FIRST HOLE COMPLETED–COPAQUIRE MOLY-COPPER PORYPHYRY,CHILE

The company is pleased to report that the first vertical hole was completed at the planned depth of 400 metres ( 1312 feet) and is visibly mineralized with molybdenite throughout its full length. The first 200 metres repeat a previously drilled vertical hole which averaged 0.11 per cent Mo (or 2.4lb per tonne Mo). The casing has been left in place to facilitate re-entry of the hole for possible deepening once assays have been received.

Hole number 2 has been collared at the same location oriented in a northerly direction at an angle of -50 degrees . This hole has encountered even stronger molybdenite mineralization from the top to its current depth of 200 metres ( 656 feet) and also hosts copper occurring as chalcopyrite and locally native copper. This hole will be pushed to 400 metres (1312 feet).

The core is in the process of being split and sent for assay.

Terry Walker MSc., P.Geo. is the qualified person under National Instrument 43-101 who is in charge of the program.
