Investorideas.com - Lithium Stocks; NORTH ARROW (TSX-V: NAR) Provides Update on Northern Diamond Projects and Announces Intention of Financing
Vancouver, British Columbia CANADA - July 16, 2010 (Investorideas.com Mining stocks Newswire) North Arrow Minerals Inc. (NAR: TSXV) is pleased to provide an update on its Lac de Gras diamond exploration project. The project is located within the prolific Lac de Gras diamondiferous kimberlite field in Canada's Northwest Territories and directly adjoins the mineral leases that host the Diavik diamond mine, located only 10 km to the north. The Ekati diamond mine is located within 40 km to the northwest. The kimberlites of the Diavik and Ekati diamond mines are among the richest diamond deposits in the world.
A legal survey of 32 claims totaling 80,420.5 acres is underway that will take the claims to mining lease status. As well a ground investigation of 70 priority kimberlite targets that have been identified from high resolution airborne geophysical data is being carried out. The targets were selected using a proprietary processing technique developed by Dr. Chris Jennings and that has a proven track record of diamondiferous kimberlite discovery in the Lac de Gras kimberlite field. The ground investigation will rank targets for follow up ground magnetic and electromagnetic geophysical surveys planned for early August.
North Arrow's application for a land use permit to allow diamond drilling at the Lac de Gras project was deemed complete by the Mackenzie Valley Land and Water Board on July 8th. Permit issuance is expected within 42 days of the acceptance date. If the permit is issued at this time, it would allow for an early September, 1500 metre diamond drilling program of approximately ten to twelve targets prioritized by the August ground geophysical program.
Ground geophysical surveys are also planned for August on the Company's diamondiferous Hammer pipe located in the Coronation area, NU. The property is owned jointly by Stornoway Diamond Corporation (75%) and North Arrow (25%). This survey will help to define the size and shape of the kimberlite, which is poorly exposed. Drilling permits are already in place for this property.
North Arrow proposes to raise up to $360,000 by way of a non-brokered private placement of 2,000,000 flow-through units (the "FT Units") at a price of $0.18 per FT unit. Each FT unit will consist of one flow-through common share of the Company and one half of one non-flow-through share purchase warrant. Each full warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one additional common share of the Company for a period one year from the closing date at a price of $0.25. A finder's fee may be payable in cash, common shares and/or warrants to acquire common shares to accredited arm's length parties in respect of sales made to purchasers referred to North Arrow by finders. The private placement and the finder's fee, including any common shares or finder's warrants issued as part of the finder's fee, are subject to certain conditions, including regulatory acceptance. All securities issued as part of this private placement are subject to a four month hold period. Insiders of North Arrow will participate in this financing, and will do so on the same terms as the arm's length subscribers.
The proceeds from the financing will be used primarily to advance the Lac de Gras diamond project. North Arrow's exploration programs are conducted under the supervision of Gordon Clarke, P.Geol (NT&NU), Vice President, Exploration for North Arrow and a qualified person under NI 43-101.

Lithium Stocks; NORTH ARROW (TSX-V: NAR) REPORTS 1.4% Li2O OVER 11.0 m FROM BEAVERDAM PROJECT, NORTH CAROLINA
July 15, 2010 (Investorideas.com Mining stocks Newswire) North Arrow Minerals Inc. (NAR: TSXV) is pleased to provide an update on its recent drilling program at its wholly owned Beaverdam lithium project. The Beaverdam project is located in the Tin-Spodumene Belt of North Carolina, historically the most important lithium producing region in the world. This area, located just 45 minutes west of Charlotte, remains the centre of lithium processing and research and development activities in the United States, including FMC Lithium's Center for Lithium Energy and Advanced Research (CLEAR), which is at the forefront of American development of rechargeable lithium ion batteries for electric vehicles. FMC Lithium's facilities are located just 11 km south of the Beaverdam project.

A total of seven drill holes (1,310 m) were completed during May and June as part of a program designed to confirm the presence of spodumene pegmatites at depth in the eastern and central portions of the property.
Drill holes 10-BD-13 through 10-BD-15 were drilled along a 500 m strike length of the eastern pegmatite trend. All holes were drilled at an angle of -45 degrees and each encountered between 4 and 6 mineralized pegmatites exceeding 2 m in width with highlight intervals including 1.14% Li2O over 9.95 m starting at 116.9 m in 10-BD-13 and 1.09% Li2O over 11.3 m starting at 193.25 m in 10-BD-14.
Drill holes 10-BD-16 through 10-BD-18 tested the central pegmatite trend along the same east-west section. Each hole was drilled at an angle of -45 degrees and encountered between six and eight pegmatite dykes exceeding 2 metres in width. Highlight intervals include 10-BD-17 which encountered 1.43% Li2O over 10.97 m starting at 63.1 m, including 2.74% Li2O over 1.9 m starting at 72.1 m.
The final hole of the program (10-BD-19) tested a well exposed pegmatite in the central part of the property but failed to hit the target at depth. It is possible the pegmatite mapped at surface is faulted off or dipping in the opposite direction. Further drilling is required.
The current drilling program has confirmed the presence of numerous spodumene pegmatites within the Beaverdam property. Additional drilling is required to define the along strike and down dip continuity of the pegmatite trends identified within the property. Drilling results returned to date continue to highlight the project's potential for discovery of an American domestic lithium source.
North Arrow will shortly be reporting on this summer's work on our LDG diamond property adjoining the Rio Tinto Diavik Mine, NT. This work is in preparation for a planned drilling program scheduled for September 2010.
North Arrow's exploration programs are conducted under the supervision of Gordon Clarke, P.Geol (NT&NU), Vice President, Exploration for North Arrow and a qualified person under NI 43-101. Samples were analyzed at Acme Analytical Laboratories Ltd's, Vancouver, British Columbia, Lab. Each sample was crushed and a 250 g split collected. The crushed split was pulverized to 200 mesh, split and a 2.5 gram sample collected. The sample was subjected to a sodium peroxide fusion digestion and analysis for Lithium using a combination of inductively coupled plasma (ICP) emission spectrometry. Standard and blank samples were regularly inserted into the sample stream by the Company's field personnel.

