Jul 22, 2008 (A Wilson) - Gold values up to 0.12 oz/t over 5 feet in drill core was returned from New Walcoro Mines drilling. A 4 foot section of drill core returned 5.7% Cu and 0.02 oz/t gold from New Walcoro drill hole #4. Additional drilling returned values up to 0.12 oz/t gold over 5 feet. Mineralization consists of stringers of massive chalcopyrite and pyrite, up to 12 inches in width. Most stringers are east-trending. A 3 foot section of a drill hole completed in 1964 returned 7.48% Cu. Grab samples collected by Explorers Alliance in 2001 returned copper values up to 6.0% from grab samples and zinc values up to 2.5% Zn from grab samples.
