Millstream Mines Ltd. announces it is diamond drilling on its Kidston Property. Drill hole KDS 00-01 (75W, 300S, dip -50, Az 360) is targeted to test the south dipping downward extension of the favourable horizon.

The property consists of 3 claims located north of Millstream's Potter Property and regional geology indicates it may be situated on the northern limb of a syncline with the Potter situated on the southern limb. Recent geophysics showed chargeability and resistivity signatures associated with a target horizon generally characterized as hosting disseminated to massive sulphides. Diamond drilling done in the past on the property and abutting claims indicated a westerly trending mineralization dipping south. Previous past drill intersections, as reported by Granges Exploration Ltd., intersected 7.7% Copper in Hole 92-09 over a 0.6 meter downhole section and 3.33% Zinc in hole 92-08 over a 2.3 metre downhole section.

Millstream has an agreement with Orogrande Resources Inc. (CDN-X; ORG) in which ORG can earn a 49% interest (PR July 19, 2000).

The principal objective of Millstream Mines Ltd. is to enhance and develop known mineral properties to production potential.
