The Acadian Mining Corporation has new resource estimates available regarding their 100 percent owned Getty Zinc-Lead deposit.  

The Getty deposit is located approximately 1,500 metres
west of Acadian’s Scotia Mine mill facility, and comprises potentially openpittable zinc-lead mineralization similar to that at Scotia Mine. Zinc-lead mineralization consists of disseminated to locally sub massive sphalerite and galena occurring within a dolomitized carbonate reef of the Lower
Carboniferous age Gays River Formation. The Getty deposit is one of a series of related zinc-lead mineralized reefs located west of the Scotia Mine Main and Northeast deposits. The Carroll’s Farm zinc-lead discovery and the Carroll’s Corner zinc-lead prospect located 1.5 km and 2.5 km, respectively,
west of the Getty deposit, are also an integral part of this series and are considered highly prospective targets warranting follow-up drill programs (News Release No. 33-07, December 4, 2007).
