WINNIPEG, MANITOBA--(Marketwire - March 22, 2011) - Wildcat Exploration Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:WEL) is pleased to announce that it has regained management control of its Poundmaker property, previously under option to StrikePoint Gold Inc. StrikePoint has confirmed that it has not fulfilled the conditions required to continue earning an interest in the property beyond March 1, 2011 and has notified Wildcat management of its intention to terminate the option agreement with Wildcat.
The property is comprised of 72 claims covering 12,176 ha in the Saxton Lake area of the Rice Lake greenstone belt, west of Bissett, Manitoba. Its eastern boundary is approximately 5 km west of the Rice Lake mine site operated by San Gold Corporation, and the property extends west for a distance of 23 kilometres, straddling the Wanipigow fault, the dominant geological feature of the Rice Lake Gold Belt.
The property hosts several gold occurrences and historical workings, some of which have been sampled and drill tested by Wildcat prior to the granting of the option to StrikePoint. The property is interpreted to be underlain by favourable rocks and structures that are along strike from known gold mineralization on the San Gold property.
Both companies are working cooperatively to transfer technical data and assessment work documentation arising from the StrikePoint exploration efforts. As it is received, Wildcat's geologists will incorporate the data into the next phase of exploration on the property.