(Investorideas.com Mining stocks newswire) Gold prices remained above the $1210 level overnight but the metal was as yet unable to add significant amounts to Tuesday's Portuguese downgrade-induced gains as rising overseas equities markets and a rebound in the euro capped advances. Indian buyers remained on the sidelines as shopkeepers reported no changes in pending orders for bullion purchases from would-be buyers under the $1190 value zone- the very price neighborhood from which the yellow metal rebounded recently. Should assaults on the $1220-$1235 region fail to be successful, such buyers may yet see their orders filled.
On the market and economic fronts, the euro eked out further gains following yesterday's early dip and rose to above 1.27 against the US dollar this morning. The latter remained largely static at lower levels and was last seen at the 83.50 level on the trade-weighted index. Crude oil also remained stalled and showed modest declines towards the $77 per barrel mark after reports revealed a gain in US inventory levels.
Earnings reports remain at the centre of this week's equity markets' focus and a second bellwether firm –Intel- announced solid results. Market players now await US retail sales data and the release of the last Fed meeting's minutes. Less than encouraging news continues to come in from the real estate sector in the US however; mortgage applications to purchase new homes fell to a fourteen-year low as the end of the home-buyer tax credit incentive took its toll. The majority of applicants for loans were people seeking to refinance instead.
Industrial output in the eurozone continued to show gains-albeit lower than expected ones- with the latest report indicating a 9.4% rise in the year-on-year figures for the month of May. Germany remains the look-to country in the 16-nation economic zone and it is seen as the core of growth as well as the patron saint of the recently beleaguered common currency. In fact, the country has every incentive to help keep the euro alive as it continues to benefit from its exports to the region while helping keep domestic unemployment and near two-decade lows.
Pundits calling for the demise of the euro –now that the single currency has actually gained 6.6% against the greenback during just the past month- have an amount of egg on their respective faces just as large as that which was present when the US dollar failed to succumb and be buried late last year. In other 'too-soon-to-call-this-one-dead' news, banking giant UBS this morning backed away completely from its recommendation to short the British pound.
Spot precious metals dealings opened the midweek session with growing losses following a stable overnight period, as the Tuesday recovery rally appeared to lose steam on waning safe-haven demand. Fear has been slowly but surely leaking out of the gold market since the metal reached an all-time pinnacle last month. Spot gold started the day with a $4.50 drop and was quoted at $1206.80 per ounce. Silver fell 14 cents to open at $18.11 the ounce.
Meanwhile, platinum and palladium only showed minor price negative trends as well, with the former shedding $6.00 to $1519.00 and the latter slipping $1.00 to the $463.00 level. Rhodium remained at $2380 after having shed $30 in the previous trading session. IB Times reports that the surplus in the palladium market is set to shrink by 62 percent in the current year (to 217,000 ounces), while platinum's is likely to increase a bit further. At the end of the [trading] day, the recent trading ranges remain in place for the complex –especially gold- as price supporters and profit-takers duke it out each time gold reaches for either extreme of the charts (near $1185 and/or near $1220).
In 'signs of the times' news, Bloomberg reports that the common man is donning the rugged outdoor gear last seen during the Klondike gold stampede and is heading for "them thar' hills" in search of riches. While shovels and picks are still available at your neighborhood Home Depot, the rush to dig gold out is as fevered as the shrill talking suits on financial channels calling for a moon landing in gold prices. Membership in the Gold Prospectors Association of America has exploded with a 93% gain in 2008. That's some 62,000 diggers, folks. Even if they only find less than an average of $50 per day of hard work out there. Well, at least there's fresh air and a fresh tan to enjoy while standing in freezing river waters all day.
Comparisons with the Internet mania of the late 90's and/or the real estate frenzy of not too many months ago are inevitable. Searches for 'mining claims' on eBay yield results that offer ones selling as high as $50K. Of course, one can buy a claim even for a buck – even those come complete with keywords such as 'secret location' or 'unexplored treasure trove.' Think we'll stick with selling shovels…after all, with nearly 24,000 claims being on file with the California BLM office alone, there should be plenty of demand. The new 49ers are not down at Candlestick Park. They're up in Yreka.
Unfortunately, there is also another, much darker side to the New Gold Rush. Not everyone is content to swirl mud in a large pan in the Sierra Nevadas. Even that hobby is claimed to have completely upset the ecosystem that river salmon live in that picturesque region. Let's take Colombia, for example. It has recently acquired (according to the UN) the dubious distinction of having become the planet's number on mercury polluter. Several of the country's regions have reported mercury levels some 1000 times higher than what is deemed acceptable by the WHO.
Nearly 50 tonnes of mercury are estimated as being released in just five of the largest gold-mining towns in the country on an annual basis. The cost? How about one Colombian town –Remedios- where at least one kidney transplant per month is the price being paid for coming in contact with mercury vapor? Not to mention memory loss, ADD, speech impediments, and severe chronic head ailments. More than 40 firms are known to be digging for gold in the country and the production of the yellow metal is forecast to boom to nearly 100 tonnes per annum soon.
Peter L. Bernstein, the author of "The Power of Gold" once said: "It's never been clear if we have gold or if gold has us."
One of these days, if you are really curious as to what the real price of gold is, go visit the National Geographic website. At http://ngg.nationalgeographic.com/2009/01 you will find an expose on just that topic. Hint: it is not a dollar figure.
"No Blood Diamonds" is a slogan for the times. Perhaps "No Dirty Gold" should have an equal billing, five years after the establishment of the organization bearing the same name. After all, how many gold buyers are aware that a single wedding ring's production entails the generation of 20 tonnes (that's 44,000 lbs.) of waste?

