Surefire's Executive Director, Don Valentino commented "The high grade results returned from the recently completed sampling and mapping program have provided a strong catalyst to Surefire to proceed with the acquisition of the Kooline Project."

About Kooline

The Project, located 55km south of the Paulsen's Gold Mine, within the Ashburton Province, produced a total of 3,600t of lead and 950kg (30,546oz) of silver over an elevenyear period (1948 and 1959). Much of the historical production came from three mines: The Gift, Jane-Audrey and Bilrose, which lie within the tenure.
