EurOmax Resources Limited (TSX-V: EOX) ("EurOmax") is pleased to announce that recent drillhole results have extended the strike of the high grade Breznik gold-silver deposit from nearly 1,000 metres to approximately 2,200 metres. Drilling also identified a parallel zone (Zone 2) to the previously identified high grade gold-silver deposit. A previously unknown Gold - Copper target has also been identified.In this program a total of 11 diamond drill holes totaling 1,020 were completed.
Results from this program in Zone 1 include 1. 3 meters at 8.94 g/t gold; 6.1 metres at 5.38 g/t gold; and 1 metre at 7.23 g/t gold in the previously explored structure. This structure remains open to the west although it does not outcrop but is below alluvial cover. The results from the drilling in Vein 1 are:

In parallel Zone 2, results include 4.4 metres at 3.82 g/t gold followed by 1 meter at 6.71 g/t gold and 2 metres at 5.66 g/t gold followed by 1 meter at 4.45 g/t gold. This zone has been traced over a strike length of approximately 300 metres and is open at depth and to the east and west. The results from drilling in Zone 2 are:

One diamond drill hole was completed on a target north east of the Breznik gold - silver deposit. This drill hole encountered a gold - copper zone including 20.7 metres grading 1.02 g/t gold and 0.58% copper. The results of this hole are:

"We are highly encouraged with the results from this recent drill campaign. The discovery of a new parallel Gold/Copper Zone is very exciting and represents the potential to dramatically increase the deposit size at Breznik" stated Dimitar Dimitrov, EurOmax Senior Vice President of Exploration.
The Breznik Project is located approximately 35 kilometres west of Sofia, the capital city of Bulgaria. The project is accessible by paved roads with access throughout the area by a combination of paved and unpaved roads and tracks. The project area contains gentle to steep hills and is vegetated by plantation pine forests and pastures with the former covering steeper terrain.
Quality control and Quality Assurance
Drilling was conducted using diamond drilling. Drillhole samples were prepared and assayed by SGS Chelopech laboratory in Bulgaria. SGS Chelopech follows SGS Global methods and procedures and has stringent quality control and assurance practices. Gold was assayed by a 30 gram fire assay with an AAS/ICPOES finish while other elements were assayed by a two acid digest with an ICPOES finish. Higher grades were assayed by a four acid digest with an AAS finish. Quality control standards and blanks were routinely included. Assay results are consistent with expectations.