While shovels and picks are still available at your neighborhood Home Depot, the rush to dig gold out is as fevered as the shrill talking suits on financial channels calling for a moon landing in gold prices. Membership in the Gold Prospectors Association of America has exploded with a 93% gain in 2008. That's some 62,000 diggers, folks. Even if they only find less than an average of $50 per day of hard work out there. Well, at least there's fresh air and a fresh tan to enjoy while standing in freezing river waters all day.
Comparisons with the Internet mania of the late 90's and/or the real estate frenzy of not too many months ago are inevitable. Searches for 'mining claims' on eBay yield results that offer ones selling as high as $50K. Of course, one can buy a claim even for a buck – even those come complete with keywords such as 'secret location' or 'unexplored treasure trove.' Think we'll stick with selling shovels…after all, with nearly 24,000 claims being on file with the California BLM office alone, there should be plenty of demand. The new 49ers are not down at Candlestick Park. They're up in Yreka.
Unfortunately, there is also another, much darker side to the New Gold Rush. Not everyone is content to swirl mud in a large pan in the Sierra Nevadas. Even that hobby is claimed to have completely upset the ecosystem that river salmon live in that picturesque region. Let's take Colombia, for example. It has recently acquired (according to the UN) the dubious distinction of having become the planet's number on mercury polluter. Several of the country's regions have reported mercury levels some 1000 times higher than what is deemed acceptable by the WHO.
Nearly 50 tonnes of mercury are estimated as being released in just five of the largest gold-mining towns in the country on an annual basis. The cost? How about one Colombian town –Remedios- where at least one kidney transplant per month is the price being paid for coming in contact with mercury vapor? Not to mention memory loss, ADD, speech impediments, and severe chronic head ailments. More than 40 firms are known to be digging for gold in the country and the production of the yellow metal is forecast to boom to nearly 100 tonnes per annum soon.
Peter L. Bernstein, the author of "The Power of Gold" once said: "It's never been clear if we have gold or if gold has us."
One of these days, if you are really curious as to what the real price of gold is, go visit the National Geographic website. At http://ngg.nationalgeographic.com/2009/01 you will find an expose on just that topic. Hint: it is not a dollar figure.
"No Blood Diamonds" is a slogan for the times. Perhaps "No Dirty Gold" should have an equal billing, five years after the establishment of the organization bearing the same name. After all, how many gold buyers are aware that a single wedding ring's production entails the generation of 20 tonnes (that's 44,000 lbs.) of waste?

Investorideas.com - Gold Stocks; Gold Bullion (TSX-V: GBB) nears halfway mark of Phase 2 drill program
Investorideas.com - Gold Stocks; Gold Bullion (TSX-V: GBB) nears halfway mark of Phase 2 drill program
VANCOUVER - July 13, 2010 (Investorideas.com Mining stocks Newswire) - Mr. Frank J. Basa reports: Gold Bullion Development Corp. (TSX.V: GBB) (the "Company" or "Gold Bullion"), is pleased to report that a 20,000 metre Phase 2 drill program at its 100% owned Granada Gold Property is proceeding ahead of schedule with a total of 9000 metres (47 holes) completed as of this morning. Granada, five kilometers south of Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec, is situated along the prolific "Cadillac Trend" where numerous multi-million ounce gold deposits have been discovered.
While one Landdrill International Inc. rig is handling infill drilling at 30-metre spacing within the LONG Bars Zone Preliminary Block Model, the other drill rig is in the Phase 1 east-northeast discovery area in an effort to further define the extent of mineralization near surface and below 150 metres vertical depth in this part of the LONG Bars Zone. Drilling in this promising area has totaled nearly 4,000 metres (17 holes) so far and is consistently intersecting multiple zones of altered feldspar porphyry, favorable for gold mineralization, along with some quartz veining in all directions surrounding discovery hole GR-10-17. Visible gold has been observed in a few of the holes.
Drilling is gradually pushing east of GR-10-17 as GENIVAR, Gold Bullion's geological consultant, continues to test a number of auriferous structures contained within a wide, east-west trending zone of shearing, alteration and quartz veining. In a significant development, GENIVAR has planned a deep hole (365 metres vertical depth) 176 metres east-southeast of GR-10-17. Drilling of this target, which would be the deepest hole drilled so far by Gold Bullion at Granada, is expected to commence within the next day or two and is designed to confirm an extension of altered zones that have been discovered in other Phase 2 holes 75 metres to the northwest and southwest, respectively.
Gold Bullion's 4,900 hectare land package extends several kilometers east of GR-10-17 (the easternmost hole drilled in Phase 1) which includes an area the Company is now calling "LONG Bars Zone 2". Historically defined as part of the Granada "Eastern Extension", numerous gold showings in LONG Bars Zone 2 were reported as far back as the 1930's and in an exploration program conducted by KWG Resources in the early 1990's. GENIVAR continues to compile information on LONG Bars Zone 2 which is 1800 metres or 1.5 kilometres east of GR-10-17 and includes a 1 kilometre long shear zone. This area received considerable historical attention but was not viewed in the context of the new geological interpretation of Granada as a potential near-surface, bulk tonnage deposit amenable to open-pit mining.
Several northeasterly fault zones cross the shear zone and are considered prime targets for possible economic gold concentrations. Numerous vein zones, hosted by both Granada Formation conglomerate and feldspar porphyry, have been delineated historically in LONG Bars Zone 2 through trenching with considerable visible gold noted. The auriferous veins reportedly widen with depth and occur in an east-west trending zone measuring at least 1200 metres in length and 200 meters in width.
With similar geological characteristics to the original and current LONG Bars Zone, LONG Bars Zone 2 is a high priority exploration target for Gold Bullion and has the potential of significantly impacting both the scale and geometry of the overall mineralized system at Granada.
