About The NW Gold Project: SLAM has an option to earn 100% interest in the NW Gold Project which comprises 20 claims covering 6275 hectares of highly prospective sedimentary rocks located near Saint Quentin, in northwest New Brunswick. Local prospector Tim Lavoie discovered gold-bearing quartz float in the fall of 2011. SLAM acquired the property through an option agreement and followed up with a prospecting and trenching program in December. The trenches uncovered gold-beating quartz veins with grab samples up to 493 g/t gold. Additional information including photos about the NW Gold project can be viewed at http://www.slamresources.com/projects/new-brunswick/nw-gold/.
About The Menneval Project: SLAM recently made a new gold discovery called the Maisie Zone 30 km north of the Lavoie discovery. The Company holds 100% interest in 17 contiguous claims covering 25,570 hectares all acquired by map-staking near Menneval in northwest New Brunswick. It includes 4 claims covering 692 hectares that are subject to a 1.5% NSR. SLAM can buy down 0.5% NSR for C$0.5M and has right of first refusal on remaining 1%. The extensive property hosts a number of new gold discoveries including the Maisie zone. It also covers 3 previously discovered silver-base metal skarn deposits where exploration programs date back to 1965. Maps and photos from the Menneval project can be viewed at http://www.slamresources.com/projects/new-brunswick/menneval/.
About New Brunswick: New Brunswick is currently rated the world's most attractive jurisdiction for mineral exploration and development, as announced by the Fraser Institute, February 23, 2012. The Province has demonstrated potential for large mineral deposits and can be expected to generate mining operations well beyond closure of the world-class BMS No. 12 mine operated by Xstrata.
