[{"type":"text","content":"\n\n\n\nTORONTO, June 18 /CNW Telbec/ - Roxmark Mines Limited (TSXV - RMK) today\nannounced additional results from the diamond drilling program completed in\nMay on its Northern Empire Gold Mine property.\n\n\nThe program, which followed up on successful 2007 drilling at the\nNorthern Empire, intersected gold mineralization in every hole with high-grade\ngold mineralization encountered in several holes along the strike, confirming\nthe nature of gold in the zones. So far, the 2008 drilling program has covered\na strike length of 1,050 metres from section 5+75W to 4+75E, with 8,385 metres\ncompleted -- an increase of 35% over the original plan. The 77 drill holes\nintersected the Power and Contact Zones and, in several holes, the Iron\nFormation (I.F.), Foot Wall (F.W.) and Hanging Wall (H.W.) Zones were\nencountered as well. Follow-up drilling to delineate the zones will be carried\nout from existing underground workings.\n\n\nThe initial assessment of the program indicates a minimum of three\nimportant areas containing high-grade gold mineralization. The first extends\nbetween section 2+25E to 3+50E, the second from section 0+50E to 1+00E, and\nthe third from 3+75W to 5+75W. Results as high as 62.27 grams per tonne gold\n(g/t Au) (1.816 opt) over 1.1m and 137.00 g/t Au (4.000 opt) over 0.5m were\nencountered.\n\n\nSeveral assay results and infill samples are still awaited, but in\naddition to Roxmark's news release of May 21, 2008, the following are\nadditional significant assays received to date:\n\n\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nHole-ID Section From To Length Zone Au Au\n (m) (g/t) (opt)\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n08 - 47 2+25E 58.40 59.00 0.60 Power 31.80 0.927\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n 2+37.5E 55.80 56.10 0.30 H.W.
