      Stornoway Announces Revised NI 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate for Renard Contained Carats More Than Tripled; Deposit Still Open

      VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Dec. 8, 2009) - Stornoway Diamond Corporation (TSX:SWY) is pleased to announce the completion of a revised National Instrument ("NI") 43-101 compliant mineral resource estimate for the Renard Diamond Project in North Central Quebec. The Renard Diamond Project, which includes the Renard kimberlite pipes and the Lynx-Hibou system of kimberlite dykes, is a 50:50 joint venture with SOQUEM INC. ("SOQUEM").

      The new estimate, prepared by Mr. D. Farrow, P.Geo. (BC) of Golder Associates Ltd. ("Golder") an independent consultancy, follows the completion of a very successful drill campaign at Renard during 2009, and draws upon revised geological models for each kimberlite body, a different grade estimation technique, and an updated diamond valuation by WWW International Diamond Consultants Ltd. Highlights are as follows:

      - A total Indicated Mineral Resource of 23.0 million carats, and a total Inferred Mineral Resource of 13.3 million carats, increases of 228% and 195% respectively over the previous estimates published in December 2008.

      - An Indicated Mineral Resource at Renard 2 of 18.0 million carats and an Inferred Mineral Resource of 6.4 million carats, increases of 557% and 313% over the previous estimates.

      - An Indicated Mineral Resource grade at Renard 2 of 103 carats per hundred tonnes ("cpht") and an Inferred Mineral Resource grade of 120 cpht, increases of 27% and 39% over the previous estimates.

      - A diamond valuation of US$117 per carat to be applied equally to each of the Renard 2, 3, 4 and 9 kimberlite pipes for resource estimation purposes.

      - New geological models demonstrating extensive upside in multiple kimberlite bodies.

      Matt Manson, President and CEO, commented: "Today's release confirms the Renard Diamond Project as a major undeveloped diamond resource with three essential components: a large, high grade core resource within the Renard 2 & 3 kimberlites contributing strong potential mining margins over a substantial, initial mine life; a large, lower grade resource in the Renard 4 & 9 kimberlites offering mine expansion potential, and; extensive exploration upside. This new resource estimate marks the culmination of a highly successful year at Renard which has significantly increased our understanding of the deposit model and the true scope of the project."

      Eira Thomas, Executive Chairman, commented: "Work in 2009 has transformed Renard into a world class diamond asset ideally situated in Quebec, Canada, the world's best mining jurisdiction, at the center of planned near-term infrastructure development. The latest resource work has outlined more than US$4 billion of contained resource value, with good potential to add additional resources thereafter. This pivotal study has now become the focus of an updated economic assessment which we expect to complete in the 1st quarter of 2010 as a precursor to an aggressive work program aimed at completing a final feasibility study as soon as possible."

      den Vergleich mit PGD(Peregrine) braucht Stornoway nicht zu fürchten - PGD hat ca. 18,5 Millionen Karat an nachgewiesenen Ressourcen

      SWY bisher schon 23 Mill. - und das Upsidepotential auf 50 Millionen Karat
      alle Erzkörper sind openpitminable, das spart Kosten und die Infrastrukur ist z.Z.schon vollständing vorhanden bzw. wird gerade gebaut

      bemerkenswert ist außerdem das sich DeBeer´s als größter Dimantenproduzent und Händler weltweit seit einiger Zeit für die kanadischen Lagerstätten interssiert - Warum? nun der Grund ist sehr einfach:
      die Förderung in Afrika, speziell Südafrika wird zunehmend schwieriger,kostspieliger und unsicherer - außerdem sind die meisten Minen fast ausgebeutet..........

      das wird wohl nach nebe Renard der nächste Pfeil im Köcher:

      The 476,000 acre Aviat Project is a joint venture with the Hunter Exploration Group (10%) under which Stornoway holds a 90% interest in the property (increased from 74.1% as per a May 15, 2008 press release), is the operator, and holds 100% of the diamond marketing rights.

      http://www.stornowaydiamonds.com/advanced/aviat/

      ".........Stornoway engaged SRK Consulting (Canada) Inc. ("SRK"), an independent consultant, to provide a conceptual resource study on the Eastern Sheet Complex. The results of which were announced on October 7, 2008, and outlined the potential for 24.1 to 40.3 million carats of diamonds in 12.4 to 16.0 million tonnes of kimberlite using a diamond content of 235 cpht +/- 30 cpht based on existing diamond data. A mini-bulk sample of 202 wet tonnes was extracted from the ES 1 in 2008 for DMS processing for the purpose of providing additional insight into the grade, diamond value and overall economic potential of this large scale, and growing, diamond camp. ......"

      mal was zu SWY aus dem Stockhouse:

      Renard 2: 700 m
      Renard 3, 4, 9: varies - but much shallower.

