Kodiak (TSX.V: KXL) Expands Thick Zone of Gold Mineralization at Milestone With New Drilling

Vancouver, British Columbia - March 5, 2010 - Kodiak Exploration Ltd. (TSX.V: KXL) is pleased to announce that the company continues to intercept thick zones of potentially bulk-minable gold mineralization at its Milestone Property at the eastern end of the Beardmore-Geraldton gold camp. Winter drilling by Kodiak has intercepted significant gold mineralization in every drill hole, expanding the size of the gold mineralized system first reported by Kodiak in November, 2009 (News release dated 26 November, 2009).

Kodiak has completed six diamond drill holes totaling 2272 metres this winter at Milestone. Highlights include drill hole MS10-05 which cut 34.0 metres grading 0.98 gpt gold; drill hole MS10-06 which cut 37.2 metres grading 0.54 gpt gold and drill hole MS10-08 which cut 12.1 metres grading 2.05 gpt gold. MS10-08 also intercepted locally higher grade gold mineralization (> 7 gpt gold) indicating the potential for high grade style gold mineralization at Milestone. These drill holes are located down dip and on strike with previously reported drill holes MS09-02 which cut 41.2 metres grading 0.98 gpt gold and 30.2 metres grading 0.29 gpt gold, MS09-03 which cut 38.4 metres grading 0.64 gpt gold and drill hole MS09-04 which intercepted 25.0 metres grading 0.90 gpt gold. Drilling is ongoing and will continue to systematically explore the extents of this large gold system. A complete assay table and plan map of the current drilling are shown below.


Gold mineralization at Milestone has the width, strike length and depth extent to define a large tonnage of potentially open pit exploitable gold mineralization. The system remains open along strike; geophysical data (IP and magnetics) indicates that the host structure continues in both directions for several thousand metres. At this time, the ultimate size of the system is unknown. This bulk tonnage style of gold mineralization has been proven economic by numerous mining companies throughout Canada and is an extremely attractive target for Kodiak.



Hercules and West Geraldton Update: The first phase of 2010 diamond drilling at West Geraldton has been completed and samples submitted for gold analyses. The drill rig has been moved to the Hercules project and will resume exploration drilling on the Bobby Ore, Golden Mile and other veins at Hercules. At this time, the ice thickness is insufficient to support drilling equipment on Golden Pond and we will pursue other options for drilling the Golden Pond target area, including barge drilling. The resource estimate for the Hercules project is on schedule and will be completed in the first quarter of 2010.



The geological information for the Beardmore-Geraldton regional exploration project has been reviewed and approved by Darren Lindsay, Kodiak's Vice President-Exploration, who is a qualified person under the definitions established by National Instrument 43-101.



Maps, photographs, detailed geological reports and additional information may be viewed on the Kodiak website at www.kodiakexp.com



Kodiak QA/QC procedures are as follows: Kodiak channel samples are 5 cm wide cut perpendicular to the strike of the vein and/or shear zone from mapped alteration in the footwall continuously through the vein and/or shear zone and into mapped alteration in the hanging wall. Channels are cut with a motorized circular saw to a depth of 20 cm and removed with a hammer.



Channel sample spacing is nominally every 20m along strike, dependent on outcrop size and geometry. Sample intervals are selected according to geologic contacts and visible mineralization, placed into a sample bag, and shipped to the assay lab for quantitative analysis of select elements.



Kodiak drill cores are split down the center with a typical table feed circular rock saw. Sample intervals are selected according to geologic contacts, visible mineralization, and alteration, placed into sample bags and shipped to the assay lab where they are quantitatively analyzed for select elements. Drill cores are boxed, covered, and sealed at the drill rig and moved to the Kodiak logging and sample preparation facilities by Kodiak personnel. Kodiak angle core holes are directed perpendicular to the mapped dip of the vein therefore reported drill hole intercepts approximate true thickness of the vein. All Kodiak samples are currently being assayed by Activation Laboratories Ltd., Ancaster, ON L9G 4V5 and TSL Laboratories Inc., Saskatoon, SK S7K 6A4. Blank and standard samples are routinely submitted with all sample batches sent to the lab for assay. Screened metallic assays are routinely run on all anomalous gold results as a check on nugget effects. Samples are routinely sent to other labs for additional checks.

