Bear Lake Gold Ltd. Update on MNDMF
(firmenpresse) - LONGUEUIL, QUEBEC -- (Marketwire) -- 08/19/11 -- Bear Lake Gold Ltd. (the "Company" or "Bear Lake") (TSX VENTURE: BLG) received today a letter from the Ontario Ministry of Northern Development, Mines and Forestry ("MNDMF") addressed to five companies, including Bear Lake, indicating that the MNDMF intends to issue an order to file a certified closure plan with respect to the Upper and Lower Kerr mine tailings areas by February 19, 2012. As previously indicated in the Company's continuous disclosure documents, the Company believes that it does not have any liability related to mine hazards that are located on property owned and controlled by others. Bear Lake has denied any responsibility but has cooperated with the MNDMF and has conducted appropriate preventive measures on its own claims. This matter has been ongoing since December 2009 and the Company will vigorously maintain its position. At this time, the Company cannot estimate the potential cost for dealing with this issue.
