Strongbow's 100% owned Starfish property is comprised of 9 mineral claims (8,864 hectares) in three blocks located 40 km southwest of the Diavik Diamond Mine on Lac de Gras. Stronoway Diamond Corporation currently has an option to earn a 51% interest in the property. The claims were originally acquired to cover distinct target areas identified as a result of a review of past exploration reported by earlier workers. Strongbow has conducted three exploration programs on the property, including limited till sampling in the summers of 2002 and 2003 and a spring 2003 detailed helicopterborne electromagnetic/magnetic geophysical survey. Kimberlite indicator mineral counts for till samples collected in the area are generally low, typically less than 10 grains. However the complete suite of indicator minerals is present, including purple (pyrope) and orange (eclogitic) garnet, chrome diopside, chromite, ilmenite and olivine. Further, results of the airborne geophysical survey indicate that several of the targets that the claims were intended to cover are of sufficient interest to warrant drill testing. A drill program conducted by Stornoway in spring 2004 failed to intersect kimberlite.
