"RECENT SAMPLING HAS CONFIRMED THE POSSIBILITY OF FINDING ECONOMIC
GRADES OF PLATINUM AND PALLADIUM" NEW YORK, June 25
/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Diamond Discoveries International Corp.
(DMDD:OTCBB) is very pleased to announce that they have received
from GEOLOGICA Groupe - Conseil Inc. ("Geologica") a NI 43-101
Technical Report on their 100% owned Caribou property authored by
Alain-Jean Beauregard, P.Geo., OGQ, FGAC and Daniel Gaudreault, P.
Eng., OIQ, AEMQ, Thetford-Mines area in the province of Quebec
Canada. Eleven (11) deposits and showings are present on the
Caribou property (Montreal Mine, Caribou Mine, American Chrome
Deposit, American Chrome Jr., Finneth, Cesar, Dumais, Vaillancourt,
Gagne, Greenshields and Lambly-Nadeau/Victoria Mines). As stated in
the report from Geologica, these deposits and showings show good
potential for chromium, nickel and platinum mineralizations. More
than eleven (11) known chromite deposits and showings on DMDD's
property were recognized and defined. The report indicates that the
results of the past work are very interesting and significant for
DMDD since they not only confirm the presence of platinum and
palladium on the Caribou property, but also seem to show that PGE
mineralization is preferentially associated with the contact
between ultramafic and mafic units of the Thetford Mines Ophiolitic
Complex. More than 10 Km of favorable contact is present on the
Property. Large-scale mapping of this metalotect led to identifying
new PGE showings. Moreover, recent sampling on the Starchrome
property immediately south of the Caribou property, has confirmed
the possibility of finding economic grades of platinum and
palladium. In fact, a grab sample (sample SC-1) has revealed 15.93
g/t Pt-Pd and .427 ppm Rh. Previously, a channel sampling carried
out by Allican had revealed a total platinum-palladium values of
2.61 g/t, and 3.83 g/t and 4.66 g/t over widths of 4.7m. Geologica
recommends that an exploration program be undertaken on the Caribou
property. Geologica states that the character of the property is of
sufficient merit to justify the recommended program. The
recommended exploration program is divided into two (2) phases
where the second phase is conditional to the success of the first
phase. The estimated combined budget for phase 1 and 2 is
approximately two million dollars. Mr. Bertrand Brassard, P.Geo.,
M.Sc., Technical Advisor, a Qualified Person as defined by National
Instrument 43-101, supervised the preparation of the technical
information in this news release. About Diamond Discoveries
