New press release from DMXP
LEWISBURG, KY -- (MARKET WIRE) -- August 11, 2006 -- Delta Mining and Exploration Inc. (PINKSHEETS: DMXP) is pleased to announce that Apex Geoscience will commence Phase 2 exploration this coming Monday, August 14, 2006 on Delta's Grassrange District Properties in Montana.
As previously mentioned in a news release dated July 14, the program will consist of detailed mapping and collection of samples for diamond indicator mineral analysis and will focus on the Homestead and Three Buttes kimberlite bodies and the Teigen Butte and Rattlesnake Butte targets, believed to be lamprophyres. Kimberlites, and to a lesser extent lamprophyres, are known to host the majority of the world's known diamond deposits.
After completion of the program and the analysis of results, which will be made public, a follow-up field campaign expected to consist of trenching with collection of large weight samples for micro-diamond analysis will be undertaken.
