Diamonds North Increases Kimberlite Tally to 29 on Amaruk
=======================================================================
News Release: 08-32
VANCOUVER, September 25th, 2008 - Diamonds North Resources Ltd. (TSX-V:
DDN) announces the discovery of seven new kimberlites in 2008 bringing
the total to 29 on its 100% owned Amaruk property in the Pelly Bay
Diamond District of Nunavut.
A total of 46 exploration drill holes were completed on the property
using the percussion drill. The percussion drill was also used for
testing magnetic and gravity anomalies around the 2008 bulk sample
targets. The percussion drill cuttings for each kimberlite will be
processed for diamonds. In addition, core samples were recovered from
one of the newly discovered kimberlites (Qavvik-7) in close proximity
to Qavvik-5 and 6.
Table of 2008 Kimberlite Discoveries
Kimberlite Drill Hole Inclination Kimberlite Sampled (Metres)
Tuktu-10 -75 degrees 87
Qavvik-7 Vertical 87
Qavvik-8 -75 degrees 82
Qavvik-9 Vertical 79
Qavvik-10 Vertical 72
Beluga-3 Vertical 75
CB-27 Vertical 78
Representative kimberlite samples from the percussion drill cuttings
will be analyzed for diamonds. Sizes of kimberlite occurrences have
not yet been determined.
Two additional ultramafic bodies were drilled. Their geophysical
signature is consistent with kimberlite; however, mineralogical and
textural characteristics of the rock require additional testing to
confirm the rocks as kimberlite prior to diamond processing.
Diamonds North has discovered 29 kimberlites to date on the Amaruk
property. Of the 22 analyzed kimberlites, more than 90% of the known
kimberlites are diamondiferous and 50% exhibit diamond counts that
require follow-up exploration. Hundreds of geophysical targets remain
to be tested on the property.
Bruce Kienlen (P.Geol) and Graham Gill (P. Geo) are Diamonds North's
qualified persons reviewing these projects. They are responsible for
the design and conduct of the exploration programs and the verification
and quality assurance of analytical results.
Diamonds North Resources is focused on discovering Canada's next
diamond mine. The Company is rapidly evolving and committed to building
long-term value through ongoing diamond discoveries.
