Gold Stocks
LAKEWOOD, CO -- (Marketwire) -- 06/30/11 -- Colorado Goldfields Inc. (OTCQB: CGFIA) (PINKSHEETS: CGFIA) announced on June 28, 2011 that it has acquired the Payday and Rage Mines located in San Juan County, Northeast of Monticello, Utah. This acquisition marks a significant expansion into other metals, both 'precious' and 'exotic,' and provides Colorado Goldfields a greatly enhanced ability to capitalize on a wider number of market drivers for price -- both investor economics and manufacturing.
The elevation of the properties is between 5,500 to 6,000 feet with the main drainage area being the East Canyon Wash. The properties enjoy excellent access provided by a two lane county maintained road. The claims are part of the Morrison Formation known for the many valuable deposits of uranium.
The sandstone formation along the East Canyon Wash contains a good grade of Uranium and is easily mineable. Adjacent to the claims, a drift runs 800 feet. A full face of ore ranging from 8 - 12 feet in thickness is average on the properties. The sides and back of the drift indicate ore values ranging from 0.35 to 0.80 Uranium, and up 3% Vanadium.
Furthermore, the ridge to the north of the East Canyon Wash has many notable adits, including Deremo Shaft Mine, Locust Mine, Rim Shaft Mine and the Vanadium Queen, where several thousand pounds of uranium ore were removed from the 1950s thru 1970s.
East Canyon is included within the Lisbon Valley District where, since 1952 until the early 1990s over 85 million pounds of uranium were produced along the flanks of the Lisbon Valley anticline.
The claims are located within 30 miles of White Mesa Mill. The White Mesa Mill is a fully permitted uranium mill with a vanadium co-product recovery circuit, and is the only conventional uranium mill currently operating in the United States. It is located in rural southeastern Utah, near the town of Blanding in San Juan County. Access is by state highway. The Mill has been in operation for over 25 years since its startup in 1980.
Colorado Goldfields acquired the properties in all stock transaction consisting of 125,000,000 shares of 1-year restricted Class A Common Stock and 125,000,000 shares of 2-year restricted Class A Common Stock.
