CAMPBELL'S <CCH> MESTON LAKE SETS GOLD TARGETS
<Meston Lake Resources Inc>, 65.3 pct
owned by Campbell Resources Inc, said it will begin commercial
output at its Joe Mann mine in the Chibougamu area of Quebec at
an initial daily rate of 500 short tons of ore grading 0.15
ounce of gold per ton.
    It said it will improve throughput to 700 tons a day at
0.221 ounce of gold per ton.
    Meston said current ore reserves at the property total
910,000 tons grading 0.211 ounces of gold per ton and 0.3 pct
copper, but it may be able to develop "substantially greater
tonnage."
  
    Meston said underground drilling below current developed
reserves has intersected the main zone 200 feet below the
bottom level, with the average grade assayed at 0.530 ounce of
gold per ton over true width of 17 feet.
    A recent drillhole, east of the current shaft and 600 feet
from the reserve boundary, intersected three zones grading,
respectively, 0.708 ounce per ton over 5.4 feet at depth of 650
feet, 0.706 ounce over seven feet at depth of 765 feet and
0.418 ounce over one foot at depth of 1,000 feet. A second
surface hole, 500 feet farther east, intersected 1.068 ounce
per ton over 5.3 feet.
