Woulfe Mining Corp. ("Woulfe" or the "Company") (TSX
VENTURE:WOF)(OTCQX:WFEMF)(FRANKFURT:OZ4) is pleased to announce assay results
for samples associated with the drilling program at Sangdong. Drilling from
underground locations at Sangdong is continuing and the results will be used to
progressively update the Resource estimate.
This batch of assay results comprises 14 holes, of which four were drilled from
Sangdong Level, three were drilled from -1 Level, and seven were drilled from
raises and ladderways between Sangdong and 1 Levels. Most were short holes of
30-50 metres length targeting the Footwall Zones between 1 Level and Taebaek
Level. The Sangdong Level holes were located towards the western end of the
orebody and were designed to test all three lodes. Three holes terminated in
Main Zone voids and the fourth located at the western extremity encountered thin
mineralisation in both the Main and Hangingwall Zones.
Significant Footwall Zone intersections include 4.7 metres true width at 1.13%
WO3 (WSDD0119) and 8.4 metres true width at 0.56% WO3 including 5.5 metres true
width at 1.02% WO3, (WSDD0121).
The significant drilling results are summarised as below:

Significant drill intercepts, defined as any mineralisation of 1 metre lengths
or longer, are presented in the tables above. A cut-off of 0.15% WO3 was used
for the intersection calculations.
The drilling program is targeting the unmined mineralisation in the upper
section of the mine above the current water level for mine planning and
feasibility reserve estimation purposes. The resource for this section of the
mine was re-estimated following the completion of 90 holes in the current
drilling program, resulting in an Indicated Resource of 16.4 million tonnes at
0.45% WO3, 0.04% MoS2 and an Inferred Resource of 19.4 million tonnes at 0.44%
WO3, 0.05% MoS2 at a cut-off of 0.15% WO3. The resource below the valley floor
is 34.519 million tonnes at 0.47% WO3, 0.07% MoS2 cut off 0.15% WO3.
The samples are prepared on-site in Korea to appropriate industry standards and
sent to SGS Perth, Australia for analysis. Samples are analysed by Inductively
Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP) and for ore-grade quantities of specific
elements by aqua regia or 4-acid digestion followed by ICP analysis. Molybdenum
is analysed by X-ray fluorescence. The QA/QC protocol comprises insertion of one
standard, one blank (crushed glass) and one pulp duplicate in every batch of 20
samples. No QA/QC results are available as yet.
This news release has been reviewed and approved in the form and context in
which it appears by Mr Paul Gribble FIMMM, C.Eng, of Tetra Tech Wardrop, who is
working with Woulfe on the Sangdong studies. Mr Gribble has appropriate
qualifications and sufficient relevant experience to qualify as a Qualified
Person for the reporting of exploration results and Mineral Resources for the
Sangdong deposit.
