[{"type":"text","content":"\n\n\n\nTORONTO, June 15 /CNW/ - Roxmark Mines Limited (TSXV - RMK) (CNQ - RMKL)\ntoday announced early and encouraging results from its drilling program in an\narea 700-912 metres east of the main shaft of the Northern Empire Mine near\nBeardmore, Ontario.\n\n\nThe 25-hole program is designed to define the extent of the Contact and\nPower Zones in a previously undeveloped area and to confirm the historical\nresources grading of 15g/t of gold (or 0.47 oz. Au/t for a total of\n30,780 ounces of gold) as determined in 1999 by Peter Bevan, a consulting\ngeologist. Drilling continues on the remaining holes and results to date\nconfirm the previous resource assessment.\n\n\n"These are early days in the drilling program, however, we are pleased\nthat results appear, at a minimum, to confirm the historical information,\nwhich was our goal," said Monir Younan, Roxmark President. "In addition, we\nhave discovered an additional zone...and our anticipation is that grading will\ncontinue to improve as the drill rig moves further west."\n\n\nResults shown below are incomplete, as infill sampling is required in\nsome places.\n\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n Hole From To Width Gold Infill Zone\nSection Number (m) (m) (m) g/tonne required intersected\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n912.5 07-24 65.20 65.48 0.28 4.63 Yes Power\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n 75.94 76.22 0.28 1.79 No Contact\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n900 07-23 33.60 34.05 0.45 2.40 Yes New Zone\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n 107.64 108.49 0.85 6.27 No Power\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n 122.50 122.59 0.09 0.08 No Contact\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n 07-22 63.70 64.30 0.60 3.22 Yes Power\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n 74.70 75.65 0.95 1.17 No Contact\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n887.5 07-21 62.80 63.30 0.50 2.81 Yes Power\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n 72.00 72.75 0.75 3.12 No Contact\n---------------------...
