Business Wire - April 05, 2004 16:30

LAS VEGAS, Apr 5, 2004 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- U.S. Canadian Minerals Inc. (OTCBB: UCAD) today announced that it has purchased the previously announced option with United Carina Resources Corp. (CDNX: UCA), Consolidated Pine Channel Gold Corp. (CDNX: KPG), and CMKM Diamonds Inc. (Pink Sheets: CMKX).

Management is also pleased to announce the intersection of over 500 feet of kimberlitic rock on their mineral claims in conjunction with this option nearby the settlement of Smeaton, Saskatchewan. Operating partner CMKM, in collaboration with their geologist Ralph Newson, have chosen a drilling location close to an area where smaller thicknesses of kimberlite have been identified by prior claim holders. Kimberlitic rock was intersected at a depth of 410 feet and drilling is still in progress.

Definitive classification as kimberlite will require laboratory confirmation and samples are currently being prepared to undergo caustic fusion treatment to assess diamond content. However, given the nearby location of independently verified diamondiferous kimberlite and the large size of kimberlite bodies in the area, U.S. Canadian is very excited by the recent drilling successes. U.S. Canadian Minerals owns 25% of the claim and any future diamond finds. Further drilling is planned to more fully classify the size and morphology of the kimberlitic body and management is eagerly anticipating the results of diamond determination which is expected to be forthcoming within the next few months.

There is no guarantee that further exploration or drilling will produce any economic benefit to the company or the shareholders of the company.
