COPAQUIRE MOLY-COPPER PORYPHYRY, CHILE CERRO MOLY CLARIFICATION

The company would like to clarify some apparent confusion respect to the actual size of the Cerro Moly target referred to in its most recent press release. The company would like to re-iterate that:

 

The holes drilled at Cerro Moly confirmed the grades and concentrically zoned molybdenum – copper system at Cerro Moly identified by Placer in their 1977 diamond drill program.

 

The target at Cerro Moly has not been reduced in size; in fact, it has been expanded to about 1.5 billion tonnes and is open to expansion to the northeast, southwest and at depth. The drilling has confirmed the molybdenum core on average grades in the order of 0.08 per cent (1.76lb per tonne) Mo.

 

The average grade of the molybdenum zone indicated by IPBX and Placer holes places Cerro Moly in the top 5% of known deposits of this type.

 

The hole drilled at Sulfato and five prior Cominco holes in the same area penetrate the copper zone and touch the copper-molydenum zone and suggest these two targets are part of the same huge system with total target in the range of 3 – 5 billion tonnes.

 

Please refer to our web site for further details. More information will be added shortly.
