Ressources Dianor inc.
History
Dianor Resources Inc. was incorporated on July 20th 1987 under the name Kimex Resources Inc. and the initial focus of the company was gold and base metal exploration in Canada.
In 1993 the company (Kimex) was renamed Dianor Resources Inc. and under new Management and Board of Directors rapidly expanded its gold and base metal exploration to include mineral properties in Newfoundland, Quebec, Northwest Territories and Peru. Dianor continued to explore for gold and base metals until 2001.
In June 2001, Dianor announced the discovery of the first diamond in the James Bay region of Quebec. Diamond exploration in Quebec was in its infancy at this time and the discovery of diamonds in kimberlites in the Otish Mountains accelerated significantly the exploration for diamonds in the province. Dianor capitalized on its diamond discovery in James Bay by increasing its exploration portfolio through staking, joint ventures and partnerships.
Currently, the company is strategically positioned on the Superior Craton area in the James Bay, Otish Mountains, and Chibougamau regions of Quebec and in the New Liskeard, Kirkland Lake, Abitibi and Great Lakes regions of Ontario.
The Leadbetter Diamond Project, located north of the town of Wawa, Ontario, is Dianor’s most advanced project and flagship property. Active exploration commenced in April of 2005 and continues to date, to outline and define the economic potential of the property.
