Brazauro Reports Results of Last Remaining Drill-Holes
Completed By Eldorado Gold Corp. at Tocantinzinho
Houston, TX – Brazauro Resources Corp. is pleased to announce results of the remaining drilling carried out by Eldorado Gold Corp. at the Company’s 100%-owned Tocantinzinho Gold Project (TZ) in the Tapajos region of Para state, Brazil. These results represent the last eight holes executed by Eldorado as part of its planned 20,000-meter drilling program at Tocantinzinho.
With the completion of this campaign, total drilling at Tocantinzinho amounts to 45,065 meters in 159 diamond drill holes. Of these, 139 holes delineate the deposit for a total of 40,960 meters. In summary, Brazauro drilled 97 holes for a total of 25,635 meters and Eldorado drilled 62 holes for a total of 19,430 meters.
The objectives of Eldorado’s drilling program were to confirm previous drilling results reported by Brazauro, to fill in the mineralized resource model, to investigate the geochemical and physical nature of the wallrock and to provide larger samples for metallurgical testing.
Of the remaining eight holes now disclosed, three were drilled to fill in the high-grade zone in the middle of the mineralized area. These were hole numbers TOC 145A, 146 and 152. Holes TOC-148, 150 and 151 were drilled in the northwest portion of the mineralized zone, which presents intervals of high and low grade mineralization. Holes TOC-147 and 149 were drilled in the southeast extremity of the mineralized area, which is typically lower grade.
Mark Jones, chairman and CEO, said, “We are pleased that the drill program continues to confirm the resource model at Tocantinzinho and the results are consistent with drilling carried out by Brazauro .”
The following table summarizes the results of these eight holes.
Hole | Length (m) | Au grade (g/t) | From (m) | To (m) | Final Depth (m) |
TOC-145A | 46.12 | 0.35 | 313.56 | 359.68 | 516.63 |

Mineralized intervals are determined using a cut-off of 0.20 g/t Au. All intercepts are “down the hole” and do not represent true widths. All holes are inclined from 55° to 81° from horizontal.
In accordance with the Option/Joint Venture Agreement signed in July, 2008, Eldorado Gold Corp. is managing the Tocantinzinho Project until the earlier of July 24, 2010 or exercise of its option.
Eldorado has the option to acquire a 60% interest in the Tocantinzinho Project for $40 million by committing to an expenditure of $9.5 million over a two-year period toward completing an NI 43-101-compliant feasibility study. Eldorado will have a second option to purchase an additional 10% of the Tocantinzinho Project for a further $30 million once a construction decision has been made following the completion of a feasibility study. Should the feasibility study develop between 2 and 2.5 million or more than 2.5 million proven and probable ounces of gold, the second option price will be increased by $5 and $10 million, respectively. Eldorado will have a third option to purchase an additional 5% of the Tocantinzinho Project for a further $20 million within two years of the construction decision.
Sampling Procedures
The recovered NTW and BTW-size cores are split in half by a standard rock saw. One-half is sent to the laboratory in intervals not greater than 2 meters in length and cut depending on geologic parameters. The remaining half-core is stored on site. The samples were bagged in lots of fifty (50) and flown from the project site to Belo Horizonte ALS-Chemex lab. Samples are dried at 105°C; crushed with at least 70% of passing mass in 2mm sieve (grain fraction). Samples are split to obtain 250 to 300g of material and pulverized with at last 85% of material passing in a sieve of 75 microns = 200 mesh. A split of 30g is assayed by Fire Assay and AAS. In case of samples with visible gold a duplicate is collected and the procedure is repeated.
In addition to the laboratory’s quality control, Eldorado has added its own certified check samples each 10 samples.
Mr. Rodrigo Mello, a qualified person as defined in NI 43-101 and Senior Consultant of Belo Horizonte, Brazil-based NCL Brasil Ltda., has read and approved the technical portions of this release.
