MANSON CREEK COMMENCES WORK ON VIRGIN ARM GOLD PROJECT

Manson Creek Resources Ltd. is moving field personnel to the Virgin Arm gold project in Newfoundland.

The crew is currently defining prospective areas for the trenching program scheduled for early May. The program will entail up to 1,000 metres of excavated trenches which will be subject to detailed sampling and mapping. The program will also include propertywide prospecting, mapping and soil sampling. All of the contractors and logistical requirements are in place for the program.

The current exploration program will focus on expanding known gold occurrences and identifying new areas of gold mineralization within the large claim block. Detailed geological work will be conducted to better understand the controls on gold mineralization, and this knowledge will help to guide follow-up work that could culminate in proposed diamond drilling.

The Virgin Arm property

The road-accessible Virgin Arm gold property, covering 1,047 hectares of prospective geology, is located 65 kilometres north of Gander, Nfld. The 42 contiguous mineral claims encompass five known gold showings and a regional gold-in-soil/silt sample anomaly.

Gold mineralization, present in outcrop, has been discovered over a three-kilometre-long, northeast-to-southwest-trending structural corridor. Visible gold occurs in several localities with reported historical assays as high as 99.7 and 127 grams per tonne. A compilation of known gold occurrences and anomalous gold-in-soil/silt anomalies shows mineralization is present over five kilometres along this structural trend. The property has seen limited exploration with historical work focused on sampling the known mineralized outcrops.

Corporate

Manson Creek has returned the CR project back to the vendor as the company continues to focus on gold-based assets.
