CMKM History In the Making Formerly Cyber Mark International Corp. (OTCBB:CMKI)--Chairman Urban Casavant announced today that there are approximately eight (8) acquisitions of which all conclusive there is 1.9 million acres of mining claims which have been secured by CMKI in the world famous kimberlite area in the province of Saskatchewan, Canada, known as Fort a la Corne.Chairman Casavant stated, "Our mining claims surround the approximate 58,000 acres of Kensington & De Beers. Recently De Beers purchased themselves back private, for a stock purchase price of 17+ Billion USD. It is a well known rumor in the area that De Beers tremendous expense of both time and money to go back private is a solid indication of the tremendous diamond wealth of the Fort a la Corne diamondnifrous kimberlites." Chairman Casavant continued by saying, "We have not assessed the "Real Value" of the 1.9 million acres currently under our control. It is also believed that De Beers may have mines on there smaller parcel valued as much as $40 Billion USD to $80 Billion USD. Although there are no guarantees that the companies mineral yields will produce any such amounts-the likelihood definitely exists." Chairman Casavant went on to say, "If these projections are even remotely close, which we have reason to believe may very well be the case, then with the massive land coverage we have spent the last several years to tie-up at considerable expense, it only makes a whole lot of sense that the mines which may be discovered on our much larger properties will be a real force to reckon within the world of Diamonds. The Fort a la Corne area could very well be the most important diamond discovery of the century. CMKI has strategically planned more staked acreage than any of it's surrounding competitors." "With regard to our existing board of directors," Chairman Casavant stated, "Make no mistake, we are currently interviewing worldwide notables to fill the remaining directors positions. In addition, we have commenced with organizing an executive board of directors in an effort to add credence and credibility to the existing board."
Chairman Casavant is also proud to announce the appointment of world renowned economist, Mr. Mike King to the Executive Board.********************************************* The new drilling rig will be used by the Company to test core samples in the diamondiferous kimberlite bodies evidencing the best software enhanced profiles. The core samples take anywhere from 3 to 5 drilling days to complete per hole depending upon set-up time and overburden thickness. The Company's claims are accessible by secondary roads but some rough-cut access routes will be necessary at more remote sites. The depth of drilling will vary depending on overburden thickness with 250 to 350 feet being the norm in order to intersect diamondiferous kimberlite pipes. The Company previously announced that it intended on beginning core sampling by 1Q03, but with the new drilling rig in the field scheduling can be accelerated. The core drilling will be in phases with 7 to 10 drill holes per month using one drilling rig with three shifts during a 24 hr. period. As additional drilling rigs become available, the Company will bring them on line with a Canadian Dollar drilling budget of $8,000,000.This is the first in many targeted acquisitions and roll-ups of existing diamond and other mineral resources companies. With a seasoned management team, high technology exploration methods that can better profile diamondiferous kimberlite pipes (both magnetic and non-magnetic), and on-line audit oversight of mining operations, Casavant Mining Kimberlite International is poised to take advantage of a consolidation of junior mining companies without losing focus on its core claims in Saskatchewan. Urban Casavant, Chairman stated "we are a new breed of prospectors and miners. With a quantum leap in technology, both hardware and software, we have the necessary tools to quickly and cost effectively evaluate mineral claims. The bottom line is to find diamonds and other precious metals at minimum cost against the world market price. We can do that and our fellow junior mining company executives know that creating for us the perfect opportunity to capitalize on what we know for the benefit of our shareholders." hmmmmmmmm ********************************************* Casavant Mining Kimberlite International Inc. (OTCBB:CMKI) announced today that Dr. Rupert A. I. Perrin M.D. had been appointed to the Board of Directors. Dr. Perrin was twice nominated for a Nobel Prize in science based on his development of specific methods of diagnosing various diseases in humans and animals. Dr. Perrin currently resides in Las Vegas, NV.********************************************* The delegation to Antwerp is scheduled to meet with various representatives in Europe to set the stage for the marketing of the "Casavant" diamond brand. The office will be operational by the 1Q03 showcasing the "Casavant" diamond brand to diamond cutters and wholesalers in Antwerp and throughout the world. The office will be working with some of the world's leading jewelry designers to create diamond pieces that are uniquely distinguishable as a "Casavant" diamond. I really can't wait till I read this in a PR again *********************************************

Casavant Mining Kimberlite International, Las Vegas (OTCBB:CMKM), management is pleased to announce that an exploration program aimed at identifying kimberlite targets on CMKM's mineral claims at Fort a la Corne, Saskatchewan has now been established. Dr. Mark Hutchison, Casavant Mining's senior project geologist, recently spent two weeks in the field delineating targets and liaising with ground crews and local facility providers. Management can report that suitable ground crews have now been retained by the company and are currently operational.
