Canterra Provides Update on South Slave Properties

02.05.2016  |  Marketwired

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - May 2, 2016) - Canterra Minerals Corp. (TSX VENTURE:CTM) (the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on the Company's South Slave Properties in the Northwest Territories ("NT"). For additional information, please visit the Company's website: www.canterraminerals.com

Exploration:

The Company completed a till sampling program in 2015, designed to identify and further define potential drill targets. A total of 204 till samples were collected from the Prism, Gwen, Marlin and Rex properties. A total of 96 samples from Prism, Gwen and Marlin have undergone visual picking, while 108 samples from Rex are currently at the laboratory pending analysis.

Picking results from the Prism property has defined the up-ice cutoff of two separate kimberlite indicator mineral ("KIM") trains. The Prism property has at least three unique KIM trains in the northern, central and southern portions of the property. Planning is underway for a ground based geophysical survey over the prospective areas. Two new claims were staked contiguous to the Prism property in 2015 to cover a new KIM train in the northeastern portion of the property.

Picking results from Marlin have confirmed highly anomalous KIM's within the central portion of the property. The anomaly appears to be sourced from within the property and additional till sampling is planned to better define targets for future drilling.

Additionally, the Company completed a 60 line kilometre resistivity and magnetic susceptibility survey at the Hilltop property in February, expanding upon initial results obtained in 2015 (news release June 17, 2015); a review of the data is underway. Several targets have been defined on the Hilltop property for future drilling.

Work completed by the Company during the 2014 and 2015 exploration seasons meets the requirements to maintain the Company's priority land package for an additional year through assessment credits.

Corporate:

In addition, the Company announces the granting of incentive stock options to certain directors, officers and employees to purchase up to 1,820,000 common shares under the Company's incentive Stock Option Plan. The options will be granted for a period of five (5) years, commencing on May 2, 2016 exercisable at a price of $0.08 per share.