"We're thrilled with the rapid progress we're making as we attempt to define an economic, bulk tonnage deposit at Granada, or a series of deposits, amenable to open-pit mining," stated Gold Bullion President and CEO Frank Basa. "LONG Bars Zone 2 adds a whole new dimension to Granada and we look forward to exploring this highly prospective area. Our Preliminary Block Model is very exciting and continues to hold considerable potential as exploratory, infill and definition drilling take place there, but the possibilities for Granada outside the Preliminary Block Model are really starting to come into focus. We're confident we're expanding the LONG Bars Zone strike length with encouraging Phase 2 indications around GR-10-17, and now we have a LONG Bars Zone 2 to give Granada further exploration upside. Combined with our 30,000 tonne bulk sample in 2007 that graded 1.62 g/t Au, we have complete confidence we're on the right track with this very large project," Basa concluded.
With such extensive drilling which started in early May, Gold Bullion is using two assay labs. The Company is eagerly awaiting the first set of results, expected in the near future, but has been advised of delays at both labs due to normal processing backlogs with a large number of core samples from numerous companies being analyzed. Results will be reported as soon as they are available and reviewed.
Mineralization in the LONG Bars Zone is open in all directions.

Investorideas.com - InvestorIdeas – Investing in Lithium – Q&A
InvestorIdeas.com – Investing in Lithium – Q&A with Guillermo Trias, the founder and managing partner of MC CAPITAL
July 13, 2010 (Investorideas.com mining stocks newswire) Investorideas.com and its mining portals present a Q&A interview on the topic of investing in Lithium with Guillermo Trias, the founder and managing partner of MC CAPITAL. MC CAPITAL is a Miami-based venture-stage investment management firm.
Q: Investorideas.com
1. Lithium batteries currently are used in cell phones and PC's and other applications - can you explain to investors the role lithium batteries will play with electric vehicles?
A: Mr. Guillermo Trias
Lithium ion batteries are becoming the best choice for electric vehicles, among other reasons, because lithium-ion stores three times the amount of energy and is much lighter than existing competing technologies.
As of today, almost an insignificant amount of the lithium consumption in the market is used in batteries for cars. That being said, according to a recent study from the Boston Consulting Group, 26% of the new cards sold in 2020 (approx. 14 million cars) will have Lithium ion-batteries. The market for electric car batteries in that year will be worth some 25 billion. This will be about triple the size of today’s entire lithium-ion-battery market used for laptops and cell phones.
How this will impact the overall market?
Competition for that buoyant market is already going on all along the industry value chain. A strong current of alliances and joint ventures is underway too. Innovation is spreading and will continue to spread throughout the value chain. Also, the government will play an important role to ensure that companies employ battery and electric car technology.
Q: Investorideas.com
2. We read recent research data that shows the market for electric vehicles is anticipated to reach 32.7 million autos shipped by 2015, if this data is correct, how do you see the supply/demand chain rolling out?
A: Mr. Guillermo Trias
There is a lot of noise out there on the supply and demand for Lithium, but still there is some confusion. In our opinion, the confusion combined with the growing demand has the potential to open huge opportunities in the market.
On the Supply side, competition for market share will significantly increase among players throughout the value chain, bringing volumes up and prices down. On the demand side, market enthusiasm for these green technologies will translate into a highly-informed consumer - one that is aiming for greener, safer and more economic cars.
The way we see the supply/demand right now is that even if there is an abundance of lithium in the market today, anticipated developments in the marketplace, such as the development of the electric car and clean tech industries will significantly impact the global demand of Lithium.
Q: Investorideas.com
3. What countries and markets are dominant in the lithium market?
A: Mr. Guillermo Trias
Regarding the supply side, South America is at the epicenter of the Lithium’s future. The largest salt-brine lithium reserves (where lithium can most easily be acquired) are found in salt flats in Chile, southwestern Bolivia and northwestern Argentina. Currently, Chile is the world’s largest lithium producer. Argentina is also a major player. This country has attracted a variety of junior miners that are carrying out studies to jumpstart development in new areas. Bolivia has one of the largest lithium deposits in the world and promises to be one of the leading players in securing a lithium supply in the future. Other countries with significant reserves are China, Russia, Serbia, Australia and Canada
On the demand side, the US, Western Europe, China and Japan lead the lists. Regarding technology innovation, it is interesting to highlight that lithium-ion technology patents filed in China, Japan the US and Western Europe in 2008 grew 26% from 2005.
Q: Investorideas.com
4. What should investors be looking for when researching lithium stocks?
A: Mr. Guillermo Trias
Besides the opportunity for high growth returns associated with lithium, or what we like to refer to as “green gold”, they should look at an appropriate balance of exposure as well as protection from the systemic risks associated to these stocks, in the form of political and economic instability, industry fundamentals, both country and region-specific. The way to mitigate those risks is to diversify accordingly – horizontal and vertical diversification within the industry, getting exposure to the product while staying away from the operational risks of local environments by investing through publicly traded securities. A listed product like an ETF representing companies all along the value chain, transparent on the underlying companies, and with indicative net asset value, is the safest way to invest in the lithium movement and get exposure to the entire supply chain.
Q: Investorideas.com
5. What are the potential problems in the lithium battery markets moving forward?
A: Mr. Guillermo Trias
One area of concern is the potential for safety issues - any small problem could turn public opinion against electric mobility and set back industry development for month of years. The time required to charge the lithium-ion batteries used in electric cars also presents a potential obstacle for the development of these markets. On the technical and engineering side of the market, limited driving range of the electric vehicles might change the direction of the market. Finally, the sudden dramatic decrease in oil prices could threaten the demand for lithium ion batteries going forward.
Q: Investorideas.com
6. For investors sitting on the fence in this market - can you hi-lite some of the driving forces (including the Electric Vehicle Deployment Act) in the short term that might motivate them to step in?
