Amur Minerals Corporation (“Amur” or the “Company”), an exploration and development resource company focused on Far East Russia, announces that it has completed logistical preparations and re-stocking at its Kun-Manie nickel copper sulphide project site located in Amur Oblast. In preparation for the 2011 exploration field season, the Company completed the construction of an ice road from its Gorney base camp on the Baikal Amur (BAM) rail system to the Kun-Manie project site.
Amur has defined a JORC Resource of over 340,000 tonnes of nickel and 95,000 tonnes of copper at Kun Manie. The exploration programme will focus on defining new drill targets located among and adjacent to the three deposits that presently contain drilled resources. The drill targets all lie within the area that the Company has defined for a mining licence. Reconnaissance exploration work indicates there is substantial potential to expand the resources.
