All of the holes reported here test the main\nUrumalqui Vein structure deeper at its southeastern end. Drilling shows that\nwhile the vein is narrow on surface (1 metre), it thickens with depth.\nSignificant vein intercepts from the current programme include:\n\n\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n Core\n length Silver Silver\nDrill From... & True Equi- Equi-\nHole to... width Silver Gold valent valent\nNumber (metres) (metres) (g/t) (g/t) (g/t) (oz/ton)\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nURU08-36 60.15-62.15 2.00 1.53 493.0 3.05 645.5 20.8\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nURU08-37 170.00-180.00 10.00 6.46 108.9 0.48 132.9 4.3\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nURU08-38 88.20-90.95 2.75 2.11 84.9 2.02 185.9 6.0\nIncluding 89.05-89.50 0.45 0.41 39.0 5.75\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nURU08-39 254.50-257.90 3.40 2.60 104.1 1.18 163.2 5.2\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nURU08-40 181.00-193.00 12.00 8.85 141.0 0.49 165.5 5.3\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\nSilver equivalent is calculated using a ratio of 50:1. The Company has\nnot undertaken metallurgical tests to determine the recovery of gold and\nsilver. Therefore the silver equivalents values stated here assume a recovery\nof 100%.\n\n\nVein widths and the silver and gold grades reported are comparable or\nhigher than those from previous drill programmes. The intercepts in the\nsoutheastern portion of the Urumalqui vein show that the structure remains\nopen at depth and along strike to the southeast. At depth the Urumalqui vein\nmaintains both continuity and grade and...
