Diamonds / Cleft
Description
CONSOLIDATED GOLDWIN VENTURES INC.'s (CGW TSX-V) two additional
properties were acquired due to their proximity to its other diamond
exploration properties in the Drybones Bay area of Great Slave
Lake in the Northwest Territories, Canada. The Drybones Bay Kimberlite
which is currently being explored by New Shoshoni Ventures Inc.
is the largest untested diamondiferous kimberlite in this region
of the Slave craton, host to Canada's most significant diamond
mining operations.
CGW plans to complete ground geophysics on its two properties
to the east of Drybones Bay in the spring of 2003.
The properties have discreet topographical features associated
with magnetic anomalies on a large government scale aeromagnetic
survey.
These two properties are located approximately 12 kilometres
to the east (ZZL) and 4 kilometres to the north (Cleft) of the
Drybones Bay diamondiferrous kimberlite and Snowfield Development
Corp.'s newly announced discovery of kimberlite The areas have
never been tested by diamond drilling.
The Drybones Bay area is the focus of exploration programs currently
being mobilized by New Shoshoni Ventures Inc. and Snowfield Development
Corp. The Drybones Bay Kimberlite is the largest kimberlite discovered
to date on the Slave Craton and was determined by exploration
in the 1990's to be diamond bearing. New Shoshoni is drilling
several additional targets that have similar geophysical signatures
to this known kimberlite. Snowfield is currently drilling a geophysical
target with anomalous indicator minerals down ice from it.
