) and New Indigo Resources Inc. are pleased to release a further progress report on work so far completed on the JD/OD-1 kimberlite pipe, the first of two diamondiferous kimberlite pipes recently discovered on the JD/OD claim blocks. The JD/OD claim blocks are a component of Lytton's and New Indigo's jointly-held 9 million acre property in the Northwest Territories of Canada.

Caustic dissolution of the core from the original discovery hole JD-014 from the JD/OD-1 pipe has yielded the following results:

The quality of the stones has remained consistently high, with more than 80% described as clear and of gem quality.

A total of seven delineation holes have been drilled into the kimberlite pipe to date. Drill core from these holes is being logged and prepared for processing, and these results will also be released when available.

As a consequence of the favourable results obtained to date from the analysis of this pipe, a 400 tonne bulk sample of the pipe is now being planned for the summer months. It is expected that this bulk sample can be carried out in a relatively economical fashion due to the location of the pipe and the fact that it is entirely land-based.

Drill testing of additional kimberlite targets within the same pipe cluster will continue. In addition, five new mineral dispersion trains have recently been defined revealing the presence of what is believed to be a separate pipe cluster a short distance away.

 analysis of these new trains strongly suggests that their sources are diamondiferous, and they will be drill tested as soon as time allows.
