Dentonia Resources Ltd. and Horseshoe Gold Mining Inc.: Discovery of New Kimberlite, Lac De Gras, NWT
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--Dentonia Resources Ltd. (V-DTA) and Horseshoe Gold Mining Inc. (V-HSX), each having a 1/3 interest in DHK Diamonds Inc. ("DHK"), a private company, the current operator of DHK's Lac de Gras properties (WO claim block), have been advised by Archon Minerals Limited ("Archon"), the operator of the current exploration program, that to date, four targets have been drill tested, three with negative results, the fourth, however, with positive results.
The fourth target was located by a combination of Falcon data and interpretation of topographical features, and has resulted in the intersection of a NEW KIMBERLITE, crater facies.
The discovery drill hole was collared in granite, on a lake shore, drilled at a 47 degree dip angle, encountered crater facies kimberlite, over a length of 127 ft., from 157 ft. to 284 ft., and was still in kimberlite when stopped.
Due to the softness of the kimberlite, which exerted pressure on the drill rods of the heliportable rig, this hole was stopped in kimberlite at 284 ft. or 87 meters, and at vertical depth 210 ft or 64 meters. The gravity low associated with this kimberlite has a surface expression of 7.7 acres or 3.1 hectares.
This NEW KIMBERLITE is located in a bay of a lake, 2,100 meters or 6,900 ft. west south-west of kimberlites DO27 and DO18, and about 200 meters or 650 ft. north of DO29N, the latter was described as, "a multi-phased system which includes hypabyssal kimberlite dikes, pyroclastic (crater facies) kimberlite and heterolithic kimberlite breccias", and when last tested in 1998, yielded 12 micro-diamonds from an 82kg sample.
The drill core from this NEW KIMBERLITE appears to contain indicator minerals and is different in texture from DO29N. Sediment fragments and the texture of the core samples, appear to be similar to some of Ekati and Diavik pipes, suggesting emplacement during the Cretaceous period.
The topographic setting of this NEW KIMBERLITE would have impeded down ice dispersion patterns of kimberlite indicated minerals (KIM), emanating from this pipe, perhaps explaining its non-detection to date.
The current exploration program calls for drill testing up to nineteen targets, fifteen remain, with a minimum of one drill hole per target, before prioritizing these targets for further testing.
Currently, the drill rig is being moved to a new target.
The current interest holders are: DHK 55%, Archon 20%, Aber 15%, SouthernEra 10%, with Kennecott retaining a 1% gross overriding royalty. BHP has the right, in the event of a 200 tonne bulk sample of a new discovery, at its cost, to earn a 54.5% interest, to be contributed, pro rata, by the other interest holders.

ASHTON DISCOVERS A THIRD KIMBERLITE IN ALBERTA THIS WINTER
John S. Auston, President and CEO of Ashton Mining of Canada Inc. ("Ashton") reports the discovery of one new kimberlites in Alberta and summarizes the Alberta winter 2000 drill program.
The K252 kimberlite was discovered by drilling on the Buffalo Hills property during March, bringing to 35 the total number found by the joint venture to date. K252 is covered by 67 metres of overburden and located one kilometre northwest of the diamondiferous K6 kimberlite. The two distinct phases present in K252 are a fine to medium-grained volcaniclastic kimberlite, and a kimberlite breccia.
Elsewhere, approximately 4.1 metres of kimberlite beds interbedded with shale were intersected at anomaly 251, which is located 500 metres west of the K4 kimberlite. These beds may be related to the K4 eruption event.
During the Alberta winter program now completed:
- Three new kimberlites were discovered on the Buffalo Hills property: K8, K160, and K252. Microdiamond testing of samples from these kimberlites will be carried out at Ashton's laboratory in North Vancouver during the second quarter.
- In the K14 project area, approximately one tonne of drill core was collected from diamondiferous kimberlite BH225 discovered February 1999, and will be processed at Ashton’s dense media separation plant
- An iron-rich rock intersected at anomaly CM1 on the Caribou Mountains property, and reported on March 3, 2000, has been determined to be sedimentary in origin with no kimberlitic affinities. On the Rabbit Lake property, one magnetic anomaly was determined to be caused by magnetite in the sedimentary bedrock.
- On the Cadotte Lake option property, drilling on one anomaly revealed the source to be magnetic overburden. This property is 90 kilometres southwest of the K14 kimberlite and consists of two mineral permits totaling 5,120 hectares. In March an option agreement was entered into with
------------->>>Horseshoe Gold Mining Inc., Ridgeway Petroleum Corp. and Pure Gold Minerals Inc., whereby Ashton and Pure Gold have the right to acquire up to an 80 percent interest in the property by spending $1,075,000 on exploration. Ashton's interest in the property would be 72 percent upon fulfillment of the terms of the agreement.
