[{"type":"text","content":"\n\n\n\nTrading Symbol: JSP (TSX-Venture)\n\n\nCALGARY, Sept. 4 /CNW/ - Jasper Mining Corporation (the "Company") has\nreceived initial analytical results from the first two holes of the 2008\nexploration program on its 100% owned Isintok property. The property comprises\napproximately 2,839 ha (7,015 acres or approximately 11.0 square miles),\ncovering the drainage divide between McNulty and Isintok creeks. The property\nis located west of the Okanagan Valleyin south-central British Columbia,\napproximately 27 km west-southwest of Summerland and 20 km north of Hedley.\n\n\nA total of 24 diamond drill holes have been completed to date as part of\nthe 2008 exploration program, in addition to 16 holes completed during the\n2006 field season. The holes continue the Company's evaluation of sub-surface\nmineralization in the general area drilled in 1982 and 1976-1979 by previous\noperators. A summary of the Company's results from the 2006 diamond drill\nprogram were previously reported (see Press Release dated April 9, 2007).\n\n\nIn late 2006, the Company had an Induced Potential (IP) geophysical\nsurvey completed on the property. The results of the IP survey correlated very\nwell with surface soil geochemical results and initial sub-surface drill\nresults from 2006. The 2008 drill program is specifically intended to test a\nchargeability high defined by the IP anomaly.\n\n\nHoles 17 and 18 (continuing sequentially from the last hole (IS-06-16)\nfrom 2006) were collared from the same pad, located along the southern north -\nsouth oriented "tail" of the coincident IP / soil anomaly. Hole 17. Both holes\nwere oriented toward azimuth 270, with Hole 17 at an inclination of -45 and\nHole 18 at -60 degrees. The pad is located approximately 30 m east of the\nsurface trace of the IP anomaly.\n\n\nThe table on the following page is a compilation of high grade analytical\nresults for copper +/- molybdenum +/- silver +/- gold from the first two holes\n(IS-08-17 and 18) completed in 2008.\n\n\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nHole From To Width Cu(1) Mo MoS(2)(2) Ag Au\nNumber (m) (m) (m) (%) (%) (%) (g/t) (g/t)\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nIS-08-17 83.41 89.21 5.80 0.119 0.002 0.004 0.147 0.003\n-----------------------------------------...
