. The Properties in total consist of 111 claim units comprising 1,776 hectares, all which are located in Ontario
Project Update:
The previously announced work programs on the Properties which included detailed geological mapping and sampling across all 5 properties, mechanical stripping and systematic channel cuts across the Falcon West zone have now been successfully completed. All samples are currently being prepared to be sent out for assay, with results expected early in the New Year
Orebodies has cut small orientation grids over the showing areas on the Falcon property and have now commenced an orientation Gradiometeric Mag and VLF survey. It is further intended to conduct a resistivity survey over the orientation grids as conditions permit. The intention of the surveys is to determine the ability to trace and locate lithium bearing pegmatites by geophysical techniques for the purpose of distinguishing between pegmatite bearing veins and host rock
In addition, a small orientation down ice grid from the Falcon West was soil sampled to see if a Li bearing dispersal train could be detected from the showing area
More information regarding the Properties and locations is available on Orebodies website: www.canadianorebodies.com
Pursuant to the purchase, Orebodies has acquired 100% interest in the Properties by issuing an aggregate amount of 1,600,000 common shares of Orebodies and issuing 1,600,000 share purchase warrants, each warrant entitling the holder to acquire one common share of Orebodies at an exercise price of $0.15 per share for a period of two years from closing
The common shares of Orebodies issued are subject to a hold period until April 17, 2010

Great job bud..she looks ready~
i spoke to Canadian Ore today.... Guy was pretty tight lipped. said the biggest positive factor for investors was that there will be a steady stream of PR's from now until the EOY... told me that what was in the PR's is all he could tell me as far as valuations and that they were historic. he did also say that they believe they have an extremely good outlook for having economic quantities of REE's on their properties...
Moves on friggin air..should have some interesting PR's soon~
looks like you found another winner spark.
