DELTA MINING
AND EXPLORATION CORP. VISITS HOMESTEAD PROPERTY IN PREPARATION OF WORK
PROGRAM
Lewisburg, KY.--
August 17, 2004— Representatives of Delta Mining and Exploration Corp.
(Delta) (OTC: DMXC) plan to visit the Homestead Kimberlite on August
20, 2004.
The financing
discussed on July 22, 2004 with the Platinum Equity Funding is
expected to close within the next two weeks. The interest in the
placement has been encouraging but the closing date has been altered
due to necessary legal work that is still to be completed.
In anticipation of
the successful financing with Platinum, the preliminary work necessary
to commence the work program for the Homestead Kimberlite is being
orchestrated. Tom Charlton, the newly appointed Montana
representative, and one of his associates will visit the property to
ensure all is in order so that no delays are encountered once the work
program is scheduled.
The Homestead
Kimerlite has already been shown to be diamondiferous and contain
encouraging concentrations of all the diamond indicator minerals.
This kimberlite and the surrounding area will be the focus of Delta’s
efforts in the first instance.