Kodiak (TSX.V:KXL) Grants Option on Roy Property / Drilling Continues at Athabasca Basin Project

Kodiak (TSX.V:KXL) Grants Option on Roy Property / Drilling Continues at Athabasca Basin Project


Vancouver, British Columbia - March 4, 2010 - Kodiak Exploration Limited (TSX.V:KXL) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an option agreement dated February 25, 2010 with Merrygold Investments Ltd. (\"Merrygold\") allowing Merrygold to earn up to a 70% interest in Kodiak's \"Roy\" gold prospect, located in Roy Township, Québec, Canada, by incurring a total of $5,500,000 in exploration expenses.

The Roy property agreement is part of the Company's plan to farm out non-core properties and focus on its core properties. Merrygold may earn an initial 51% interest in the property by making cumulative exploration and development expenditures of $2,000,000 by the third anniversary of the agreement, and may earn a further 19% interest in the property by making further cumulative expenditures of $2,500,000 by the fifth anniversary of the agreement. Upon Merrygold earning a 70% interest in the property, the project will continue as a joint venture. If at any time either party\'s interest in the joint venture is reduced to below 10%, it will be deemed to have conveyed its interest to the other party in consideration of the right to receive a one percent (1%) net smelter returns royalty, which may be acquired at any time by the other party for a payment of $1,000,000.

Kodiak is also pleased to announce satisfaction of the second anniversary option payment under its January, 2008 option agreement on the West Millennium Property, located in Saskatchewan's Athabasca Basin, by issuance of 585,480 shares. Those shares will be subject to a four month hold period expiring on July 3, 2010. The Company's filing in respect of the subject option payment has been accepted by the TSX Venture Exchange. Results of the 2009 exploration program on the West Millennium project were set out in the Company's May 11, 2009 news release. The Company is currently engaged in a six hole, 4,500 metre drill program on that property and expects to be in a position to report on the results of that program in the near future.

Kodiak also reports that Kirrin Resources Inc. has surrendered its option to earn up to a 70% interest in Kodiak's Otish Basin uranium prospects located in Québec, Canada. Kodiak intends to seek another company to option the Otish Basin properties, as the primary focus of the Company's uranium division is in the Athabasca Basin.

Geological information contained in this news release has been reviewed and approved by Darren Lindsay, Kodiak's Vice-President-Exploration, who is a qualified person under the definitions established by National Instrument 43-101.

Kodiak is a mineral exploration company with properties located in Canada.

Rye Patch Gold Corp. (OTC:RPMGF; TSX.V:RPM) Completes Work Commitment for Wilco Earn In- one year early.

Rye Patch Gold Corp. (OTC:RPMGF; TSX.V:RPM) Completes Work Commitment for Wilco Earn In- one year early.


VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA - March 4, 2010 (Investorideas.com Mining Stocks Newswire) - Rye Patch Gold Corp (TSX-V:RPM)(OTC.BB:RPMGF) ("Rye Patch Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has completed the work commitment obligations to earn a 100% interest in the Wilco project by spending over US$3 million at the project to date. This milestone was achieved one year early.


The 5 Stocks to Own in 2010 -- Free Report!"2010 has started off with Rye Patch making great strides to reach its resource goals in Nevada and add value to its shareholders. The signing of the Definitive Agreement on the REN project and now completing the earn-in at Wilco shows the company is positioned to deliver on its resource goals in Nevada. In addition, the Company anticipates completing a National Instrument 43-101 compliant resource estimate on the Lincoln Hill property this spring. When completed, the estimate will be the Company's fourth resource in Nevada. With gold production declining world wide, Rye Patch is uniquely positioned with gold and silver resources in Nevada to capitalize on gold price and resource demand," stated William C. (Bill) Howald, CEO and President


Rye Patch Gold's interest in the Wilco project is subject to the back-in rights of a subsidiary of Newmont Mining Corporation ("Newmont"). If Rye Patch Gold completes a positive feasibility study on the Wilco project, Newmont will then have 120 days to exercise its back-in right to earn a 60% interest in the Wilco project which, if exercised, requires Newmont to contribute expenditures totalling US$15 million on the project prior to the 8th anniversary of exercising the back-in right. Newmont may also earn an additional 10% interest in the project (for a total 70% interest) by expending an additional US$5 million (for a total of US$20 million) on the property. If Newmont declines to exercise its back-in rights, or fails to exercise such rights within the 120-day time period, or fails to complete the necessary expenditures, Rye Patch Gold may complete the acquisition of the Wilco project by making a one-time payment to Newmont of US$2 million in cash (or half in cash and the remainder in Rye Patch Gold common shares, at Rye Patch Gold's sole discretion), failing which the project reverts to Newmont. Thereafter, Newmont's sole interest in the Wilco project will be a sliding scale 2% to 5% net smelter returns royalty (NSR) in respect of all gold, silver and platinum group metals production, as determined based on the prevailing gold price, and a 3.5% NSR in respect of production from all other minerals.