A: Mr. Guillermo Trias
The Lithium market will develop rapidly over the next 10 years as a consequence of the critical importance that this metal has to the clean tech, automotive, and tech industries. As it did in the last few decades, Lithium will continue to be a key resource in traditional industrial processes and products, which include aluminum, glass/ceramics, grease, air-conditioning, etc. World demand has almost doubled in the past 10 years as have tonnage prices. While demand has dropped by about 10% due to the worldwide recession, it is now back on a strong growth track.
However, the really exciting role for lithium is its use in the renewable energy market. Starting in the 1990’s, lithium ion was developed as an energy storage material. It is lighter and with more storage capacity by a factor of than any other materials. Lithium will become critical for the development of highly efficient storage systems for clean technologies:
Batteries for electric vehicles and for the computer systems that control the vehicles.
Batteries to store excess energy produced by wind, solar and water systems
Batteries for computer control systems in residential homes to efficiently manage electric usage - the “Smart Grid”, which is now a national priority
Market demand will also be driven by the development of new environmental policies in highly populated countries in Asia. Countries like China or India have the opportunity to establish and implement the regulatory framework to force a massive adoption of the electric vehicle among their citizens, in order to overcome the huge environmental challenges that their polluted cities face.

Winnipeg, Manitoba - July 6, 2010 (Investorideas.com Mining Stocks Newswire) - Wildcat Exploration Ltd. (TSX-V:WEL) is pleased to announce that it has mobilized two exploration crews to its gold projects in the Rice Lake greenstone belt of Manitoba. In addition, on the Reed Lake project in the Flin Flon Snow Lake greenstone belt of Manitoba the Company's geologists identified two significant areas for further work in preparation for a planned drill program in the 2010/11 winter drilling season.
The Company is conducting work on its 100% owned Mike Power property, located 3 km northwest of the town of Bissett, MB. The Company's geologists are mapping structures and utilizing the results of an airborne magnetic survey, completed in June, to identify potential undercover gold-bearing structures. Wildcat's current work program, which will continue through July, is intended to identify targets for drilling later in the year. The property is on strike with the gold deposits of San Gold Corporation and shares similar host rocks and structures. A drill program is currently being conducted by StrikePoint Gold Inc. and San Gold on ground between the Company's Mike Power project and the San Gold deposits.
Concurrently, a second exploration team is following up previously announced gold and copper occurrences on the Company's Garner property. An airborne geophysical survey of the property, completed by Wildcat in June, has identified conductors associated with known copper mineralization for ground followup. The property is located 40 km southeast of Bissett near former gold producers including the Gunnar and the Central Manitoba mines. The property straddles the area between the West Garner shear zone to the east, which is an important metamorphic boundary, and the Beresford Lake shear zone to the west which is characterized by intense host rock alteration.
Commenting on the Rice Lake projects, Tom Lewis, Wildcat's V.P. Exploration, said, "Following on the successes by San Gold and coupled with our recently acquired airborne data base, our geological mapping team is well-positioned to track gold-bearing structures and identify new depositional sites for drill testing later in 2010."
The 100% owned Reed Lake Project, situated 35 km southwest of the town of Snow Lake, Manitoba, is underlain by volcanic and intrusive rocks belonging to the Flin Flon - Snow Lake greenstone belt. Geophysical data suggest that these rocks trend onto the Reed Lake Project along strike from the Rail copper-zinc deposit of Rockcliff Resources Inc. and the Wine nickel-copper mineralization of Cream Minerals Ltd., both types of which have distinctive conductive signatures. This positions the Reed Lake Project to host either or both deposit types.
Wildcat's recent work program, which included mapping, sampling and surface geophysical surveys with a focus on favourable host rocks and alteration associated with either copper-zinc or nickel-copper mineralization, was cut short by forest fire activity in the general area. In the abbreviated work program a target area was identified near a sample taken in 2008 that assayed 1.58% copper in a shear zone (see news release dated September 23, 2008). Hosting the mineralization are volcanic rocks consisting of volcanoclastic rhyolites, andesites and tuffs, which are known to host volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) deposits in Flin Flon and elsewhere. In addition, chlorite alteration was mapped in association with the copper mineralization. Chlorite represents an important indicator alteration mineral associated with the hydrothermal activity (pipes) that introduce copper and zinc sulphides in a VMS deposit.
A second area hosted in gabbroic rocks on the western portion of the property was found. This area holds potential for nickel-copper-platinum group elements mineralization. Channel samples were cut from the rocks exhibiting blebby and disseminated sulphides which will be submitted for analysis.
The Company recently staked additional claims on the northeast flank of the property, increasing the total area to 8,037 hectares in 43 contiguous claims. The planned geological mapping and sampling on the new claims will be carried out in a second Reed Lake program in the third quarter of 2010.
Tom Lewis commented, "We are pleased that our work on the Reed Lake Project has identified favourable geological features including host rocks and alteration essential to the deposition of base metals in an area with known copper mineralization. This work has narrowed our search and the next phase, planned for the third quarter, will involve an electromagnetic survey to test the favourable areas, with winter drilling contingent on the survey results."
Wildcat's exploration program is being managed by Tom Lewis, B.Sc. P.Eng., a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101. All technical information in this release has been reviewed by Tom Lewis, B.Sc. P.Eng., as the Qualified Person.

Visit this company: www.yaleresources.com
July 6, 2010 (Investorideas.com Mining stocks Newswire) - Yale Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: YLL and Frankfurt: YAB) is pleased to announce that the next phase of field work has started at the wholly owned Guadalupe property, located in the heart of the Fresnillo district, on behalf of partner Gold American Mining Inc. (OTC – SILA, previously Silver America Inc.).
The field program underway will include seventeen line kilometres of geophysics (Induced Polarization and Magnetics) as well as additional detailed sampling and mapping. This second phase of exploration is expected to last 3 weeks.
