Probe Launches AGORACOM IR Hub Ahead of Schedule - Online Investor Community Now Live
|
| | TORONTO, ONTARIO, Sept. 27, 2007 - Probe Mines Ltd. (TSX VENTURE: PRB)
Pursuant to a press release issued on September 20, 2007, Probe Mines has moved its schedule ahead and is pleased to announce that the IR Hub provided by AGORACOM Investor Relations ("AGORACOM") (http://www.agoracom.com) to provide online investor relations services, a Web 2.0 social network for current shareholders and Tier-1 awareness through the world's biggest websites for the purpose of attracting new shareholders; is now live.
The McFauld's Lake area has quickly taken on added significance in the investment community with Noront Resources' recent high-grade, nickel-copper-PGM discovery. Probe's 100%-owned McFauld's West property, which was staked in 2005, is proving to be one of our most important to date.
Noront's Hole NOT-07-05, is the most significant hole to date, as the most recent assay results include; 68.3 meters averaging 5.9% nickel, 3.1% copper, 2.87 g/t platinum, 9.78 g/t palladium, 0.61 g/t gold and 8.5 g/t silver; the highest grades were from a 3 meter section of hole that averaged 8.7% nickel, 10.9% copper, 40.79 g/t platinum, 14.57 g/t palladium, 9.39 g/t gold and 8.7 g/t silver.
Although in its early stages, the grades of the discovery mineralization rival that of the world's primary nickel/copper/pgm producing areas.
Probe is fortunate to be proximal to such a significant discovery, and we will be focussed on exploring these valuable claims in the months to come. Probe has already completed a preliminary reconnaissance program and is planning a winter exploration program to fully develop and expand its interests in this exciting area play.
Probe also holds a substantial land position in other areas of the belt, and we are now re-evaluating this ground for nickel-copper potential. Our Tamarack Project, which is now under an Option-Joint Venture agreement with Mantis Mineral Corporation, is the site of our high-grade copper discovery and work will continue on this and potential nickel-copper mineralization. Probe is also active on its 100%-owned Victory Project, which is focused on exploration in an associated volcanic belt immediately adjacent to the McFauld's Lake Volcanic Belt.
While historically the McFauld's Lake Belt is known for its base metal volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) deposits, this new nickel/copper/pgm intersection broadens the scope for exploration in the area and strengthens its potential as a new Canadian mining camp.
