Update For The Lone Star Copper-Gold Project


VANCOUVER - George Sookochoff, President & CEO of Belmont Resources Inc., said, “We are certainly creating synergies with our new option/JV partner Marquee Resources. In only a few days since the signing of our option/JV agreement, the Lone Star project has gone from “zero” to “ready to put the drill in the ground!” We are now comfortably setup and prepared to start drilling, and continue 24/7 right through winter.”

The past producing Lone Star Mine operated over two time periods; from 1897-1918 producing 146,540 tonnes, and from 1977-1978 by Granby Mining Co. when 400,000 tonnes of ore were transported from the Lone Star open pit to its Phoenix mill in B.C, 11km to the north. The Lone Star deposit has an historic resource estimate which was reported in a “Technical Report and Resource Estimate on the Lone Star Deposit, Ferry County Washington (September 23, 2007)” for Merit Mining Corp. and authored by P&E Mining Consultants Inc.
