03.07.2012  |  Marketwired
TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire - July 3, 2012) - Aquila Resources Inc. (TSX:AQA) (OTCQX:AQARF) (FRANKFURT:JM4A) ("Aquila" or the "Company") today announced it has been informed by joint venture partner Hudbay Minerals Inc. ("Hudbay") (TSX:HBM) (NYSE:HBM) that, due to other capital commitments on its key development projects and global economic conditions, it has decided to suspend its development activities at the Back Forty Project.

The Back Forty Project, located in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, is an advanced stage exploration project delineating a zinc and gold-rich volcanogenic massive sulphide deposit under a joint venture agreement between Aquila and Hudbay. Aquila owns a 49% interest in the project and Hudbay owns a 51% interest.

"Over the past several years we have made excellent progress advancing the Back Forty Project towards a producing mine," said Tom Quigley, Aquila's President and CEO. "In light of Hudbay's decision, we will evaluate a range of options and opportunities available to us to continue advancing the project and strengthening our position in the Great Lakes region. The Back Forty Project is in the final phases of permit preparation and remains a highly prospective development prospect with significant potential for additional growth, and we will work with Hudbay to consider strategic alternatives that are in the best interests of our shareholders, other stakeholders, and the Back Forty Project."

Hudbay has also advised Aquila that it is terminating the strategic exploration alliance between Hudbay and Aquila. Aquila will maintain 100% interest in the four strategic alliance properties currently under evaluation.
