(thirty four square kilometres.)\n\nAll of the subject area is within the prolific Walker Lane Belt Geological trend in Western Nevada. Over a\nbillion tons of copper ore with associated precious and industrial minerals have been produced from several\nmajor mines located along this trend.\n\nFurther geophysical work to determine the best locations for an initial ore drilling programme will be\ninitiated late this year, weather permitting.\n\nThe directors are pleased that the Competent Person's Report stated, inter-alia,\n\n * Bottle roll leaching tests to samples crushed to pass 1/4 (6mm) screen opening produced excellent\n extractions of copper, precious metals and uranium.\n\n * Geological and geophysical evidence suggests that the IWM claim group is very permissive for the\n discovery (of) a bulk-tonnage porphyry copper-molybdenum deposit of moderate depths. IWM claims \n refer to the majority of the North-Eastern area under claim.\n\nAn appendix to the original report has been commenced to examine the viability of a low cost heap leaching\nfacility to process the easy-to-access high grade copper-oxide deposits.\n\nTHE DIRECTORS OF THE ISSUER ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE CONTENTS OF THIS ANNOUNCEMENT.\n\n ---ENDS---\n\nCONTACT DETAILS:\n\nGreat Western Mining Corporation plc\nEmmett O'Connell Tel: +353 51 565844\n Fax: +353 51 565884\n email: [email protected]\n\nLiam McGrattan, Director Tel: 087 274 5427\n\nMelvyn Quiller, U.K. Director Tel:0771 289 9588\n\nSVS Securities Plc - PLUS Corporate Adviser\nPeter Ward / Alexander Brearley Tel: 020 7638 5600\n\nSVS Securities Plc - Broker\nIan Callaway / Alexander Mattey Tel: 020 7638 5600\n\nABOUT GREAT WESTERN MINING CORPORATION PLC\n\n1.
