Midland Exploration Updates its Progress on the Gatineau Zinc Project

Here is a West Quebec update from an April 14, 2011, news release issued by Midland Exploration:

Gatineau Zn Project - Optioned to Zincore Metals Inc. ("Zincore")

An important drilling campaign totalling about 2,000 metres in ten (10) holes is currently underway on the Gatineau Zn Project in partnership with Zincore. Targets to be tested mainly consist of airborne VTEM anomalies located near the Bouchette, Leitch, and Lafontaine zinc prospects. Channel sampling performed last fall in two trenches on the Leitch and Lafontaine deposits respectively returned grades of 24.1% zinc over 3.0 metres, including 32.5% zinc over 2.0 metres, and 21.0% zinc over 2.0 metres.

The Gatineau Zn Project is in the first year of an option agreement with Zincore, whereby Zincore may earn 50% interest by spending a total of $3,500,000 in exploration expenditures over four years and making payment totalling $180,000.

We are a community group that works to protect our human, environmental, and economic health from the risks associated with uranium. Our goal is to obtain a permanent moratorium on uranium exploration, mining, and processing in MRC du Pontiac and MRC des Collines de l'Outaouais. To meet this goal our group advocates, educates, and builds coalitions.
