HALO COMPLETES ACQUISITION OF ADDITIONAL
SHERRIDON MANITOBA PROPERTIES
VANCOUVER, BC, JANUARY 16, 2007 - MR. MARC CERNOVITCH, PRESIDENT AND CEO OF HALO
RESOURCES LTD. (TSX.V: HLO, OTC.BB:HLOSF, FSE:HLR) is pleased to announce that,
pursuant to the definitive purchase agreement between Halo Resources Ltd
("Halo") and Endowment Lakes (2002) Limited Partnership ("EL") signed December
3, 2006, Halo has completed its acquisition of a 100% interest in and to ten
(10) mineral claims (the "EL Claims") located in the Eagle's Nest Lake, Meat
Lake and QM Lake areas in the Sherridon area of Manitoba from EL.
The addition of these 10 claims will bring the Halo Sherridon property to 114
mineral dispositions with a total combined area of 20,876 hectares. The claims
are strategically located within the Sherridon dome structure and Meat Lake
basin structure respectively and represent significant examples of the mineral
potential within Halo's Sherridon VMS district. These properties will play an
important role in Halo's plans to explore for high-grade volcanogenic massive
sulphide deposits similar to those found in the nearby Snow Lake area of
Manitoba.
In consideration for its acquisition of a 100% interest in the EL Claims Halo
has paid $90,000 cash and issued 160,000 common shares. EL will hold a 1% NSR in
the EL Claims of which 1/2% can be purchased at any time by Halo for $500,000.
Halo has also acquired the right to acquire any rights acquired by EL in and to
any mining claims within a one (1) kilometer area from the perimeter boundaries
of the EL Claims.
HALO RESOURCES LTD.
Halo is a Canadian-based resource company focused on the acquisition of near
production base and precious base metal deposits. Currently the Company owns or
has an interest in 3 projects: Duport, which is an advanced stage gold project;
Red Lake, which is a gold exploration project, and the Sherridon project that
comprises a combination of mature and grassroots VMS copper, zinc and gold
exploration opportunities. The Company is operated by an experienced management
team and backed by a strong network of mining financiers. The Company's growth
strategy is to develop a diversified portfolio of advanced mining projects.
