Diamonds North's Corporate Update
=======================================================================
VANCOUVER, January 21st , 2009 - Diamonds North Resources Ltd. (TSX-V:
DDN) provides a corporate update on the processing status of the
mini-bulk samples from the Tuktu and Qavvik kimberlites on the
Company's 100% owned Amaruk project, plus upcoming corporate
presentations and launch of new website.
Mini-bulk Sample: All bulk samples from Qavvik and Tuktu kimberlites
have undergone two separate consecutive passes through the dense media
separation (DMS) plant. The initial pass was performed after a primary
6 millimetre crush using a cone crusher. The second DMS pass was
performed on the tailings from the first pass after being crushed to 3
millimetres using a high pressure grinder roller. Both concentrates
were sealed in separate and secure containers prior to shipping to
Saskatchewan Research Council Laboratory (SRC) in Saskatoon where the
concentrates will be further concentrated for picking using a grease
table. The DMS concentrates began the grease table process on January
20th which is expected to be completed within a week. No picking has
started on any of the samples, but will commence immediately after
grease tabling.
