Aquila Resources Inc.: Correction to Globe and Mail Report
TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 10/04/10 -- AQUILA RESOURCES INC. (TSX: AQA)(FRANKFURT: JM4A) ('Aquila' or the 'Company') today commented on a newspaper article which erroneously quoted research on the Company. A column in The Globe and Mail, Report on Business, on October 1, 2010 referred to a downgrade of Aquila Resources Ltd. (an Australian, ASX listed company) by an RBC Dominion Securities analyst based in Sydney. RBC Dominion does not publish research about Aquila Resources Inc. (TSX: AQA), and the reference was directed specifically at the Australian company. The Globe and Mail published a correction in Saturday's edition with regard to the error.
Aquila Resources Inc. has a 49% interest in the Back Forty Project, a gold and zinc-rich VMS deposit located in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan in a joint venture with HudBay Minerals Inc. Target timeline for a feasibility study and mine permit application for the project is by the end of 2011. Exploration drilling has recently resumed at the project.
Thomas O. Quigley is the Qualified Person for Aquila as described in National Instrument 43-101, and is responsible for the contents of this release.
More information about Aquila and the Back Forty Project, including updated drilling information, can be found on the Company's website at www.aquilaresources.com.
