TORONTO - Halo Resources Ltd. (TSXV:HLO.V - News) says it has decided to relinquish its entire interest in the Duport gold property near Kenora, Ont., and record a $4 million write-down, before taxes.

Halo made the move after receiving notice that Hays Lake Gold Inc. had terminated its option to earn a further 24 per cent interst in the property, the company announced Thursday.

Hays had earned a 51 per cent interest in the property under a 2008 agreement with Halo, which had acquired a 100 per cent interest in 2005.

Halo said Thursday its share will revert to a previous owner, Sheridan Platinum Group.
