The American Exploration & Mining Association was joined by a coalition in filing a challenge last Friday in the Wyoming district court.
TORONTO, Aug. 17, 2012 /CNW/ – Wallbridge Mining Company Limited (TSX: WM, FWB: WC7) (“Wallbridge”) today announced that it has terminated its agreement with 4763 NWT Ltd., dated September 12, 2011, pursuant to which Wallbridge was granted the option to acquire a 100% interest of certain mineral claims located in Nunavut, Canada, by making payments and incurring exploration expenditures (see Wallbridge press release dated November 16, 2011).