Going forward, the next steps for the Wilco project will entail additional metallurgical testing and preparation work for a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA). Also, the Company is designing a follow-up drilling campaign for the high-grade gold zone encountered in the North Basin.



About Rye Patch Gold
Rye Patch Gold Corp. is a Tier 1, Nevada-focused and discovery-driven company seeking to build a sizeable inventory of gold and silver resource assets in the mining friendly state of Nevada, USA. The Company's seasoned management team is engaged in acquisition, exploration and development of quality resource-based gold and silver projects.

Firestone Ventures (FV:TSX-V;F5V:FSE) Announces Results from Quetzal Zinc-Lead-Silver Project

Firestone Ventures (FV:TSX-V;F5V:FSE) Announces Results from Quetzal Zinc-Lead-Silver Project

February 1, 2010 - Firestone Ventures Inc. (FV:TSX-V;F5V:FSE) is pleased to announce high-grade zinc, lead and silver results from 120 rock samples collected on the Company’s “Quetzal” property located 100 kilometres northeast of Guatemala City, Guatemala. Grab rock samples from outcrops and historic mine dumps contained up to 32% zinc, 2.8% lead and 26 ppm silver. Six continuous horizontal chip samples were collected from a historic mine tunnel and stope. The chip samples ranged from 1.7 to 2.7 metres over 14.2 metres of tunnel walls and averaged 18.5% zinc, 2.4% lead and 57 ppm silver over a vertical mineralized zone varying in true width from 2 to 5 metres.

“Our goal for 2010 is to find more zinc. These excellent results from one of our new properties represent the first modern exploration work covering a historic zinc-lead-silver mining district in central Guatemala. The Quetzal property produced a small amount of zinc and lead in the 1960s but has been dormant since then.” says Lori Walton, President of Firestone Ventures Inc.

During November and December field crews conducted geological mapping, surface and underground rock sampling and a soil survey in two areas of interest on the Quetzal property.

The first area of interest measures 300 x 400 metres and comprises a group of eight short tunnels and one shaft. Five surface rock samples in this area contained 0.19% to 19.8% zinc, 0.14% to 2.3% lead and <0.1 to 73 ppm silver. Firestone geologists were able to map and sample in six of the tunnels and in the one shaft with an adjacent stope.

Shaft and Stope #5 Results
The shaft descended eight metres to a stope which extended 14 metres north exposing a north-trending vertical zone of replacement-type zinc-lead-silver mineralization. The mineralization, consisting mainly of smithsonite (zinc carbonate), iron oxides and galena varied in true width from 2 to 5 metres. Six continuous horizontal chip samples ranging from 1.7 to 2.7 metres were collected over 14.2 metres of tunnel walls and averaged 18.5% zinc, 2.4% lead and 57 ppm silver. Individual chip sample values ranged from 12% to 22% zinc, 2.4% to 2.5% lead and 14.2 to 110 ppm silver.

Tunnels 11 and 12 Results
A mineralized zone 2 to 3 metres wide is exposed near the portal to the tunnels. The tunnels are caved 2 metres from the portal entrance. A one metre chip sample across the mineralized zone contained 15.3% zinc, 2.0% lead and 47.7 ppm silver. A second chip sample returned 9.7% zinc, 1.5% lead and 2.4 ppm silver across 2 metres. One grab rock sample from dump material contained 32% zinc, 2.8% lead and 26 ppm silver.

Tunnel #6 Results
Ten chip samples were collected from a breccia and stockwork zone 6 to 8 metres in true width. Six chip samples contained greater than 1.0% zinc including two chip samples containing greater than 3.0% zinc. A chip sample across 1.4 metres contained 5.8% zinc, 0.7% lead and 0.8 ppm silver. A 2.1 metre chip sample contained 3.21% zinc, 0.3% lead and 1.1 ppm silver. A grab sample from an ore pile contained 24% zinc, 2.4% lead and 32 ppm silver.

