Opawica Explorations has reported the drill hole results from its 100% owned Atikwa Lake gold and copper project, Ontario, located about 60km northeast of Rainy River Resources.

The intercept in hole AT-10-24 is situated about 150m west and down dip from hole AT-10-01 and both holes have confirmed a zone of gold and copper mineralization of approximately 155m to 183m wide associated with the new Footwall Zone.

This mineralization is wide open on strike and to depth.

The hole AT-10-01 has been calculated using the 0.40g/t AuEq cut off for Atikwa Lake resources.

The company said that a further four holes are pending from the 2010 drill program.

In addition, a further 700 core samples are pending for 11 holes in the Footwall Zone from holes drilled between 2006 to 2010.
