SASKATOON, Oct. 23, 2014 /CNW/ - 49 North Resources Inc. ("49 North" or the "Company") (TSXV: FNR, TSXV: FNR.RT) reports that Omineca Mining and Metals Ltd. (TSXV: OMM) and its wholly owned subsidiary CVG Mining Inc. (collectively "OMM" or "Omineca") filed a comprehensive amended mine plan under a Notice of Work with the British Columbia Ministry of Energy and Mines (please see OMM News Release - October 22, 2014). 49 North currently owns 69.9% of the issued and outstanding voting shares of Omineca.
The Notice of Work and its mine plan outline OMM's next phase of advanced exploration to demonstrate its approach to mining the 2,700ha Wingdam Gold Project located 43 km east of Quesnel, British Columbia within the prolific Cariboo Goldfields, a renowned placer gold-producing district. The Wingdam Gold Project is currently permitted under a British Columbia Ministry of Natural Resource Operations permit and a British Columbia Ministry of Environment Effluent Discharge permit, and has been under care and maintenance since September 2012.
49 North Management is pleased that the highly skilled team at Omineca has been able to advance this project prudently during what has been a challenging resource investment climate. We look forward to seeing the next phase of the Notice of Work get underway targeting near term gold production. With production to be processed underground using a simple gravity separation wash plant; milling, leaching and tailings facilities and the attendant costs associated with traditional mining are not required to produce alluvial gold at Wingdam.
49 North is a Saskatchewan focused resource investment company with strategic operations in financial, managerial and geological advisory services and merchant banking. Our diversified portfolio of assets includes direct project involvement in the resource sector, as well as investments in shares and other securities of junior and intermediate mineral and oil and gas exploration companies.
