[{"type":"text","content":"\n\n\n\nVANCOUVER, June 16 /CNW/ - EurOmax Resources Limited (TSX-V: EOX) is\npleased to announce drilling results from three diamond drillholes at the\nIlovitza copper-gold-molybdenum project in Macedonia including 412 metres at\n0.51% copper equivalent. Drilling has now defined a 600 metres by 650 metres\nmineralized intrusive which remains open to the north, east and south.\n\n\nJohn Menzies, Chairman and CEO commented, "EurOmax is excited by these\n\n\nresults as they extend the limits, confirm the geometry and grade\n\n\ncontinuity of the granodiorite intrusion. A geophysical program is now\n\n\nplanned to focus on potential zones of higher grade within and adjacent\n\n\nto main intrusion and beneath the lithocap and breccias to the east and\n\n\nsouth which remain untested at depth. Ilovitza is situated along the\n\n\ncrest of a ridge, is close to sealed roads and 20 kilometres from rail,\n\n\n80 kilometres by rail to a deep water port and 350 kilometres by rail to\n\n\na smelter."\n\n\nAt Ilovitza a copper-gold-molybdenum porphyry has been mapped over an\narea of more than one square kilometre where a variably porphyritic dacite is\nintruded by a medium grained, strongly altered granodiorite. Alteration is\npredominantly phyllic with potassic alteration at depth in several holes. Vein\ndensities average approximately 40 veins per meter but are locally greater\nthan 150 veins per metre. Chalcocite dominates to around 200 metres vertical\ndepth with chalcopyrite and molybdenum to the bottom of most drill-holes.\n\n\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n Diamond Drillhole Results - Ilovica\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n Oxide Gold Intercepts\n\nDrill Depth from to interval Gold\nHole ID (m) (m) (m) (m) (g/t)\n------------------------------------------------\nEOIC 812 680 0 49 49 0.22\nEOIC 811 519 0 52 52 0.37\nEOIC 710 480 4 108 104 0.24\n\n\n Primary Copper-Gold-Moly Intercepts\n\nDrill from to interval Cu Au Mo CuEq\nHole ID (m) (m) (m) (%) (g/t) (%) (%)\n----------------------------------------------------------\nEOIC 812 49 465 416 0.24 0.28 0.005 0.51\nEOIC 811 52 519 467 0.20 0.27 0.004 0.43\nEOIC 710 108 480 372 0.20 0.22 0.006 0.45\n\n\nEurOmax has commissioned Broad Oak Associates of Toronto, Ontario, Canada\nto prepare a ...
