Shear Minerals: Diamonds Are Forever»

Canadian diamond exploration company Shear Minerals Ltd. announced today that the exploration programs have started on two of its diamond projects in the Northwest Territories.
The exploration programs have been designed to drill-test kimberlite targets that were identified in detailed airborne electromagnetic (EM) data. Each of the targets slated for drilling has been or will be surveyed with ground EM instruments to ensure that the character of the anomaly is consistent with known kimberlites.
EM has played an important role in the discovery of economic kimberlites in the Lac de Gras area. The EM anomalies on Shear's projects are similar to those associated with kimberlites elsewhere in the region.