The second area of interest on the Quetzal property is located 400 metres to the north. Three rock grab samples from outcrops and dumps in the second area of interest contained 20.7% to 31.4% zinc, 1.7% to 2.4% lead, and 4 to 67 ppm silver. None of the old workings in this area are accessible, but surface alteration indicates a north-south trending zone of zinc-lead mineralization about 20 metres wide.

The geological setting (Permian dolomite and limestone), style and grade of the mineralization at the Quetzal property are similar to the mineralization at Firestone’s Torlon Hill zinc-lead-silver deposit in western Guatemala.

Results from an extensive soil geochemical grid on the Quetzal property are being compiled and drill targets will be identified in anticipation of a drilling program to establish the horizontal and vertical extent and grade of the zinc-lead-silver mineralization.

Rock samples were sent to the BSI Inspectorate facility in Guatemala City for preparation and then sent by courier to the International Plasma Labs Ltd. facility in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada for analysis using 30 element ICP and 30g FA/AAS. The road-accessible Quetzal property (380 hectares) is 100% owned by Firestone subject to a 2% NSR.

Linear Gold Commences Drilling at Goldfields Project

Linear Gold Commences Drilling at Goldfields Project


HALIFAX, NOVA SCOTIA, January 27, 2010: Linear Gold Corp. (TSX: LRR) (“Linear”) is pleased to announce that drilling has commenced at its Goldfields Mine Development Project, host to Linear’s 100% owned Box and Athona Gold Deposits. The Goldfields Project includes over 25,000 hectares of contiguous property holdings located within a prolific gold-bearing region of Saskatchewan, Canada. The Box and Athona Gold Deposits are being developed as open pit operations with combined Proven and Probable gold reserves of 1,030,400 ounces.
Linear’s planned 2010 drill program will focus on the following objectives:
Drilling will test for additional gold mineralization below the bottom of the proposed Box Mine open- pit. The planned 3000 metre Box Deposit drill program will consist of between 10 to 15 drill holes, initially focusing on areas where potential ore-grade results have been returned from limited drilling completed and reported by GLR Resources Inc. during 2007, including:
Hole B07-292, which returned 2.13 grams per tonne of gold over an estimated true width of 47.81 metres, including 8.35 grams per tonne of gold over 8.60 metres; and
Hole B07-294, which returned 6.32 grams per tonne of gold over an estimated true width of 16.72 metres, including 11.47 grams per tonne of gold over 8.80 metres.
Following the completion of the initial 3000 metre drill program and the return of positive results, a follow-up infill drill program will be designed to incorporate the additional mineralization in to an updated Box Deposit gold resource estimate.
Drilling will follow-up and test geophysical anomalies identified within a planned 840 hectare sector of the Goldfields Project which will be surveyed by the advanced Titan 24 geophysical system. The Induced Polarization (IP) and Resistivity (DCIP) survey, which will be completed in February 2010, has been designed to identify anomalies with the potential to host mineralized systems near the Box and Athona Gold Deposits including the two kilometre area between the deposits. The Titan geophysical system is designed to acquire high-resolution results to depths of approximately 700 metres, depths that are unachievable with conventional geophysics or airborne geophysics. Through processing, inversion and interpretation of results, information can be obtained on conductive mineralization, disseminated mineralization, alteration, structure and geology resulting in highly prospective drill targets.
Drilling will be completed to test the following highly prospective targets:
The down-dip and along strike gold mineralization outside of the proposed design of the Athona Deposit open-pit; and
historic gold occurrences on the property including:
The Golden Pond occurrence, located approximately three kilometres northeast of the Box Deposit, where GLR Resources intersected 5.07 grams per tonne over 15 metres and16.57 grams per tonne over13.6 metres.
Howard Bird, Linear’s Vice President of Exploration, stated: “I am pleased that the Goldfield’s 2010 exploration program has commenced and look forward to the drill results which are expected to add additional ounces to the gold resource at the Box Deposit. Furthermore, the interpretation of three-dimensional model results from the IP geophysical program is expected to identify exciting target anomalies where drill testing may result in the discovery of large-scale bulk-tonnage gold occurrences similar to the Box and Athona Deposits, and/or high-grade gold vein occurrences. Exciting upside potential also exists in the Athona Deposit exploration drill program, as well as the testing of historic gold occurrences.”
The Goldfields project area hosts a wide variety of mineralization and historical underground development, including the Box Mine, which produced as an underground gold mining operation from 1939 to 1942. Twelve additional gold occurrences have been documented on the property. All of the known gold deposits and occurrences are exposed at surface, most of which were discovered through surface prospecting during the 1930’s. The Box and the Athona Deposits, the two known deposits on the property, are located two kilometres apart and will utilize a central processing mill facility. The Box and Athona Deposits are both large multi-million tonne open pit deposits, located on the western flank and near the nose of the Goldfields syncline. Both deposits have potential for increased open pit gold resources and there is good potential for higher grade gold mineralization, which may be suitable for underground mining methods below the proposed open pits.
The Goldfields project area is located 25 kilometres from Uranium City, Saskatchewan, and is serviced by excellent local infrastructure, including an airport, hydro-electric power, telecommunications, a good road system, a field office, a core shack and living quarters with kitchen facilities for the exploration team.

