Attention Business Editors:
Canadian Arrow Mines files positive Preliminary Economic Assessment Report for Kenbridge Nickel Project
SUDBURY, ON, Feb. 26 /CNW/ - Canadian Arrow Mines, Ltd. (CRO: TSX-V) (the
"Company") is pleased to report that it has filed on SEDAR, (www.sedar.com), a
positive Preliminary Economic Assessment Technical Report on its Kenbridge
Nickel Project. The report is also available on the Company's website.
Canadian Arrow had previously reported the Kenbridge Preliminary Economic
Assessment on January 21, 2008, stating;
- Total recoverable metal production of 71.2 million lbs of nickel and
49.6 million lbs of copper from a combined open pit and underground
mining operation;
- A pre-tax net present value of $CD 134M at a 7.5% discount rate and;
- An IRR of 33%.
The PEA Technical Report concludes that, "The Kenbridge project has a
highly promising resource which at base case nickel and copper prices would
provide Canadian Arrow with good financial returns and a relatively quick
payback (2.8 years) of the initial capital investment."
The report is co-authored by WMT Associates of Oakville, Ontario, P&E
Mining Consultants of Brampton, Ontario, Micon International Limited of
Toronto, Ontario, and SRK Consulting, (Canada), of Toronto, Ontario.
The PEA was carried out under the direction of The Company's Vice
President of Operations, Mr. Garett Macdonald, P.Eng, MBA, a qualified person
as defined by National Instrument 43-101. The information in this release was
prepared under the direction of Mr. R. Kim Tyler, P. Geo., President of the
Company, a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101.
Cautionary Statements
Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated
economic viability. The PEA co-authors are not aware of any known
environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-economic, marketing
or other relevant issues that could potentially affect this estimate of
mineral resources. The preliminary assessment includes inferred mineral
resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the
economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be
categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the
preliminary assessment will be realized.
