RE:
Mostly micro's found in limited sampling done in 2006, but there was one macro!

Some big money riding on these samples, and a lot of geo work behind it.

Snowfield Development Corp. - Micro-diamond results

Trading Symbol: TSX Venture: SNO
Shares Issued: 43,050,109

VANCOUVER, Feb. 6 /CNW/ - Snowfield Development Corp. ("Snowfield") is
pleased to announce that it has received the micro-diamond results from a
composite kimberlite sample taken from its Ticho Project Mudlake Kimberlite
located near Drybones Bay, Great Slave Lake, N.W.T. Approximately 110 kg of
remnant kimberlite core samples taken from some 14 holes drilled into the
Mudlake body were submitted to the Kennecott Canada Exploration Inc. Thunder
Bay Mineral Processing Laboratory at Thunder Bay, Ontario for caustic fusion
processing and micro-diamond recovery. This process resulted in the recovery
of one macro-diamond and four micro-diamonds. The kimberlite core samples were
remnants remaining after the majority of the kimberlitic material had been
previously processed for kimberlitic indicator minerals. The dimensional
measurements of the largest diamond is listed below:

<<

Largest Diamond (mm) Sample Sill-1

An additional 4 micro-diamonds were recovered from Samples Sill-1 and
Sill-2. All results are shown below.

+0.150 1 0

+0.106 1 1

These results demonstrate the presence of diamonds in the Mudlake
kimberlite, however, due to the nature of the sampling, it is not possible to
determine which specific drill holes produced the diamonds. The presence of
one macro-diamond is encouraging and once again demonstrates the need for a
much larger sample. These results further strengthen the company's view that
only a bulk sample from the Mudlake kimberlite will establish whether or not
the body is economic. With this in mind the company is proceeding with its
plans to extract a 500 tonne bulk sample from the Mudlake kimberlite during
the current exploration season.
Drilling on other targets within the project area is currently underway
and results will be announced as they become available.
