VANCOUVER, Oct. 30 /CNW/ - EurOmax Resources Limited (TSX-V: EOX) ("EurOmax") is pleased to announce preliminary results from the trenching program at the Kazandol property in Macedonia including:
- 57 metres grading 0.40% copper and 150 metres grading 0.26% copper in trench EO0701 - 37 metres grading 0.51% copper and 47 metres at 0.46% copper within 200 metres at 0.32% copper in trench EO0702
At Kazandol outcropping copper mineralisation has been mapped over a length of five kilometres. Within this zone two large copper oxide targets have been defined: Kazandol North and Kazandol South.
Trenching across the strike of the mineralisation at Kazandol North defines a zone with greater than 0.1% copper, 800 metres long and up to 250 metres wide within a 600 metre wide geochemical anomaly. The trenches are believed to reflect the true width of mineralisation. The Kazandol North target is positioned along a steep 1.5 kilometre long ridge with up to 100 metres elevation above the surrounding terrain.

EurOmax is exploring the property for oxide copper mineralisation which could be amenable to low cost Solvent Extraction Electro-winning (SX-EW) technology and plans a drilling program when all trench results are available. No previous drilling has been conducted on the property.
Quality control and Quality Assurance
Routine assays are undertaken at Eurotest AD laboratory in Sofia, Bulgaria, an ISO9001 accredited facility. Quality control samples are not routinely submitted for trench and soil geochemical sampling. Copper is assayed using a 50 gram acid digest ICP method.
