NEWSMelkior Resources Inc.: 247 Claims Acquired in Geraldton-Long Lac
OTTAWA, ONTARIO, Dec 13, 2007 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX News Network) --
Melkior Resources Inc (TSX VENTURE: MKR) is pleased to announce the acquisition by staking of a 100% interest in 247 claim units (3952 hectares) in the eastern portion of the Beardmore-Geraldton-Long-Lac gold exploration area. Significant exploration success by Kodiak Exploration Ltd and others has attracted renewed interest in this camp which hosts numerous former gold producers.
The claims cover mapped volcanic and sedimentary units located approximately 15km east of Long Lac. An airborne electromagnetic survey conducted by the Ontario Geological Survey of the Geraldton-Long Lac area in 1988 was used as basis for the staking. Geological rock formation contacts, structures and electromagnetic anomalies were covered by the Melkior staking.
Melkior will evaluate previous exploration work and results by others on the newly acquired claims and on adjacent properties in planning a 2008 gold exploration program.
