Vancouver-based Genesis Metals Corp. (TSX-Venture: GIS) found its shares perking Thursday afternoon, following a report that the temporary suspension of mineral exploration activities in Quebec has been lifted.

Prior to the work stoppage, a total of 2,008 metres in eight holes of the planned ~2,500 metre Phase I program had been drilled, and a portion of the core was logged and sampled.
