*CAH-192 also intersected 89.9 to 99.1 or 9.2m of 104.45g silver (295-325@ 3.05opt) and 106.6 to 109.7 or 3.1m of 144.52g silver (350-360@ 4.2 opt). CAH-193 encountered 3.1m of 341.20g silver (9.92opt) from 108.2 to 111.3M. CAH-194 assayed 286.0g (8.35opt) silver for 7.6m from 111.1 to 118.9m; 102.58 (3.00opt) over 6.1m from 128.0 to 134.1m; and 275.90g silver (8.06opt) from 163.1 to 167.6 or 4.6m. CAH-208 intersected 1.5m of 382.5g silver (11.17opt) from 21.3 to 22.8m.
Results of this most recent round of drilling are very encouraging as the Company continues to test areas where little to no previous drill information exists resulting in the significant expansion of precious metal mineralization while the deposit remains completely open to the north, east and south. Drilling is scheduled to continue through the end of 2012 with the primary objective of substantially increasing the existing historic gold-silver mineralized footprint.
Assaying of the reverse circulation samples was conducted by Inspectorate Laboratory in Reno, Nevada. Drill samples were collected by Mr. Paul Stubble (project geologist), split on site, placed in sample bags and delivered to Inspectorate Laboratory in Reno, Nevada for analysis. In addition, blanks and certified standards have been inserted into the sample stream at random intervals for quality control purposes.
The Cahuilla Project is a large epithermal, paleo-hot springs system hosting multiple high grade veins that occur within an extensive body of disseminated gold-silver mineralization. For further information on the Cahuilla project refer to the NI 43-101 technical report entitled “Cahuilla Property 43-101 Technical Report,” dated October 25, 2007 prepared by Todd Wakefield, MAusIMM of AMEC E&C Services filed on Sedar on November 15, 2007.
