Antelope Zinc-Lead-Silver Property Expands
EDMONTON - Firestone Ventures Inc. reported expansion of the Antelope project by 250 acres through staking following the first week of prospecting and fieldwork on the property. Firestone has staked an additional 13 mineral claims, bringing the total Antelope land package up to 250 hectares (621 acres). The road-accessible Antelope zinc-lead-silver oxide project is located 75 km southwest of Eureka, Nevada. Firestone has an option to earn 100% interest in the project through Lease Option Agreements signed with two underlying vendors.
The Company's field crew has commenced its Phase 1 surface exploration program consisting of mapping, prospecting, grid establishment and soil and rock sampling. Fieldwork is expected to be completed by August 15. By integrating the results from Phase 1 with compiled historical data, Firestone will identify potential targets for a Phase 2 diamond drilling program. Timing of a potential drill program is contingent on permitting timelines with the US Forest Service. The company's address is #220 17010 - 103 Avenue, Edmonton, Alberta T5S 1K7.
