The Jungle Lake deposit was discovered and drilled by HBED from 1958 to 1967. Historical resource estimates calculated by HBED on the Jungle Lake deposit are 3.4 million tonnes grading 1.42% copper and 1.1% zinc All resources stated in this press release are historical in nature. Although the resource estimations are believed to be reliable, they were calculated prior to the implementation of National Instrument 43-101. Halo and its Qualified Persons have not done sufficient work to reclassify the historical estimates as current mineral resources. Halo is not treating the historical estimates as current mineral resources and the historical estimates should not be relied upon. More recent estimates or data are not available to Halo.

Halo has the option to earn 100 percent interest in the Jungle Lake deposit from HBED through a series of cash and share payments and escalating work commitments as detailed in the option agreement.

Objectives

  1. To confirm historical mineralized intervals reported by Hudson Bay in the 1950s,

  2. To test the mineralized horizon down dip and test the limits of the historical resource envelope.

The Jungle Lake deposit was discovered and drilled by Hudson Bay from 1958 to 1967. Historical resource estimates calculated by Hudson Bay on the Jungle Lake deposit are 3.4 million tonnes grading 1.42% copper and 1.1% zinc.

This year, 3,242 metres of drilling in 15 diamond drill holes were completed at the Jungle Lake copper-zinc deposit. They confirm the near surface presence of massive sulphides and the drill program improved the opportunity for open-pit mining of the deposit. These results formed the basis of the NI43-101 resource estimate that is in preparation by Scott Wilson and expected by year end.
