Omineca Commences Airborne Terrain Survey at Fraser Canyon Gold Project

Cranbrook, British Columbia CANADA, June 19, 2014 /FSC/ - Omineca Mining and Metals ("Omineca", TSX-V:OMM), announces that an airborne LiDAR and Digital Photography survey will be conducted within the next week over the Company's 100%-owned Fraser Canyon project, located 25 km northwest of Quesnel.

The Fraser Canyon property is comprised of 1,222 ha of mineral claims, placer claims and placer leases that overlie a buried Tertiary channel with a basal gold-bearing cobble conglomerate. The channel crosses the Fraser River at the downstream end of Cottowood Canyon and has seen sporadic historic development since its initial discovery following the 1860's gold rush. Most of the historic development is concentrated on the south side of the Fraser River, named the Canyon Mine, with lesser development on the northern side, named the Tertiary Mine.

A bulk sample completed in 1986 at the Canyon Mine by a previous owner recovered 421.6 Troy ounces of gold and 40.3 Troy ounces of silver from 9,932 cubic yards of processed material. The average channel width used as a cut-off grade in historic evaluations is 30.48 m.

The 2014 exploration program consists of a 22 square-km airborne LiDAR ("Light Detection and Ranging") and Digital Photography survey which will be flown on the property by Eagle Mapping Ltd. of Vancouver. This data will aid in future exploration programs, with the intent of better defining gold-bearing paleochannels. In conjunction with this survey, a complete data compilation will be performed, encompassing all available historical data on the property which includes diamond drilling, geophysical surveys and biogeochemical surveys. This work will ensure that a modern and complete dataset is available to help guide future work on the property.
