VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / September 9, 2021 / Margaret Lake Diamonds Inc. ("MLD" or the "Company") (TSXV:DIA, Financial)(FKT:M85)(OTC PINK:DDIAF) is pleased to announce that Arctic Star has received diamond indictor mineral results and an interpretation of these from Chuck Fipke for the first hole into the Sequoia Kimberlite complex. The results demonstrate the existence of a number of indicator types that occur with diamonds and strongly suggest the presence of diamonds. Furthermore, indicator minerals of identical multi-element chemistry to those found as inclusions in large >50-carat diamonds worldwide are abundant. The indicators from different kimberlite types are starkly different. These observations are in agreement with the caustic diamond results, which show the different kimberlite types have different stone/kg counts and also hints at a coarse diamond distribution. Ultimately a bulk sample will be required to confirm the diamond distribution and this is the normal path of progress for diamond exploration. Prior to this, a drill program defining the volumes of the different kimberlite types and their caustic fusion diamond distribution is planned for spring 2022.
