Silver Sands Resources Corp. announced the acquisition of the 6,400 hectare Corner Pocket copper-zinc-silver massive sulfide project, 25 km to the WNW of Corner Brook, Newfoundland. Corner Pocket is contiguous to the west, east and south of the York Harbour Metals Inc., massive sulfide project.

The contiguous York Harbour project of York Harbour Metals Inc.