Yale's Mexican staff has recently acquired additional geological data for the Guadalupe property and surrounding area. This data indicates that additional historical workings exist within the property that have not been visited or sampled by Yale to date. Along with the geophysics these new areas will be a focus of this next phase of exploration.
The Guadalupe Property:
The 282.84 hectare Guadalupe Property is located approximately 4 kilometres north of the city of Fresnillo, Zacatecas State, Mexico. The property is approximately 8 kilometres north of the Fresnillo (Proaño) Mine, the world's richest underground silver mine operated by Fresnillo plc. The property is also approximately 11 kilometres northeast of the Juanicipio Joint Venture between MAG Silver Corp. and Fresnillo plc.
The Property contains greater than 20 known workings as well as two historic mines –Santa Rita and San Antonio. Historic records containing references to the Santa Rita and San Antonio mines suggest that both mines were important and reached their height of production between 1910 and 1920 but were last in production in the 1980's. The property is completely surrounded by land controlled by Peñoles (either through Fresnillo or other subsidiaries and partners).
Highlight results from the first phase exploration program were (see news release dated May 13, 2010):
1.00 g/t Au and 946.9 g/t Ag over 1.1m
including 1.83 g/t Au and 1,800.0 g/t Ag over 0.5 m
0.30 g/t Au and 622.0 g/t Ag from a mineralized dump
0.59 g/t Au and 330.0 g/t Ag over 0.7 m
5.35 g/t Au and 1,189.0 g/t Ag from a mineralized dump
Status of Option Agreement:
Gold American has committed to the next period of the Guadalupe option; Yale has received US$20,000 cash as well as an additional 100,000 shares in the Gold American.
To earn a 90% interest Gold American is required to pay Yale US $ 900,000 cash ($40,000 received), spend US $ 2,000,000 on exploration expenditures and issue 1,000,000 shares to Yale (200,000 received) in staged payments over four years. Yale will act as the operator for the project. The minimum work commitment before June 30, 2011 is US $ 400,000 including a minimum of 2,000 metres of drilling. Should the earn-in be completed Yale will retain a 10% participating interest in the property as well as a 2% NSR, which can be bought out in entirety for US $ 2,000,000.
About Yale Resources:
Yale Resources is an exploration and development company concentrating in northwestern Mexico that is building value through project generation. Yale has three of its seven properties optioned out to value added partners. These agreements combine for minimum commitments of approximately US $1,100,000 of exploration expenditures over the next 12 months. Yale continues to work on its non-optioned properties as well as reviewing new projects with a focus on gold.
Samples from the Guadalupe property were prepared and analyzed by Stewart Labs in their facilities in Mexico and Kamloops, respectively. Samples generally consisted of 1-3 kg of material. Gold and silver analyses were performed by 30 gram fire assay with an AA finish. Samples with greater than 100 g/t silver were re-assayed using gravimetric methods.
Ian Foreman, P.Geo., is Yale Resources’ Qualified Person, as defined by National Instrument 43-101, for the Guadalupe property.

Visit this company: www.solteramining.com
July 1, 2010 – (Investorideas.com mining stocks newswire) www.InvestorIdeas.com and its leading mining investor portals, issue the following commentary on Soltera Mining Corp. (OTCPK: SLTA FRANKFURT: SN7) as prepared by Lisa Springer, CFA.
Lisa Springer, CFAEquity research analyst and financial writer
Soltera Mining Secures Strategic Partner and Additional Funding
A key hurdle for many cash-strapped junior mining companies is securing funding for exploration and production activities. Soltera Mining reported a major accomplishment this month with the announcement of $1.5 million in financing and a new strategic partnership. Soltera is partnering with Italian-owned Goldlake Group, which has agreed to provide $1.5 million in financing over the next 12 months and up to $6 million to support development of alluvial gold production at Soltera's El Torno property in Argentina and complete test work on major gold targets.
The agreement is a win/win scenario for both partners since it enables Soltera to further explore and develop its flagship El Torno gold project and Goldlake to lock in new ethical gold supplies from alluvial production.
Goldlake Group is majority-owned by Gold Holding, the family holding company of Franco Colaiacovo, a founder of Italy's third-largest cement company. Through an operating subsidiary, Goldlake holds gold exploration and exploitation concessions encompassing over 10,500 hectares in the Lepaguare Valley of the central Honduras. Goldlake is a leading producer of ethical gold from alluvial deposits and differs from other mineral companies in its commitment to socially and environmentally responsible mining practices. Goldlake's alluvial gold deposits in the Honduras are worked using a cyanide-free extraction process and a zero waste and water management system. In addition, Goldlake ensures complete control over how its ore is mined and sold through an unbroken supply chain from extraction to the end customer. Its commitment to environmentally-friendly mining has been recognized by upscale jeweler Cartier, who has contracted with Goldlake to be an ethical gold supplier.
The financing will consist of three tranches. The first tranche will be released this month and used to pay the annual lease on the El Torno property and to update regulatory filings. A second tranche will be paid before the end of October and is allocated for test work on the alluvial gold as well as six major gold targets. A third tranche will be paid before June 30, 2011 and fund the completion of these objectives. Goldlake reserves the right to opt out of the three tranches if bulk sampling indicates non-economic gold grades, but this seems unlikely given profitable alluvial gold operations under the previous title holder, who ceased work only because of ill health.
Test work on the alluvial gold deposits will begin in September with bulk samples being sent to international assay labs. The analytical data from this test work will be used to optimize the processing plant design. Assuming favorable test results, gold production could begin before the end of 2010.
Soltera owns the rights to mine gold-bearing surface deposits at the El Torno property, which is located in northern Argentina near the Bolivian border. El Torno was explored by Mexican mining conglomerate Penoles (BMV: PE&OLES) in the late 1990s. Penoles estimated gold resources in just one kilometer of the 14 kilometer gold-quartz vein of at least half a million ounces and potentially exceeding two million ounces based on its drilling samples. There are also smaller veins of dispersed gold near the main system and elluvial deposits embedded in gold bearing bedrock found at relatively shallow depths. Soltera plans to develop the elluvial deposits first since these are easily accessible and relatively inexpensive to process.