      I'll pull these numbers on depth tested:
      Indicated Inferred
      R 2 0 - 600 m .. 600 - 700 m
      R 3 0 - 250 m .. 250 - 395 m
      R 4 0 - 250 m .. 250 - 285 m
      R 9 n/a .. 0 - 380 m

      You should really see this visually. Pipes appear close together.
      Ramond James does have a report out (PDF) on Dec.09th. (I don't work for RJ - just found it useful).
      It has nice pics that helped me understand.. I tried to find same visual on SWY site - but cannot yet.

      HUGE POTENTIAL upside for deeper drilling on ALL pipes.
      With more pipes to go. Plus the dykes..

      From the RJames report: "SWY believes new resoure estimate could reasonably

      grow by another 12.2 to 26.5 Mct, or 33% to 72% (between 48.5 and 62.8

      Mct)."

      So 50 mm carats is hopefully still conservative.

      Cormark Report on Diamonds:)

      Surplus of information on Diamonds in General, and then Stornoway, Lucero as Buy targets and Peregrine added to watch list.
      Upside Potential, from estimated NAV of $1.09 a share are the following
      1. Good Potential to increase overall resource further. Renard 4 and 65 have the same geological history and has not been drilled at depths. This can add huge tonnage and grade.This would add to mine life from what will be reported in the 43-101
      2. Also upside potential from the Lynx and Hibou Dykes. These range 1-3 meters and run 5K. Limited testing done.
      3. Should the revised PEA and Feasibility meet Cormark expectations, the increase value of Renard could move to $1.60.
      4. Grades and Value may be understimated due to breakage. RC drill is known to cause diamond breakage, reducing grade by 15-38%. This again would increase the valuation by .12.

      Stornoway Files Renard "Notice of Intent"

      VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Feb. 12, 2010) - Stornoway Diamond Corporation (TSX:SWY - News) is pleased to announce the filing on February 11th, 2010 of a "Notice of Intent" for the Renard Diamond Project in North Central Quebec. The Notice of Intent is the first step in a mine permitting process that is expected to take between 18 and 24 months. The Renard Diamond Project, which includes the Renard kimberlite pipes and the Lynx-Hibou system of kimberlite dykes, is a 50:50 joint venture with SOQUEM INC. ("SOQUEM").

      The Notice of Intent has been filed with the provincial administrator of the James Bay and Northern Quebec Agreement (the "JBNQA"), representing the environmental protection regime under which the project falls, for review by the Comite d'evaluation ("COMEV"). The purpose of the Notice of Intent is to present the administrator with a description of the nature and scope of the project so as to allow her to provide a directive for a subsequent Social and Environmental Impact Assessment. In addition to the JBQNA, the project falls under the purview of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, requiring an equivalent federal assessment to be completed pursuant to the terms of the JBNQA. Once the provincial and federal administrators have issued authorizations for project development, final mine permits will be sought from the Quebec Ministere du Developpement durable, de l'Environnement et des Parcs, ("MDDEP"), the Ministere des Ressources Naturelles et de la Faune ("MRNF"), and all relevant federal authorities.

      The Notice of Intent describes a combined open pit and underground mining operation at Renard, with a production rate of between 5,000 and 7,000 tonnes per day (1.8 to 2.5 million tonnes per year) and a potential mine life of 25 years, based on the totality of mineral resources identified to date. Access to the project site will be by way of the "Route 167 Extension", an all-season road development project currently the subject of a full feasibility study under the auspices of the Ministere des Transports du Quebec ("MTQ").

      Next Steps

      A revised Preliminary Assessment of the Renard Diamond Project utilizing the recently updated mineral resource estimate (to view Stornoway press release dated December 8th, 2009 please click on: http://bit.ly/d3gYGE) is currently being prepared by Scott Wilson Roscoe Postle Associates Inc. This new study will incorporate a revised conceptual mine plan, updated capital and operating costs, and revised estimates of project economics. Results from the Preliminary Assessment are expected within the first quarter of 2010.

("Scott Wilson RPA"), a diamond processing plant design, with capital and operating cost estimates, prepared by AMEC Americas Limited ("AMEC"), and social, environmental and permitting aspects contributed by Stantec Experts-conseil limitee ("Stantec"). The conceptual mine plan is based upon a National Instrument ("NI") 43-101 compliant mineral resource estimate prepared by Golder Associates Ltd. and reported previously by Stornoway on December 8th, 2009.

      Highlights of the study, on a 100% project basis, are as follows:

      - Base case estimates of pre-tax Net Present Value ("NPV") and Internal Rate of Return ("IRR") at C$885 million (at an 8% discount rate) and 24.8% respectively using a September 2009 diamond valuation of US$117/carat and a US dollar exchange rate of C$1.11.

      - A conceptual mine life of 25 years based on a production rate of 1.8 million tonnes per year and a total diamond production of 30 million carats.

      - Pre-production capital cost of C$450 million, including contingencies, which increases to a total capital cost of C$511 million after sustaining capital and closure cost.

      - Average life of mine operating cost of C$39.45/tonne in a conceptual mine plan utilizing both open pit and underground mining.

