FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: May 23, 2007 PR07-12
CANYON RESOURCES’ URANIUM JOINT VENTURE TO CONTINUE DRILLING Golden, CO — Canyon Resources Corporation (AMEX:CAU), a Colorado-based mining company, is pleased to announce the continuation of uranium exploration drilling at its Converse-Sand Creek Joint Venture. New Horizon Uranium Corporation (TSX-V:NHU), operator of the joint venture, has advised Canyon that drilling will commence on or about June 4, 2007. The Converse-Sand Creek Joint Venture is operated by New Horizon on behalf of its joint venture partners, Canyon Resources Corporation and Energy Metals Corporation. (TSX:EMC; NYSE:EMU).
New Horizon earlier completed 14 drill holes consisting of 10,395 feet of rotary drilling on the Converse-Sand Creek Project, located near Douglas, Wyoming. New Horizon intends to drill an additional 16 rotary drill holes comprising approximately 11,200 feet to complete its earlier program in the “Scott Ranch" target area. The primary purpose of this drilling program is to establish resources leading to defined reserves. The ultimate objective of the Converse-Sand Creek Joint Venture is to determine the feasibility of an In-situ Recovery operation in the prolific White River Formation that extends eastward from Douglas into western Nebraska. Bill Wilson, President and COO of New Horizon, commented that “New Horizon is anxious to finish this round of drilling so that additional drilling can be planned for later this year that will aggressively advance this project." “We are very pleased to see a continuation of this program and are hopeful, based on the positive results of the initial round, for a favorable outcome," states James Hesketh, President and CEO, of Canyon Resources.
