KASALA DRILLING HIGHLIGHTS

Numerous intercepts with widths from 50 metres to 91 metres of mineralization

High grade intercepts:

  • 7 metres @ 7.07% Cu (Hole MDB-DD-019)
  • 10 metres @ 6.07% Cu (Hole MDB-DD-011B)
  • 11 metres @ 3.68% Cu (Hole MDB-027)
  • 21 metres @ 2.42% Cu (Hole MDB-026)

Results of a 4071 sample soil geochemical sampling program from the Kasala Copper Project in the Democratic Republic of the Cong. Kasala Block A was the subject of the Company's 2008 drill campaign. 35 Reverse Circulation drill holes totaling 3,336 meters and 15 diamond drill holes totaling 2,584 meters were completed on Kasala Block A leading to the discovery of significant copper mineralization. Although the Company has reduced the number of projects in the DRC, including thePhoenix Project, the Kasala Project continues to be the Company's main project.
