(BXX - TSX Venture, BXXRF - OTCBB_Pink_Sheets), is very pleased to provide its shareholders with an update of drilling and geophysical activities on the Boss copper-gold porphyry project located in the Goodsprings Mining District.  The helicopter-supported diamond drill hole (\"DDH\") DDH-06-2011 to test the copper-gold mineralization exposed on surface in the Boss extension skarn has commenced, and a QuantecTITAN-24 DCIP and MT DEEP IMAGING Survey (the Survey\") is underway to better define three interpreted intrusives located west of the visible oxide copper mineralization intersected in DDH-05-2011.Highlights of recent activities are as follows:Highlights:a) DDH-05-2011 intersected six intervals of visible oxide copper mineralization (malachite) with four of the intervals occurring between the core length of 395m and 414mb) Three intervals of very fine-grained dark grey metallic sulphide mineralization occurs within the core lengths from 371m to 373m, from 527m to 529m and from 534.5m to 537.4m,c) A recently completed QEMSCAN study shows that both the porphyritic and basic intrusive rocks are slightly mineralized and exhibit extensive carbonatisation, seriticitisation, and kaolinisation, andd) The QEMSCAN study showed that many of the marble samples contain significant copper (and locally cobalt) mineralization as well as trace phases including mercury silver sulphides, silver tellurides and gold.Boxxer's President and CEO, Elmer B. Stewart, commented, \"The results from DDH-05-2011 are very encouraging. This hole contains the most mineralization and alteration encountered to date in the current drilling program.  The widespread alteration and multiple intervals of visible oxide copper mineralization intersected in DDH-05-2011 compared to DDH-04-2011 would suggest a source of the copper to the north toward a coincident chargeability and MT anomaly which is interpreted to represent an intrusive.  The intersection of porphyritic dikes and multiple intervals of visible copper in DDH-04-2011 and DDH-05-2011 supports the potential for Boxxer's exploration target* on the Boss project of a porphyry copper-gold deposit ...
