Cannon Exploration (PINKSHEETS: CNEX) is pleased to announce that the company will be returning to the Queen Alexandra property sometime in late May to continue with the next stage of exploration.

The company has also engaged a new geophysics company to contract for the management of the next phase of exploration on the property. Currently the companies are in the process of reviewing data from the previous exploration programs, and will draw from the information to complete the plan for the spring/summer program. The move to a new partner for the exploration of the Queen Alexandra is based on the company's desire to become compliant with the NI 43 101 standards on a going forward basis.

The Ontario Geological Survey lists 55 companies that have active programs or properties staked for base metals, gold, uranium, molybdenum, and diamonds, in the Kenora District, which includes Dryden.

Many of the properties have had previous exploration and some extraction over the years, but the many juniors are back in there as mineral prices remain high.

The area's geology is structurally complex and much of what lies deep down is relatively untouched. In the Kenora area, compared to more established camps like Red Lake, there's only a few diamond drill holes that have penetrated down 1,000 feet. Many companies are referring to historical information (drill logs, prospecting/assessment reports, government surveys and records, production logs) in an effort to take some of the guesswork out of the search for metals in the area.

Champion Bear, Treasury Metals, Manitou Gold, MPH, Canadian Arrow, Tamaka Gold, to name a few, are some of the companies currently exploring for various mineral deposits in the Kenora and Dryden regions.

About Cannon: Cannon Exploration is positioning itself to emerge as a quality mineral resource Exploration Company in the North American mining industry, focusing primarily on properties located in preferred mining districts in Canada.
