Montoro & Belmont Add Strategic Labrador
Properties To Their Uranium Portfolios
International Montoro Resources Inc. (“IMT”)
and Belmont Resources Inc. (“BEA”) are pleased
to announce that they have signed an agreement to acquire
100% interest in four claim blocks (126 units approx. 4000
ha) in the CENTRAL MINERAL BELT URANIUM DISTRICT, LABRADOR.
The first claim block – location Post Hill (36 units)
is located in an area surrounded by a large land package being
extensively explored by Aurora Energy Inc. (Altius Mineral
Corporation – “ALS” and Fronteer Development
Group Inc. – “FRG”). The Altius/Fronteer
land package is in one of the most prolific uranium districts
in Canada. Over the past two years, Fronteer and Altius have
identified widespread surface uranium mineralization associated
with undrilled radiometric anomalies that are up to 4.0 square
kilometres in size (“ALS” – June 20/05).
Universal Uranium Ltd. (“UUL”) and Silver Spruce
Resources J.V. are also conducting extensive exploration programs
near the Post Hill claims.
The second and third claim groups in West Central Labrador-
location MacLean Lake (28 units) and Smallwood Reservoir (41
units) are situated south and adjacent to BHP Billiton and
Gallery Resources Ltd. exploration camps. The main Trans Labrador
Hwy. which runs from Churchill Falls to the mining centre
of Shefferville, Quebec crosses through the lower portion
of these claims, allowing good access to these properties.
The fourth claim block also in West Central Labrador –location
Way Bay (21 units) is also strategically located south and
adjacent to the large claim block (Gabbro Lake) being developed
by Consolidated Abaddon Resources Inc. (“ABN”)
and again near additional ground held by BHP and Gallery.
BHP Billiton and Gallery are completing a detailed evaluation
(nickel-copper) of recently completed ground truthing of the
airborne electromagnetic conductors encountered on the Gabbro
Lake Project. Consolidated Abaddon is completing a comprehensive
report on the exploration results regarding the potential
of U308 sources on the property.
The Companies will be commissioning NI 43-101 reports as
soon as possible to allow the planning of a 2006 exploration
and due diligence program in one of the most prospective and
important uranium districts in Canada.
Terms of the Montoro/Belmont Option Agreement, subject to
regulatory approvals, are $60,000 cash over two years and
200,000 treasury common shares ($30,000 and 100,000 shares
each from Montoro and Belmont). The property is also subject
to a 2% NSR with a one percent (1%) buy-out for $500,000.
