Exploration Permits Granted For Northern Finland Gold-Copper Project

VANCOUVER - Capella Minerals Ltd has been granted exploration permits covering five priority gold-copper targets on its Northern Finland Gold-Copper project. The Company's initial priorities will be on the evaluation of potential extensions to Outokumpu Oy's former Saattopora gold-copper mining operation, together with initial diamond drill testing of the historical gold-copper Bottom of Till (BoT) geochemical anomalies defined by Anglo American plc in the Killero area.

The Company´s target areas lie adjacent to the Sirkka thrust zone, a well-mineralized structural corridor in the Central Lapland Greenstone Belt which hosts a number of recent exploration discoveries. The granted exploration permits allow the Company to undertake more detailed field evaluations - including ground geophysical surveys and diamond drilling - within the individual target areas.
