Press Release
American Alliance Financial & Funding Group purchases its second Silica Mine and Mineral Rights in Canada.
Las Vegas, NV – December 20, 2007 – American Alliance Financial & Funding Group (AAFFG) announced today it has purchased an additional Mining site, known as Crow, but more formally known as Longworth, . a British Columbia property, and has secured further Silica and Gold mineral rights under placer claims for the Longworth Prospect in British Columbia, Canada.
The property itself consists of 166 claims with an ore body which is huge and continuous. The land area covered by the 166 claims is approximately 11,500 acres, and contains at some estimated 18,592,000,000 tons of quartz silica rock of 97.7% to 99.3% purity. A market value based on conservative estimate of decorative rock only at $100 equals $1.8 trillion. However, the valuation will increase significantly depending on the refinement of the silica from $7,500 per metric ton for powder to $7,500 per ounce for refined gel. “Due to the sheer size of the project and investment and market experience required, AAFFG was the clear choice to partner with Card JM Resources” said James W. Lewis, Chairman and CEO of Card.
In addition, the Assays and testing show an abundance of gold deposits from 600-800 feet in depth below the silica with inferred seven (7) million ounces with an estimated market value of $3.5 billion at $550 per ounce. This valuation includes only a fraction of the leases and will grow significantly once all Assays are completed for all leases. “The dynamics of processed silica with its over 700 commercial uses positions AAFFG in the forefront of technology and manufacturing industries for decades to come” stated Steve Cross, the President and CEO of AAFFG.
To date the partnership has invested $10 million into the project to support Assays, feasibility studies, and on-site infrastructure. AAFFG and Card plan to invest directly and through private placement offerings to fund the project to its full capacity. Other downstream initiatives such as transportation and refinery projects are also planned.
