Summer Exploration Program Details
Mosher Lake Property

Firesteel Resources Inc. announces the commencement of the exploration program on the Mosher Lake Gold Property, located 90 kilometres north of Yellowknife, NWT. This program will consist of geological mapping, soil and rock geochemistry, prospecting, trenching and re-logging of core from the recent drilling program.

The primary objective of this program will be to evaluate the belt of volcanic rocks in the northern part of the property. In this region, Drill Hole M97-17 intersected a thick, mineralized stockwork/shear zone with encouraging gold values. Particular attention will be devoted to evaluating a number of magnetic and electromagnetic anomalies which trend north from this drill hole for several kilometres. Detailed mapping and core re-logging will be performed to validate the concept of a steeply plunging thick bulge of high-grade mineralization.

The results of the summer program will be utilized to formulate the next stage of drilling planned for the winter season.