Based on Penoles' resource estimates and current $1,200 per ounce gold prices, the value of El Torno gold in one kilometer of the 14 kilometer vein could potentially range from $600 million to well over $2 billion. However, Penoles' estimates are based on a limited number of drilling samples, so actual resources could differ materially from their estimates. Geochemical surveys completed in 2008 indicate the gold vein is mineralized throughout its entire length, suggesting the potential for a mega-deposit of gold at El Torno. Current sampling and testing work being performed by Soltera should help update and refine El Torno resource estimates.
Soltera obtained surface mining rights to El Torno this year and had planned to commence production from alluvial deposits in the spring, but lacked sufficient funding to proceed. The capital infusion by Goldlake enables the start-up of surface mining operations. Soltera plans to use cash flow raised through elluvial gold sales to further explore larger underground and open-pit targets, where the majority of El Torno gold is likely located. Exploration efforts will initially focus on the upper 100 meters of the target areas and commence with geophysical prospecting and drilling.

About Soltera Mining Corp. (OTCPK: SLTA FRANKFURT: SN7):Soltera Mining Corp. is a unique exploration company in the sense that it is following two distinct lines of action. The first is conventional, with exploration concentrated on two carefully selected gold and base metal projects in Argentina, particularly the large-scale El Torno gold project in Jujuy. The second, less conventional action is to finance immediate small-scale gold production from a specific section of the 14 km gold-quartz vein at El Torno.

July 1, 2010 – (Investorideas.com mining stocks newswire) www.InvestorIdeas.com and its leading mining investor portals, issue the following commentary on Soltera Mining Corp. (OTCPK: SLTA FRANKFURT: SN7) as prepared by Lisa Springer, CFA.
Lisa Springer, CFAEquity research analyst and financial writer
Soltera Mining Secures Strategic Partner and Additional Funding
A key hurdle for many cash-strapped junior mining companies is securing funding for exploration and production activities. Soltera Mining reported a major accomplishment this month with the announcement of $1.5 million in financing and a new strategic partnership. Soltera is partnering with Italian-owned Goldlake Group, which has agreed to provide $1.5 million in financing over the next 12 months and up to $6 million to support development of alluvial gold production at Soltera's El Torno property in Argentina and complete test work on major gold targets.
The agreement is a win/win scenario for both partners since it enables Soltera to further explore and develop its flagship El Torno gold project and Goldlake to lock in new ethical gold supplies from alluvial production.
Goldlake Group is majority-owned by Gold Holding, the family holding company of Franco Colaiacovo, a founder of Italy's third-largest cement company. Through an operating subsidiary, Goldlake holds gold exploration and exploitation concessions encompassing over 10,500 hectares in the Lepaguare Valley of the central Honduras. Goldlake is a leading producer of ethical gold from alluvial deposits and differs from other mineral companies in its commitment to socially and environmentally responsible mining practices. Goldlake's alluvial gold deposits in the Honduras are worked using a cyanide-free extraction process and a zero waste and water management system. In addition, Goldlake ensures complete control over how its ore is mined and sold through an unbroken supply chain from extraction to the end customer. Its commitment to environmentally-friendly mining has been recognized by upscale jeweler Cartier, who has contracted with Goldlake to be an ethical gold supplier.
The financing will consist of three tranches. The first tranche will be released this month and used to pay the annual lease on the El Torno property and to update regulatory filings. A second tranche will be paid before the end of October and is allocated for test work on the alluvial gold as well as six major gold targets. A third tranche will be paid before June 30, 2011 and fund the completion of these objectives. Goldlake reserves the right to opt out of the three tranches if bulk sampling indicates non-economic gold grades, but this seems unlikely given profitable alluvial gold operations under the previous title holder, who ceased work only because of ill health.
Test work on the alluvial gold deposits will begin in September with bulk samples being sent to international assay labs. The analytical data from this test work will be used to optimize the processing plant design. Assuming favorable test results, gold production could begin before the end of 2010.
Soltera owns the rights to mine gold-bearing surface deposits at the El Torno property, which is located in northern Argentina near the Bolivian border. El Torno was explored by Mexican mining conglomerate Penoles (BMV: PE&OLES) in the late 1990s. Penoles estimated gold resources in just one kilometer of the 14 kilometer gold-quartz vein of at least half a million ounces and potentially exceeding two million ounces based on its drilling samples. There are also smaller veins of dispersed gold near the main system and elluvial deposits embedded in gold bearing bedrock found at relatively shallow depths. Soltera plans to develop the elluvial deposits first since these are easily accessible and relatively inexpensive to process.
Based on Penoles' resource estimates and current $1,200 per ounce gold prices, the value of El Torno gold in one kilometer of the 14 kilometer vein could potentially range from $600 million to well over $2 billion. However, Penoles' estimates are based on a limited number of drilling samples, so actual resources could differ materially from their estimates.

Investorideas.com - Mining Stocks; YALE (TSX-V: YLL) AMENDS TERMS FOR DOS NACIONES OPTION
Investorideas.com - Mining Stocks; YALE (TSX-V: YLL) AMENDS TERMS FOR DOS NACIONES OPTION
Visit this company: www.yaleresources.com
June 30, 2010 (Investorideas.com Mining stocks Newswire) - Yale Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: YLL and Frankfurt: YAB) is pleased to announce that it has agreed to amend its Option Agreement for the Dos Naciones property with partner Del Toro Silver Corp.
Based on the amended terms Del Toro has agreed to issue Yale 150,000 shares in addition to the 200,000 shares as required on or before the first anniversary date of July 7th, 2010 (with all shares subject to the applicable hold periods required by Securities Regulators). Pursuant to the terms of the amended option agreement, Del Toro is required to accrue the $150,000 of expenditures required in the first year of the deal into the second year and therefore has agreed to fund a minimum of $400,000 of expenditures prior to the second anniversary - July 7th, 2011.
