Highlights of the assay results from the 107 Area/Black Skarn North zones include:

– 3.15m grading 11.6g Au/t, 64g Ag/t and 2.76% Cu in DDH 08KV1061 including 1.5m grading 19.5g Au/t, 109g Ag/t and 5.1% Cu

– 3.65m grading 6.2g Au/t and 0.51% Cu and 1.25m grading 16.0g Au/t and 0.15% Cu in DDH 08KV1067

– 19.25m grading 2.5g Au/t and 0.77% Cu in DDH 08KV1070 including 7.25m grading 4.0g Au/t and 1.06% Cu

Results From The In-Fill Drilling: Area 107 and Black Skarn North

The underground infill program continues to generate excellent results, most notably high grade Au and Cu values. Assays as received from a further six diamond drill holes from the in-fill drill program are summarized as follows:

(1) See Schedules A and B for Location. (2) % value gives estimate of True
Thicknesses. (3) 107W is Area 107 West and BSN is Black Skarn North

 

Thick skarn sections continue to be intersected in both the Central and East Areas of Black Skarn North; high grade gold intervals reflect the intersection of epithermal structures with the skarn.

Results From Area 208 Exploration Drilling

Results have also been received from the last hole (07VAL236) drilled on the eastward extension of Area 208. The hole intersected several oxidized and silicified zones, being characterized by jasperoid, jasperoid breccias and silicified dolomites, which generally host gold. Resources for Area 208 are currently included in those determined for the East Breccia, which appears to be a northern extension of Area 208. Results from 07VAL236 are listed below:

(1) True Thickness cannot be realistically estimated without further drill
confirmation.

 

These results indicate a multiplicity of gold bearing zones and at least two stages of mineralization, one leading to very high copper values, within Area 208; this is the first time that copper sulphides were observed in this area. Additional drilling will be required to determine the continuity of these zones and the total potential of Area 208 and the East Breccia zone; further drilling of these two zones has been deferred until the in-fill program is completed in July.

The drill program is being supervised by Mr. Santiago Gonzalez-Nistral, Kinbauri Espana’s senior geologist, with quality control being provided by Dr. C. F. Gleeson, P. Eng., Kinbauri’s Vice-President of Exploration: both are qualified persons as defined by N.I. 43-101. Details of Kinbauri’s Assay and Quality Assurance Programs are reported in press release of February 27th, 2008.
