Mineral exploration in proposed nature reserve threatens the Shelburne Barrens and the Tobeatic Wilderness AreaMay 19, 2000Black Bull Resources Inc., under an option agreement with CAG Enterprises Ltd., has completed initial exploration for its Flintstone Rock kaolin-quartz project in southwestern Nova Scotia. The property lies along the Tobeatic Fault Zone, at the southern margin of the South Mountain Batholith. Work to date has included trenching, geophysical surveys (IP), diamond-drilling and sample testing. The company has completed 29 drillholes to date and reports that the target alteration zone varies from 100 to 200m in width, exceeds 100m in depth, and exceeds 1200m in strike length. Black Bull Resources is negotiating with international mining producers to establish partnerships to move into production.
