Shear Minerals Ltd. is a Canadian-based exploration company focused on diamond exploration in the Canadian North where it explores in established diamond districts and has discovered new ones since 2001. Shear currently has a portfolio of 10 diamond projects in Michigan, Alberta, Northwest Territories and Nunavut, eight of which are drill-ready. The company worked in 2009 to advance its 62.3 percent-owned Churchill Diamond, a venture it has taken from the conceptual grassroots stage to a top-ranked global diamond project with diamond rights to more than 760,000 acres in the Kivalliq region of Nunavut (41 percent of Canada’s kimberlites in 2007; 36 percent in 2008). Shear and 37.7 percent-partner Stornoway Diamonds Corp. inked a pact Aug. 10 with Kennecott Canada Exploration Inc. to jointly explore the 70,000-acre northern portions of the Churchill Diamond Project, now referred to as the Chesterfield Inlet Diamond Project.
