(1) Mineralized true thicknesses are 60-100% of stated thicknesses. The
calculation of drill intercepts employs a 0.3 gram/tonne cut-off and no
cutting grade has been applied to high gold values.
(2) Not all drill holes identified in this release have had a full sample
submission completed as planned, as a prioritized system of sample
submission has been introduced due to the previously identified sample
backlog. Additional significant results will be released and posted as
received.
(3) True thickness not yet determined
Key intersections have extended the Western Lodes west and
north. Hole 178, which intercepted 9.3 metres of 11.62 grams per
tonne gold on Magambazi Main, builds as a 70-metre depth extension
of the previously reported intersection in hole 218 grading 9.1
metres of 7.62 grams per tonne gold in Magambazi Central (see press
release dated August 26, 2011).
