Teck Corp.
profits double

VANCOUVER (CP) —
Teck Corp. of Vancouver
says its profits for the first
six months of its fiscal year
more than doubled over the
same period last year.

Net income for the first
two quarters of this year
totalled $31.6 million or 39

$13.2 million or 12 cents a
share in the same period last
year. Revenues increased to
$112 million from $95 million.

For the quarter ended
March 31, profit amounted to
$14.5 million or 18 cents a
share, up from $6.7 million or
six cents a share in the 1987
quarter. Revenues totalled
$57 million, compared with
$47 million last year.

The Vancouver mining
company attributed the rise
in earnings to the David Bell
Mine at Hemlo, Ont., where
gold production for the year
so far is 89,000 ounces, nearly
double the same period last
year, and to higher copper
and zine prices.

Meanwhile, Cominco Ltd.'s
year-old subsidiary, Cominco
Resources International Ltd,
lost $2.1 million or seven
cents a share in the first
quarter of 1988. There were
no comparable figures for the
previous year.

Cominco Resources was
formed by a stock offering
last year to exploit some of
Cominco's more promising
international prospects.

The company earned $2.5
million from its 76-per-cent
share of the Buckhorn gold
mine in Nevada. Gold pro-
duction was reduced by poor
winter weather and by treat-
ment of lower grade ore.

The company reported ex-
ploration expenditures of
$3.1 million on gold and base
metal projects, $1.8 million of
it in the U.S. Other explor.
ation took place in Turkey,
Europe and Latin America.

Cominco Resources’ net
cash on hand dropped by $3.1
million to $32.2 million, the
company said in a release.

Big prizes offered

Sunfest weekend preparations are in full swing with
the announcement Monday night that there are
numerous prizes to be won. Following Sunfest on June 6,
draws will be made for a trip for two to Australia, a
three-minute shopping spree at Safeway and a variety of
stuffed Australian animals. Other prizes include a
collection of Australian souveniers.

Seven-thousand lottery buttons will be available by
mid-May at a cost of $3 each. The buttons make the
wearer eligible for winning the prizes following the
festival, which runs June 3 - 5.

As well, the Sunfest organizers have introduced a
new official souvenier program which will include a list of
events, the parade route and many other pieces of
information on the festival. The program will also be used
in a draw at Kinsmen Park to win a variety of Sunfest
Australian souveniers.

Fundraising is currently good says Jim Ferrier of the
Castlegar Festial Sociéty, which orgafiizes the*annual
summer celebration.

“Support for Sunfest '88 has been tremendous, and
we're looking forward to even more donations in the near
future,” Ferrier said.

The Festival Society has set up a new Patron
Package to recognize individuals and companies which
have donated generously to Sunfest. There are four
levels of recognition including gold, silver, bronze and
supporter levels.

“By adopting this program, we're hoping to show
these people how much we really do appreciate their
help,” Ferrier said

During the festival 3rd Street will be closed between
Columbia and 11th Avenue to make room for the street
entertainment. A, stage will be set up behind Ely's
Boutique and bleachers will be available in the street.

However, organizers are looking for more per.
formers.

“We still need some more musicians, singers and
comedians who want to entertain us... . just for the joy of
performing,” says events chairman Joy Jenner

A stage will be available with a sound system and
entertainers, comedians and bands will get a spot on the
stage on a first-come, first-served basis.

Sunday, June 5 will be “family activity day” at
Kinsmen Park.

Science World B.C. (previously B.C. Science Centre)
will be on provincial tour by then and’will be setting up a
number" of 15‘nilhute SH6Ws>Ghte’ pér hour:

The 16th Annual Canadian Frog Jumping Champ
ionship will also be held that day. In addition, various
children's games will be sponsored by the Downtown
Business Association, and it is hoped that the Lion's Club
will have their dunk tank.

“We're going to have even more fun events than last
year. The addition of Science World B.C. is a welcome
bonus, and I think a lot of people would have come out for
that alone,” says Jenner.
