Magma Metals Limited: Lake Grace Ground Position Extended
(firmenpresse) - PERTH, WESTERN AUSTRALIA -- (Marketwire) -- 10/05/11 -- Magma Metals Limited (TSX: MMW)(ASX: MMW) ("Magma" or the "Company") is pleased to advise that it has applied for additional tenements and entered into agreements on two tenement groups, Lake Magenta and Pingrup, which are contiguous with the Lake Grace gold project, located 320 km southeast of Perth in Western Australia.
An interpretation of the geology of the project area is in progress based on an analysis of historical exploration records, interpretation of aeromagnetic data and Magma's own field reconnaissance. This analysis has identified large coherent domains containing mafic enclaves, which are believed to be prospective for gold. The Griffins Find, Lake Magenta and Hardies gold prospect areas all occur in these domains (Figure 1).
Magma has extended the area of its potential ground holding in the region based on this interpretation. Following these additions, Magma's interests now cover a strike length of approximately 240 km of the gneiss belt which hosts the Griffins Find gold deposits, an area of approximately 10,500 km2. This area is comparable in size to Ausgold Limited's Boddington South gold project, which is adjacent to the west.
The principal terms of the two agreements are as follows:
Lake Magenta Option:
Pingrup Joint Venture:
The agreements are subject to a number of conditions including execution of formal legal option and joint venture agreements.
The gneiss belt, which is mainly under soil cover in a wheat farming district, has had little modern systematic exploration coverage. While the focus of exploration work will be on the Griffins Find area and other areas of known gold mineralization, systematic regional reconnaissance work is planned to investigate the gold potential of the broader project area, particularly within the domains containing mafic enclaves (Figure 1).