Year three obligations of $400,000 of expenditures, the issuance of 250,000 shares on or before July 7th, 2011 and a further 350,000 shares on or before July 7th, 2012 will not change. If Del Toro completes these obligations they will have earned an additional 30% interest to hold an 80% undivided interest in the Dos Naciones property.
The Company has been notified by Del Toro that they intend to continue their work program at Dos Naciones in July. This work is planned to include detailed mapping, trenching and sampling at both the Mina Josefina silver-lead zone and the La Española skarn zone with the goal to delineate drill targets. In addition to planning the upcoming work program, the Company is investigating the opportunity of purchasing detailed exploration data, including drill holes and geophysics from the previous owner of Dos Naciones, Industrias Peñoles.
The Dos Naciones Property:
The 2,391 hectare (23.91 square km) Dos Naciones property is located approximately 160 km northeast of Hermosillo in the heart of Sonora’s porphyry district. Dos Naciones was staked by Yale as the property has the potential for a porphyry-style target. This is evidenced by multiple skarn bodies and silver/lead vein systems occurring in association with a regional magnetic anomaly that measures 2 km in diameter and is coincident with a poorly exposed intrusive body.
About Yale Resources:
Yale Resources is an exploration and development company concentrating in northwestern Mexico that is building value through project generation. Yale has three of its seven properties optioned out to value added partners. These agreements combine for minimum commitments of approximately US $1,100,000 of exploration expenditures over the next 12 months. Yale continues to work on its non-optioned properties as well as reviewing new projects with a focus on gold.
On behalf of the Board,
"Ian Foreman"Ian Foreman, P.Geo.President

Investorideas.com - Mining Stocks; Tombstone Exploration's (OTCBB:TMBXF) Hi-Tech GeoPhysical Program Has Commenced
Visit this company: www.tombstonemining.com
PHOENIX, Ariz. - June 30, 2010 (Investorideas.com Mining Stocks Newswire) - Tombstone Exploration Corporation (OTCBB:TMBXF) announced today that the Company has contracted Geotech Ltd. of Ontario, Canada to fly an airborne Z-Axis Tipper Electromagnetic (ZTEM) on its Tombstone, Arizona property. ZTEM was selected for its ability to achieve unparalleled resolution and depth of investigation. The system is well suited to imaging buried porphyry deposits and is capable of gathering data over 6,000 feet (2 kilometers) below ground surface. Geotech arrived at the Tombstone property on Monday, June 28, 2010.
The airborne ZTEM survey will be over 200 line miles and will cover most of the Tombstone district. The data will be interpreted to provide targets for a giant, high-grade porphyry copper - gold deposit that can be mined by open pit or block caving mining methods. Tombstone is situated 25 miles north of the historic Bisbee porphyry copper mine. There are numerous exploration programs ongoing in the region for porphyry copper deposits.
The project is situated 150 miles southeast of the Resolution deposit, which is currently being explored by Rio Tinto, and is reported to contain an Inferred Resource of 1.34 billion tonnes containing 1.51% copper and 0.04% molybdenum. The Tombstone project has two major intrusions (granodiorite and porphyry) underlain by sediments that could host a Resolution style deposit.
Alan Brown, CEO of Tombstone, commented, "The ZTEM is the most advanced technology available for discovering ore bodies at depth. To understand this technology further, please view www.geotech.ca. This technology is used by many of the major mining companies in their exploration programs."
Geotech Ltd. provides full service contract airborne geophysical surveys, data processing and data interpretation. At the present time, Geotech Ltd. offers VTEM (helicopter-borne time-domain electromagnetic), ZTEM and AirMt (measure natural alternating magnetic fields in the audio-frequency range), magnetic, magnetic gradient and gamma-ray spectrometer surveys. Geotech Ltd. operates nine VTEM systems in North America and world-wide, a total of 30. Their clients are mainly from the mineral and petroleum exploration industries. The proprietary, large dipole moment VTEM system, in the six years since its first commercial survey, has become the airborne system of choice by the exploration community. A number of exploration successes have been attributed to VTEM surveys by the exploration companies.
Tombstone Exploration Corporation (TMBXF) is focused primarily on exploration and development of mineral resources. Tombstone Exploration Corporation has the mineral rights to approximately 14,000 acres of historical mining land in the areas around Tombstone, Arizona and is the largest landholder in the Tombstone Mining District.

The Company is finalizing its initial drill targets based on a prioritization of data received from its previous auger drill exploration program and gravity survey results from Quantec Geoscience Argentina S.A., a subsidiary of Quantec Geoscience Ltd. of Toronto, Canada. Rodinia anticipates drilling under this program to occur to depths between 50 and 250 metres. The Company anticipates that results from this drill program will assist to establish a National Instrument 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the Diablillos property.
William Randall, President and CEO, remarked, "The mobilization and startup of our first RC drill program at Diablillos marks a key milestone for the Company and we are excited to get the drill turning. We have developed an extensive program based on a systematic analysis of the data received from gravity surveys and our recently completed auger drill exploration holes. We have prioritized targets for drilling and are prepared to commence the program."
All exploration and drilling initiatives undertaken by Rodinia are supervised by William Randall, MSc. (Geology), the President and CEO of Rodinia. Mr. Randall is a qualified person, as defined by National Instrument 43-101, and he has reviewed and approved the scientific and technical information in this release. According to the Company's sampling protocol, sample size is to exceed 300 milliltres and be stored in clean, secure containers for transportation. The prepared samples are then forwarded to the ALS Laboratory Group, Environmental Division, in Fort Collins, CO (USA) for analysis. A rigorous QA/QC program is implemented consisting of regular insertion of standards and blanks to ensure laboratory integrity.
