Pacific Booker Minerals Inc. Announces Morrison Lake Dilution Capacity

Dec 12, 2012

Vancouver BC, December 12, 2012: The Company would like to provide some information on the dilution capacity of the Morrison Lake.
The Morrison Lake has a surface area of approximately 13.3 square kilometers, a mean depth of 21.6 meters and a maximum depth of 62.9 meters. The lake volume is 286 million cubic meters. The Morrison Lake drains via the Morrison River into Morrison Arm of Babine Lake.
The Morrison Lake is a dimictic lake, exhibiting four distinct “seasons”. The lake is strongly temperature stratified in “summer”, followed by “fall turnover”, a period of intense mixing induced by wind and penetrative convection. The lake exhibits weak reverse temperature stratification in
“winter”. During “spring freshet”, the lake turns over again until solar heating establishes summer stratification again. Most of the natural runoff into and outflow from the lake is during spring freshet.
