Kesselrun Announces Drilling Results from Bluffpoint Project, Amendment to Bluffpoint Option Agreement and Vend In of Three New Projects

THUNDER BAY, ON, April 30, 2013 /CNW/ - Kesselrun Resources Ltd. (TSXV:KES) ("Kesselrun") today announced results from its diamond drilling program at its flagship Bluffpoint ("BP") project, an amendment to the BP option agreement as well as the addition of three new projects in Northwestern ON.


Bluffpoint Drilling Results

Twenty four drill holes for a total of 3,466 metres were completed in this initial drill program. Widespread gold mineralization was encountered throughout the target zone in a variably altered package of granitic rocks. Alteration including quartz, albite, chlorite, carbonate, hematite, magnetite and pyrite has been logged throughout all holes drilled to date.

Michael Thompson, P. Geo., President & CEO of Kesselrun, commented, "Initial results to date are very encouraging and have been instrumental in the ongoing development of the mineralization model for the project. Numerous untested targets remain and future exploration efforts are currently being evaluated in light of these results. We are well situated for continued development in 2013 with four projects now 100% owned by Kesselrun that are unconstrained by large exploration commitments."

BP Option Agreement Amendment & Addition of New Projects

The original option agreement to acquire the Bluffpoint project required further aggregate payments of $400,000 and the issuance 4,000,000 common shares of Kesselrun to earn a 100% interest in the project. The amended terms will have Kesselrun make a $200,000 payment and issue 2,000,000 common shares of Kesselrun to the vendor immediately to earn a 100% interest in the Bluffpoint project. For no further cost, Kesselrun will also be assigned a 100% interest in three additional projects located in Northwestern Ontario, the Esox, the Higbee Extension and the Mulcahy projects. The vendor will maintain a net smelter royalty of 2% (with Kesselrun retaining a buyback right of half or 1% for $1,000,000) on the three new projects. Michael Thompson, President & CEO of Kesselrun is the vendor of all of the projects.


Kesselrun's Portfolio of 100% Owned Projects

Bluffpoint - The Bluffpoint project consists of 103 mining claims covering 22,512 hectares in Northwestern Ontario's Wabigoon Subprovince, host to several recent gold discoveries such as Osisko's (TSX:OSK) Hammond Reef Project and Rainy River's (TSX:RR) Rainy River Project. Accessible year round by a network of well-maintained logging roads, Bluffpoint offers low cost exploration in an emerging prolific gold district.

Esox - The Esox project is located approximately 7 kilometres south of the Bluffpoint project and consists of 78 mining claims covering 14,350 hectares. The project has been explored by various companies since 1954, most recently in 2011/2012 by Armada Exploration Corp. Numerous gold, base metals and graphite targets exist on the project and remain untested (see Armada Exploration Corp. NI 43-101 Technical Report filed on SEDAR April 3, 2012).

Higbee Extension - The Higbee Extension project is located approximately 50 kilometres north of the Bluffpoint project and consists of 17 mining claims covering approximately 3,600 hectares. The primary target is granitic hosted gold located on strike from Manitou Gold's Higbee project where grab samples of up to 266 g/t Au have been encountered (Manitou Gold Inc. news release April 27, 2010)

Mulcahy - The Mulcahy project is located approximately 45 kilometres north of the Bluffpoint project and consists of 33 mining claims covering approximately 7,800 hectares. The project hosts numerous Nickel Copper Platinum Palladium targets explored by numerous companies in the past including Falconbridge Nickel. The project is located 12 kilometres on strike from Canadian Arrow Mines Ltd.'s Kenbridge Nickel Deposit with National Instrument 43-101 compliant resources of 7,139,000 tonnes grading 0.62%Ni, 0.33% Cu and 0.016% Co in a measured and indicated category as well as 118,000 tonnes grading 1.38% Ni, 0.88% Cu and 0.003% Co in inferred category (Canadian Arrow Mines Ltd. news release August 19, 2008).