The joint venturers on the Buffalo Hills, Caribou Mountains and Rabbit Lake properties and in the K14 project area are Ashton (ACA.TSE), Alberta Energy Company Ltd. (AEC.TSE) and Pure Gold Minerals Inc. (PUG.TSE). Currently, Ashton's interests in these properties are approximately 44.7 percent (Buffalo Hills and Rabbit Lake), 35.6 percent (Caribou Mountains) and 42.7 percent (K14 Project Area)
All exploration programs are operated by Ashton under the direction of Brooke Clements, Professional Geologist, who is Ashton's Vice President, Exploration.

Horseshoe Gold Mining Inc. 1202 – 1022 Nelson Street Vancouver, B.C., Canada V6E 4S7 ph 604 662-4480 facs. 604 685-0553 NEWS RELEASE February 16, 2004 Trading System: HSX – TSX (V) Fuego Project Optioned From Almaden Minerals Ltd. Horseshoe is pleased to announce that it has signed an agreement with Almanden Minerals Ltd. (Almaden) whereby Horseshoe would have the option to earn a 60% interest in the Almaden’s wholly owned Fuego gold silver project in Mexico. The terms of the agreement, which are subject to regulatory approval, require Horseshoe to spend US$2 Million exploring the Fuego project and issuing 1,000,000 common shares of Horseshoe to Almaden in order to earn a 50% interest in the property. This would include a firm commitment to spend US$200,000 by June 30, 2004 and issuing 200,000 shares of Horseshoe upon regulatory approval. Horseshoe has the option to acquire a further 10% interest in the property, for a total of 60%, by spending an additional US$1 Million on exploration. Upon earning a 60% interest in the property, Horseshoe would have 120 days to acquire Almaden’s remaining 40% interest in the property in return for a 40% interest is the issued capital of Horseshoe, to be issued by Horseshoe to Almaden at that time. The Fuego property is a high-level, classic quartz-adularia epithermal vein system. The textures identified, including fine grained silica and electrum banding and bladed calcite, are typical of that associated with bonanza grade epithermal vein systems worldwide. Some very limited surficial historic workings exist on one of several banded veins identified within a more than 20 meter wide zone of veining and silicification in volcanic rocks. Banded quartz- adularia veins within the vein system generally dip shallowly and are up to a least 5 meters wide. In the initial work the parallel vein system has been traced nearly a kilometer along strike. To date 16 grab and chip rock samples have been taken on the property by Almaden, of both banded quartz adularia vein material and silicified volcanic wall rock. Of these samples of banded quartz vein material averaged 7.7 grams per tonne (g/t) gold and 300 g/t Ag. with a high of 29.9 g/t gold and 764 g/t Ag. Samples from silicified volcanic rock within the zone of veining averaged 1 g/t gold and 162 g/t Ag. Samples from silicified volcanic rock within the zone of veining averaged 1 g/t gold and 162 g/t Ag. with a high of 2.4 g/t gold and 953 g/t Ag. Visible gold was recognized in several hand specimens collected on the property which were not sent for analysis. Mr. H.L. King, M.A., P.Geo., the independent qualified person on the project under the meaning of National Instrument 43-101, reviewed this sampling during a recent site visit. Seven one meter chip samples and one grab sample were taken by Mr. King of quartz-adularia veining and silicified wallrock. Analyses of these samples ranged from 0.14 g/t Au and 26 g/t Ag to 10 g/t Au and 381 g/t Au and averaged 4.6 g/t Au and 123 g/t Ag. This sampling included 3 continous 1 meter samples taken roughly across the dip of the accessible portion of an exposed vein, and averaged 7.8 g/t Au and 191 g/t Ag over 3 meters. The Fuego property has excellent infrastructure and represents an entirely unexplored epithermal vein system. Geologic mapping, geochemical rock and soil sampling and geophysical surveys are planned to define the extent of the vein system and the distribution of gold and silver. Fluid inclusion analyses were carried on several samples collected from exposed veins and confirmed the field interpretation that the veins are shallowly eroded. Analyses were carried out by ALS Chemex Laboratories of Vancouver. ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS “James E. McInnes”<br>_______________________ James E. McInnes, President The TSX Venture Exchange has not reviewed nor accepted responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of the contents of this news release which has been prepared by management.
