THEMAC Resources Group Limited Announces a 56% Increase in Recently Updated Measured & Indicated Resource Estimate

THEMAC Resources Group Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:MAC)

today announced the completion of an updated National Instrument 43-101 (NI 43-101) resource estimate of its 100% owned Copper Flat project located in Sierra County, New Mexico, prepared by M3 Engineering & Technology Corporation (M3) and Independent Mining Company (IMC), both located in Tucson, Arizona.

The recently completed resource estimate reflects the results of a previously announced drilling completed in 2010 and 2011; the re-assay of 2,969 historical pulps to obtain gold and silver values and continued geotechnical and engineering design studies.

Highlights

  • The total Measured and Indicated Resource increased by 56% to 1,005,891,000 pounds of contained copper from the previously reported 645,000,000 pounds of contained copper.
  • The total Resource (indicated and inferred) of 153,000 Ktons, of which 107,000 was indicated, that was reported in the 2010 Preliminary Economic Analysis (PEA) has been increased to 202,303 Ktons of which 194,097 Ktons is now measured and indicated resources.
  • Only 8,206 Ktons remain classified as Inferred Resources.
  • The re-analysis of 2,969 pulps of historical drill samples has permitted IMC to factor both gold and silver values into approximately half of the current resource model. As a result, additional re-assaying of historical pulps is planned with the intent to increase contained gold and silver.