At this stage, priority has been given to a core block of approximately 192,315 acres of approximately 609,361 acres of CMKM's mineral claims which lie most contiguously with known diamondiferous kimberlites owned by other operators in the Fort a la Corne region. Although this is only a small percentage of this core block, within this land some 30 targets have been identified by Hutchison from regional aeromagnetic data provided by the Canadian Geological Survey and from low-level, high-resolution data collected by private enterprise using certain criteria known for locating kimberlite bodies. Amongst these targets, five locations have been identified as being of highest priority and will receive first attention initially from ground magnetic survey crews. This is the beginning of a series of reports expected by management from the initial review of data currently available and there is still further review necessary of new airborne aeromagnetic survey as it becomes available for locating targets in this entire core block of approximately 192,315 acres.
*********************************************
Casavant Mining Kimberlite International, Las Vegas (OTCBB: CMKM), has reached an agreement to the terms of an acquisition for the Snowden Kimberlite Pipe with Anglo Minerals Ltd. Claim S-133707 (Section 5, Twp 52, Rge 18, W2). This claim is one of many targeted by Casavant Mining, and Claim S-133707 is currently surrounded by Commando/Buckshot Holdings which recently was acquired by Casavant Mining Kimberlite International.

LAS VEGAS, Jul 23, 2003 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Urban Casavant is pleased to announce that Casavant Mining Kimberlite International has approved a drilling permit application for the Fort a La Corne claims.
*********************************************
Casavant Mining Kimberlite International (Pink Sheets:CMKM) is pleased to report that progress continues to be made in developing the company's exploration interests by continuing work in the Fort a la Corne area and in its target area selection elsewhere in Canada.
Approximately 192,303 acres were successfully claimed by a numbered Saskatchewan company on behalf of the company which allows Casavant Mining mineral rights for two years for drilling and exploration.
{I am assuming we will see these renewed no doubt…time on that is nearing for Aug 2005}
"In the context of Canadian diamond geology, it is widely held that Fort a la Corne is likely to produce an economic kimberlite body which in terms of quantity of stones could easily match total Canadian production." Hutchison obtained numerous independent opinions from informed members of the research community supporting CMKI's strategy of target selection by Geotem technology. Although analysis of Geotem data has not been completed, initial indications from surveys flown over CMKI claims are proving promising. Hutchison also was given the opportunity to examine core samples material from diamondiferous kimberlites obtained by DeBeers and other third-party operators from targets nearby and next to CMKI claims. CMKI is now in a position of heightened confidence in the ability to interpret forthcoming core from its own claims in what are expected to be unusual and interesting kimberlites.
*********************************************
This dividend is to reward the shareholders for their continued support for Casavant Mining. The company has made this dividend available because of escalated developments in the Fort a la Corne, including Kensington and DeBeers diamond fields.
*********************************************
Casavant Mining Kimberlite International (symb=CMKM) is pleased to announce that a contract for $3,000,000 has been negotiated and signed with Durama Enterprises Limited with work to begin immediately.
The Company also has zinc claims that include the original George Lake zinc deposit (also known as Brakewell Lake). The George Lake area has had numerous diamond drilling, airborne electro magnetic surveying, geological, magnetometor, surficial geology and soil sample surveys conducted on these claims, from the late 1960's, to the early 1990's, after diamond drilling was completed in 1969 to 1970, an ore reserve calculation was released and recorded on Saskatchewan mineral deposit index #0663 of the Saskatchewan industry and resources website. The ore reserve was stated and estimated to be 5,000,000 tons of low grade reserves at 1% to 2.65% and 2,900,000 tons high grade reserves at 2% to 3.67%.
*********************************************
LAS VEGAS, Sep 3, 2003 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Casavant Mining Kimberlite International is pleased to announce the purchase of 25 mineral claims from North Sask Ventures Limited (a private company), approximately 10,912 acres in the Fort a la Corne area. After airborne magnetic surveys were conducted in the Fort a la Corne area, most of these claims were staked by previous claim holders, due to anomalies that were acquired from data taken from the airborne magnetic surveys. Two of the 25 claims are adjacent to known diamond-bearing property operated by Kensington (KRT), Cameco, DeBeers Joint Venture in Fort a la Corne. Claim #S-135017 is south of kimberlite body #152 and claim #S-15016 is north of kimberlite body #168 both which are operated by the joint venture. Claim #S-135018 is adjacent and north of Shore Gold's (SGF) Birch Lake kimberlite. The remaining mineral claims are strategically located and are currently surrounded by numerous other claims held by CMKI and other claim holders in the area.
