Charles Fipke has been busy lately. Arctic Star Diamond Corp. - Projects - Wed Aug 18, 2004 www.arcticstardiamond.com/s/Projects.asp(Charles Fipke) Also in March, Arctic Star entered into a joint venture agreement to acquire a 20% interest, for Can. ... Kel-Ex is wholly owned by Charles Fipke NORTHERN ONTARIO - JV WITH KEL-EX DEVELOPMENT LTD. (Charles Fipke) Also in March, Arctic Star entered into a joint venture agreement to acquire a 20% interest, for Can. $300,000, with Kel-Ex Development Ltd. in properties in northern Ontario. Kel-Ex is wholly owned by Charles Fipke. Currently, the Company has 52 circular magnetic anomalies. These magnetic targets are situated adjacent to the Victor diamondiferous pipe field to a distance of 60 kilometers SSE along the pipe field trend. A till orientation and low density heavy mineral survey was completed within the claims area in the fall of 2001. The till orientation survey established that buried diamond-bearing kimberlites can be easily detected by pungar (auger) drill sampling of overlying clays, as well as heavy mineral processing in a unique manner at C.F. Minerals Research Laboratory in Kelowna, Canada. Tue Jul 23, 2002 EARNS INTEREST IN FIPKE PROPERTIES Arctic Star Diamond Corp. (the "Company") announces that it has made the payment of $600,000 to Metalex Ventures Ltd. (Charles Fipke) and has earned a 20% working interest in the diamond exploration properties held by Metalex in the Attawapiskat region of Northern Ontario, and by such payment has made its contribution towards the first year work program. An exploration program is currently underway on the properties. The Company has decided to focus on its Northern Ontario properties and will... NWT -- JV WITH KENNECOTT CANADA EXPLORATION March 29, 2004 Arctic Star Diamond Corp, ("Arctic") has signed the principal terms of an option agreement with Kennecott Canada Exploration Inc. ("Kennecott") that transfers Kennecott's wholly owned Credit Lake property, Kennecott's Slave Province Royalties and Kennecott's proprietary Slave Province database to Arctic. The Credit Lake Property is situated 60km west of the Diavik diamond mine and 40km south west of the Ekati diamond mine in the Lac de Gras region of the Northwest Territory. The property consists of a series of adjoining claims and measures approximately 40km by 15km.

Still looking for a link between Fipke and Stewart Blusson/R.Ross Blusson. I'm sure theres a company somewhere that ties them together, probably a Canadian company.

Still looking for a link between Fipke and Stewart Blusson/R.Ross Blusson. I'm sure theres a company somewhere that ties them together, probably a Canadian company. this is where the money's coming from....IMO: and here's the company connection of the Blusson's... ACS.V Board of Directors (don't really know anything about this company) Name Position C. Channing Buckland Director of the Board Ronald Ross Blusson Director of the Board Ross Owen Glanville Director of the Board Stewart L. Blusson Director of the Board Ronald Ross Blusson is the CEO of SGGM and on the board of directors of ACS (along with Stewart Blusson) Stewart Blusson and Charles Fipke were the two geologists who discovered the find that led to the Ekati mine Speculation now that Stewart Blusson was one of the mystery guests at the Saskatchewan meetings last month so here's the connections...Stewart Blusson and Charles Fipke were the two who discovered the Ekati mine ( a HUGE active diamond mine in the Northwest territories now worth BILLIONS and BILLIONS of dollars.) Ron Blusson - Stewarts brother? (I'm guessing) - is the CEO of SGGM......hmmmmmm......coincidence? Stewart Blusson and Fipke are both billionaires from the Ekati thing....no problem spitting out $10M to CMKX to help them along....there has always been speculation of some deep pockets - I think these are them....and these guys know the mining business up there. things are looking good

So theres the link between CMKX and Charles Fipke. This is excellent news, couldn't be better. Yes, and admittedly much of this connection was found by fastwalker on another thread on this board...I just used it to answer your question here and show the connection. just giving credit where credit is due. - fastwalker. - golf

Thu Mar 13, 2003 Another diamond play in the rough? TORONTO -- Geologist Charles Fipke sparked Canada's first great diamond rush in 1991 when he discovered what would become the rich Ekati Diamond Mine in the Northwest Territories. More than a decade later, there is speculation that Mr. Fipke has another blockbuster find in the works -- talk that has sent the share price of his exploration company soaring and that generated considerable buzz at this week's Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada convention, which ended yesterday.
And we know what this blockbuster find is!!!

TEXT Amazing Story. Crystallized serendipity Nature's brilliant-cut diamond. When you touch a diamond you are in contact with the origins of the Earth. Your touch is a locus where atomic essence, tremendous geological forces and persistent human effort coincide. The Canadian Museum of Nature received seven diamonds from the first diamond mine in Canada, in operation since late-1998. This invaluable addition to Nature's Earth Sciences Collection was a gift of the mine's owners and operators: BHP Diamonds Inc., Dia Met Minerals Ltd., Chuck E. Fipke and Dr. S. Blusson. Fipke and Blusson can also be credited with making the first discovery of an economically exploitable primary source of diamonds under Canadian soil. These two geological sleuths put their knowledge and tools to work to find the metaphorical needle-in-a-haystack (without even being sure that there was a needle, or even a haystack). But first, a complex of many other impossibly coincidental circumstances had to occur millions upon millions of years before. For starters, the diamonds had to form. Macle diamond crystal on crushed kimberlite. The needle: diamond crystals Most diamonds probably formed relatively soon after the formation of the Earth, during or shortly following the formation of the continents. Canada's diamonds formed under archons, which are thick and stable parts of the crust that are older than 2.5 billion years. Here, in the mantle 200 km or more beneath the (current) surface, a very particular balance of high pressure (about 5,520,000 kpa, or 800,000 psi) and high temperature (from 1100œC to 1482œC, or 2012œ to 2700œF) allowed diamond to crystallize from carbon. Diamond is made of carbon atoms that have been arranged in a very tightly bonded and compact structure. This structure is made possible by the unique characteristics of carbon atoms, combined with the extreme conditions of the location. While diamond can tolerate some impurities (like oxygen), and they are common, too much will prevent the mineral from forming. Also, changes in temperature or pressure can cause the atoms to reabsorb or realign, thereby 'disassembling' the diamonds. From the needle to the haystack...

TEXT GUYS: SOME INTERESTING CONNECTIONS Do you guys remember that Urban told everyone at one of the early races to read the book based on the real life story of Charles Fipke? I believe Urban also said he is a friend of Fipke and likes the guy. How's that fit with the following post I read on Pal Talk? ""Very interesting stuff - R. ROSS BLUSSON Chairman of SGGM is also on board of Archon Minerals Limited (ACS:TSX-V) with Stewart Blusson as President. . Stewart Blusson is the guy who teamed with Charles Fipke on Ekati Mine."" Thanks to the good people in Pal Talk. They do some awesome research. BIG BIG MONEY? INTERESTING CONNECTIONS:C.FIPKE,R.&S BLUSSON ekati.bhpbilliton.com/docs/EnvironmentalAssessment.pdfStewart Blusson and Charles Fipke were the two geologists who discovered the find that led to the Ekati mine
