THUNDER BAY, ON, April 26 /CNW/ - Benton Resources Corp. ("Benton" or the "Company") would like to provide a correction to the recent press release issued this morning. The gold (Au), platinum (Pt), and palladium (Pd) numbers for drill holes BO-07-23 to BO-07-25 inclusive stated the individual result in parts per billion (ppb) when they should have been stated in grams per tonne (gpt). However, the values for the total precious metals (TPM (equal sign) Au+Pt+Pd) were correctly listed in grams per tonne. The table below lists the corrected values for the three drill holes and Benton apologizes for any inconvenience this may have caused.