Mining Stocks News - Teck (TSX: TCK.A and TCK.B, NYSE: TCK) Comments on Red Dog Permit Appeal

Teck (TSX: TCK.A and TCK.B, NYSE: TCK) Comments on Red Dog Permit Appeal

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--- Jan. 15, 2010 - Teck Resources Limited (TSX: TCK.A and TCK.B, NYSE: TCK) commented on an appeal filed today against the State of Alaska's certification of a water discharge permit recently issued to Teck Alaska's Red Dog Mine by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA").


Two nonprofit law firms joined with local tribal and environmental organizations to file a request for an adjudicatory hearing with the State of Alaska of their appeal of the State's certification of the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit (the mine's main water discharge permit). The appeal asserts that certain permit provisions do not comply with the Clean Water Act. If successful, the appeal could result in revisions to the permit conditions or revocation of the permit. The organizations did not request that the permit be stayed, allowing the certification to remain in effect during adjudication of this specific appeal.
The certification was issued on December 15, 2009, when, in accordance with Section 401 of the Clean Water Act, the State of Alaska certified that the renewed NPDES permit would comply with all applicable State water quality regulations.
"The State and Federal agencies have just completed a very thorough review of water quality issues associated with Red Dog," said Jim Kulas, Manager, Environmental and Public Affairs for Teck. "Based on years of data documenting a healthy downstream environment, in the agencies' judgment, the permit will be fully protective of human health and the environment. Teck believes that the regulatory process has been robust and appropriate."


The NPDES permit was issued by the EPA on January 8, 2010. The appeal period for the NPDES permit expires on February 16, 2010.


The Army Corps of Engineers permit for the Aqqaluk Deposit, the next ore body to be mined at Red Dog, is the only outstanding agency authorization for the next phase of mining at Red Dog. This permit is undergoing final agency review but has not yet been issued. There is no specific period established for an appeal of this permit.
Other state and local permits required for development of Aqqaluk were received in December. The appeal period for those permits has expired without appeal. As previously noted, development of the Aqqaluk Deposit at Red Dog could be delayed as a result of delays in permit issuance or appeals of permits issued. Any delay extending beyond the first quarter of 2010 will likely result in a reduction or interruption of Red Dog production.
Teck and its partner, indigenous landowner NANA Regional Corporation, Inc., continue to communicate with all stakeholders in an effort to respond to concerns raised and to mitigate the risk of an interruption to the Red Dog Operation.
"We are looking forward to completion of this process so that Red Dog can acquire the permits necessary to develop the Aqqaluk Deposit," said Rosie Barr, Resources Manager, NANA Regional Corporation, Inc. "It is my hope that the permitting process stays on schedule so that the essential economic, cultural and social benefits that are provided by the mine can continue. NANA is committed to working with the EPA and our partners at Teck to complete this process and to keep Red Dog operating for our people and the residents of Alaska for another 20 years."
Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and forward-looking information as defined in the Securities Act (Ontario). Forward-looking statements and information include statements regarding Teck's expectations regarding the potential impact of permitting delays on future production from the Red Dog mine. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Teck to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.
Factors that may cause actual results to vary include, but are not limited to, potential appeals of regulatory actions, changes in regulations, court decisions, and operational mining risks. Certain of these risks are described in more detail in the annual information form of Teck and in its public filings with Canadian securities administrators and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Teck does not assume the obligation to revise or update these forward-looking statements after the date of this document or to revise them to reflect the occurrence of future unanticipated events, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.
