EMGOLD COMPLETES DRILLING ON ITS MOLYBDENUM, TUNGSTEN AND GOLD PROPERTIES IN BRITISH COLUMBIA
Emgold Mining Corporation (EMR-TSX Venture) (the “Company” or “Emgold”) is pleased to announce that it has completed 3,450 metres (11,300 feet) of drilling in 31 drill holes on the Stewart/Jazz Property and the Rozan Property, both located in south eastern British Columbia.
The drilling program included the testing of two areas of mineralization on the Stewart/Jazz Property. The first area has historically been explored for molybdenum, having been drilled by Shell Minerals and Selco Inc. in the early 1980’s. Their exploration programs defined three intrusive breccia phases that contain significant molybdenum mineralization (see Emgold June 12, 2007, news release). In late 2005, Emgold conducted a 500-metre diamond drill program to test the historic drill results as part of a due diligence program. Based on the favourable results from Emgold’s drill program, additional drilling was conducted this year to test for depth and lateral extensions to the molybdenum-mineralized body. A total of 8 drill holes were completed within and adjacent to the molybdenum zone.
The second area of drill testing on the Stewart/Jazz Property lies adjacent to the Stewart Moly Zone and consists of an area of historic tungsten mineralization that was explored in the 1940s by Cominco Ltd. Emgold completed a trenching program this year on the tungsten-mineralized zone with encouraging results (see Emgold November 16, 2007, news release). A total of 22 drill holes were completed within the tungsten zone.
Diamond drilling was also completed on the Rozan Property. Gold on the Rozan Property is found in quartz veins, sheeted veins and stockwork zones. A small (2-hole) diamond drill program was completed on the Rozan Property by Emgold in 2000. One hole intersected the main Rozan quartz vein and returned a gold assay value of 60.73 g/t over 0.25 metres. The single drill hole was completed in the 2007 program to further test the extent of this high grade vein. Drilling has now been suspended due to winter weather conditions.
All drill core is being logged and sampled at a facility located in Salmo, BC. Samples are currently being shipped directly to Assayers Canada Ltd. in Vancouver, BC. Logging and sampling of core is scheduled for completion by the end of November. Assay results are expected to be available in the first quarter of 2008.