      - Estimates of pre-tax NPV and IRR at C$1,173 million (at an 8% discount rate) and 29.7% respectively using current market assumptions for rough diamond pricing and the current US dollar exchange rate.

      President and CEO Matt Manson stated, "The updated preliminary assessment at Renard shows a dramatic increase in NPV compared to a year ago due to the recent threefold expansion in the project's resource base. The larger mine that this resource can now support has also allowed us to reduce our estimate of overall operating costs at the expense of a modestly higher capital cost. Considerable effort has been applied to defining these costs with a high degree of confidence. As a consequence, we see Renard as a project with the potential to deliver a robust mining margin over a very long mine life."

      Executive Chairman Eira Thomas stated, "This study has firmly established Renard as one of the best undeveloped diamond deposits in the world, well on track to becoming Quebec's first diamond mine. We now have a project with size, mining margin and significant upside potential in the resource. Our principal kimberlite body, Renard 2, is high grade and open at depth, and limited exploration drilling has been undertaken on the other kimberlites below 300 m. As we move the project towards full feasibility this year, we intend to continue exploring what is proving to be a major diamond deposit."

      Stornoway will host a conference call to answer questions on the updated Renard Preliminary Assessment on Monday, March 22, 2010 at 11am Eastern Standard Time. To participate in the call, dial 1-877-440-9795 within North America (local access 416-340-8530) or 800-9559-6849 internationally. A playback will be made available after the call by dialing 1-800-408-3053 (local access 416-695-5800) with the access code 1081742.

      Updated Preliminary Assessment

      In December 2008 Stornoway reported the results from an initial NI 43-101 compliant Preliminary Assessment of the Renard Diamond Project ("Technical Report on the Preliminary Assessment of the Renard Project", dated December 12, 2008, revised March 25, 2009), prepared by Agnico-Eagle Mines Limited ("Agnico") and AMEC, and reviewed by Scott Wilson RPA. Since this time, a highly successful drill program has resulted in a tripling of both the indicated and inferred resources at Renard, prompting an update to the earlier study. For this updated 2010 Preliminary Assessment, Scott Wilson RPA have redesigned the conceptual mine plan to best exploit the new, larger resource, and refreshed the capital and operating cost estimates. AMEC have also supplied updated cost estimates for a diamond processing plant design derived from the earlier study, but now expanded to a rated capacity of 5,000 tonnes per day

      STORNOWAY ANNOUNCES POSITIVE RENARD FEASIBILITY STUDY

      Stornoway Diamond Corp. has released the results of the feasibility study for the Renard diamond project located in north-central Quebec. The FS outlines a combined open-pit and underground mine plan, and was prepared by SNC Lavalin Inc. with contributions from AMEC Americas Ltd. for the design of the underground mine and diamond processing plant, and G Mining Services Inc. for open-pit mine design and cash flow analysis. Additional technical elements of the study have been written by Roche Ltd., Golder Associates Ltd. and Itasca Consulting Canada Inc. A mineral reserve has been declared by AMEC and G Mining based on the National Instrument 43-101-compliant mineral resource written by GeoStrat Consulting Inc. and published by Stornoway on Jan. 24, 2011, and a diamond valuation conducted by WWW International Diamond Consultants Ltd. and published by Stornoway on June 13, 2011. Highlights of the study are as follows:


      Base case estimates of net present value of $672-million at a 7-per-cent discount rate and internal rate of return of 18.7 per cent before taxes and mining duties, and $376-million and 14.9 per cent after taxes and mining duties;
      Probable mineral reserves of 18.0 million carats representing 23.0 million tonnes at an average grade of 78 carats per hundred tonnes, after allowance for mining dilution and ore recovery, and at a weighted average diamond valuation of $180 (U.S.) per carat;
      11-year reserve-based mine life with maximum diamond production peaking at 2.1 million carats per year, and averaging 1.7-million-carat-per-year life of mine;
      Gross revenue, in real terms, of $4.112-billion and operating cash flow of $2.677-billion;
      Initial estimated capital cost of $802-million, including contingencies;
      An estimated operating cost averaging $54.71 per tonne ($70.27 per carat) life of mine, and yielding an operating margin of 68 per cent.

      Matt Manson, president and chief executive officer, commented: "Today's announcement is a significant milestone on the road towards Quebec's first diamond mine. This feasibility study presents a project with strong cash flow, a low-risk operating profile and robust margins. Our estimates for each capital, operating and revenue parameter are blue chip and realistic. We foresee healthy project economics on the basis of the first 11 years of reserve-based mining alone. However, our long-term business plan, which forms the basis of our mine permitting, allows for a significantly longer mine life based on the project's total NI 43-101 mineral resources. Looking beyond the formal mineral resources, we have already identified a large quantity of exploration upside and each kimberlite is open at depth. As of today's release, Renard is a diamond project with a positive feasibility study, a long and highly accretive resource tail, and clear-path permitting in one of the world's best mining jurisdictions."
