) is pleased to announce the results from a resource estimate for the Damoti Lake gold project located about 200 kilometers north of Yellowknife, Northwest Territories Northwest Territories, territory (2001 pop. 37,360), 532,643 sq mi (1,379,028 sq km), NW Canada. The Northwest Territories lie W of Nunavut, N of lat. 60°N, and E of Yukon. .

Since acquiring an option on the Damoti Lake project in May, 2003, Anaconda has completed 4,191 m of drilling in 52 holes. These drill results were successful in delineating zones of high-grade gold mineralization Mineralization

 within the Horseshoe deposit.

The resources outlined in the Horseshoe zone are accessible via a decline ramp and two underground levels which were established by another company in the early 1990's.

At a cut-off of grade of 8.0 g/t Au, contained gold of 34,200 ounces are reported in the measured and indicated category in addition to 9,400 ounces of gold in the inferred category.

Average grade of the measured and indicated resource is 26.17 g/t gold and 16.38 g/t gold for the inferred resource.
The November 2005 resource estimate below (1) is calculated at a
cut-off grade of 8.0 g/t gold.

The resource calculation is based on US$400/oz gold, a $US0.80 Canadian dollar Noun 1. Canadian dollar - the basic unit of money in Canada; "the Canadian dollar has the image of loon on one side of the coin"

Grade capping for the purpose of this calculation was performed at 150 g/t gold for all zones. A total of 1,052 assays were constrained for the resource estimate, of which 21 or 2.0% were capped resulting in coefficients of variation for 1.0 metre composites ranging from 1.31 to 1.45.

Search ellipsoid ranges determined from variography were 12m down dip and 10m along strike. Most of the drilling was completed on approximate 5m centres, resulting in a large portion of the resource being classified as measured and indicated.

Modeling grade blocks were sized at 2.5m x 2.5m x 2.5m with variable percentage of domain inclusion so as to accurately represent model volumes.
