Zinc-Lead-Silver-Copper-Cobalt-Gold
Nepisiguit Zinc-Lead-Silver-Copper SLAM has completed 85 holes at Nepisiguit to date with 70 drilled during the 2011 program. Assays are still pending from the 2011 program, of which the primary objective has been to define an NI 43-101 compliant resource with a near-surface component ameniable to open-pit mining.
The project comprises 78 claims covering 1770 hectares located on highway 430 approximately 15 km southwest of the world-class BMS No. 12 mine operated by Xstrata. Nepisiguit is a volcanogenic massive sulphide deposit discovered in 1956. Previous workers defined 3 zones known as the Nepisiguit A, B and C zones with a series of shallow holes that pre-
SLAM reported a tonnage estimate from its 100% owned Nash Creek deposit located 20 km west of the Belledune seaport in New Brunswick on 12 February 2009. Details of this estimate have been published in a 43-101 compliant Technical Report prepared by Wardrop Engineering Ltd. and can be viewed at www.sedar.com.
Goodwin Lake Nickel-Copper-Cobalt-Silver Goodwin is a Nickel-Copper-Cobalt-Silver project comprising 141 claims covering 3,125 hectares located 25 km southwest of SLAM’s Nepisiguit deposit in the prolific Bathurst Mining Camp of New Brunswick. Recent drilling has show the project has great potential.
TSN Zinc-Lead-Silver-Copper-Cobalt-Gold SLAM made a new discovery of volcanogenic massive sulphides in 2008 and drilled 3 diamond drill holes in early 2009 at SLAM's wholly owned TSN project in the Bathurst Mining Camp. The initial hole intersected widespread stringer mineralization comprising pyrrhotite and pyritye with local copper, lead and zinc. This hole tested a VTEM anomaly located near the occurrence of massive sulphides discovered in 2008.
SLAM drilled 11 holes into the Costigan base metal sulphide deposit in 2008. All 11 holes intersected sulphide mineralization over core lengths ranging from 3.0 to 28.4 metres and zinc + lead grades ranging from 1.85% to 9.96%. The deposit is open at depth and along strike. |

SLAM discovers new zone of Nickel, Copper and Cobalt on it's wholly owned Goodwin Lake Nickel project in Northern New Brunswick. The project is located 5 km south of the Halfmile lead-zinc-silver deposit currently being developed by Trevali Mining Corporation in the prolific Bathurst Mining Camp of New Brunswick and nearby to Xstrata's BMS#12 Mine.

SLAM is pleased to report additional gold assays from its recently acquired gold discovery located at Saint Quentin, New Brunswick. A series of quartz veins were excavated in 3 trenches 100m along strike from the original Lavoie discovery vein. Of 31 grab samples collected from quartz veins as well as adjacent sediments, 25 samples contain gold ranging from 0.04 g/t to 7.18 g/t.
