Puddle Pond Resources Continues to Expand on Heritage Project and Management Team

Newfoundland based private mineral resource company Puddle Pond Resources Inc. is pleased to announce it has resumed fieldwork on its strategic Heritage Gold – Silver project located at tidewater on the Burin Peninsula, southern Newfoundland and where bonanza grades of gold & silver were first detected last year (ref. May 30, 2012 release).

The 2012 program of surface mapping, prospecting, geophysical surveying, trenching and rock sampling detailed an extensive gold and silver, silica-quartz vein mineralized alteration system over an area at least 4.5 kms x 2 kms and the first 5 drill holes completed in March 2013 all intersected the mineralized system (ref. March 1, 2013 release). These highly positive results reviewed by geologists from the Newfoundland Department of Natural Resources and the Department of Earth Sciences at Memorial University, St. John’s, NL are providing valuable information in directing the current work program.

To ensure continued exploration success at Heritage, the company is also very pleased to report it has increased the operational and technical capabilities of its management team. Dr. David F.
