Monument starts to sparkle for New Nadina

摘要

Drill results from the Monument diamond project in the Northwest Territories point to the possibility of finding sizable stones, say its joint-venture owners. New Nadina Explorations (NNA-V, NNADF-O) holds 57 percent of the property, which sits on the shores of Lac de Gras, and acts as the operator. But the junior is more than open to suggestions from its partners, which include two of the men who first found diamonds in Canada's North. Stewart Blusson, who, with Chuck Fipke, found the kimberlite pipes that feed the Ekati mine, is the head of 21 percent-owner Archon Minerals (ACS-V, AHNMF-O). The other 22 percent is held by Chris and Jeanne Jennings; Chris Jennings was a key member of the team that discovered the nearby Diavik mine.