********************************************
Due to recent developments of the company, several capital and equity investors have shown interest in Casavant Mining Kimberlite International. These investors represent a large number of fund managers and capital resources who are interested in making direct equity investments in public and private companies. A small scale exploration program had commenced, looking at the geochemistry of heavy mineral samples obtained from a very promising and poorly developed target area. While Casavant Mining continues to focus on Fort a la Corne, the Company was successful and completed negotiations for this acquisition of claims elsewhere in Canada. Details are expected to be announced shortly.
Durama has obtained and is authorized work permits which were issued by the Saskatchewan Environment approved for these 25 mineral claims and the previously announced 30 priority targets selected by senior project geologist, Dr. Mark Hutchison. These work permits are issued for line cutting and ground geophysics which include magnetic surveys, as well as gravity surveys. Seven targets of the first 55 selected have had ground magnetics completed by Durama on them.Work conditions remain favorable and continue on the Fort a la Corne claims and that the recent ground magnetic surveys completed on the 7 claims have located and verified anomalies, which were picked from a low level airborne, high resolution survey, completed in 1993. The claims have remained dormant for the last ten years, due to the lack of capital funding of the previous claim holders and the high expense of mining explorations and additional surveys needed to verify the anomalies before advancing to the next stage of diamond core sampling. To further confirm each of the priority anomalies from these ground magnetic surveys conducted, the initial results have indicated five of the seven targets, have been selected in which gravity data will be collected to assist in the evaluation. If the gravity survey is confirmed positive, the target will be drill-ready.
*********************************************
Casavant Mining Kimberlite International (Pink Sheets: CMKM) is pleased to announce that $900,000 in funding has been successfully negotiated with three publicly traded companies. The three publicly traded diamond and mineral exploration companies are currently involved in exploration at Fort a la Corne and have reached an agreement with CMKI. The $900,000 of funding shall be used for expenditures to further exploration and drilling efforts on targets already identified at the Fort a la Corne claims held by the company.
*********************************************

CMKM Diamonds, Inc., (Pink Sheets:CMKX) is pleased to announce it has reached an agreement with United Carina Resources Corp. (UCA) CDNX whereby CMKX can earn a 50 percent interest in recently acquired uranium properties in the Athabaska Basin area of northern Saskatchewan. The terms of the agreement call for CMKX to pay $100,000 dollars on signing and spend $500,000 on exploration during the first year. A further $100,000 is payable on the first anniversary and $750,000 dollars is to be spent during the second year of the deal.The properties consist of approximately 35,800 acres and are located in the Wollaston Lake - Hatchet Lake area of Saskatchewan. A substantial amount of exploration has been carried out on these properties in the past and United Carina Resources Corp. is undertaking a compilation of all the data available and will undertake fieldwork as soon as possible. Previous work on the claims outlined several conductive zones, which yielded assays in excess of 1% U3Oa. The properties are located 30 kilometers north and northeast of four known uranium deposits (Rabbit Lake, McLean Lake, Collins Bay, and Eagle Point). United Carina will be the operator of the project and Mr. Dave Billard of Saskatoon will be the Qualified Person for the project.The Wollaston area is one of the world's most prolific districts for rich uranium deposits. Two classifications of deposits are present: the unconformity-type and the basement-type. The unconformity deposits are related to the base of the Athabasca sandstone and usually occur at the contact of the Archean granitoid gneisses with the Aphebian meta sediments (e.g. Collins Bay, McClean Lake). Basement deposits are hosted solely in the meta sediments (e.g. Rabbit Lake, Eagle Point).All known deposits are related to the junction of north-easterly and northerly-trending faults, and have a close association with graphitic rocks. These deposits may be up to 1000 meters long, 100 meters wide, and less than 20 meters thick. The ore pods consist of a high-grade uranium ore. The deposits are surrounded by extensive alteration halos of chlorite, cericite, illite, and tourmaline. The majority of these deposits straddle the edge of the Athabasca sandstone and exhibit varying degrees of geophysical responses and radiometric signatures. The claim blocks held by United Carina Resources Corp. have many of the above geophysical characteristics and hence have good exploration potential for uranium.********************************************* Urban Casavant was interviewed for a CEO Webcast addressing shareholders and the investment community on the current and future prospects of the company. The webcast will be conducted by Evergreen Marketing Inc. and made available to the general public on The Green Baron Investors Society's Web site at www.TheGreenBaron.com beginning Monday, Oct. 18, 2004. ******************************************** CMKM Diamonds, Inc.
