NEWS RELEASE FEBRUARY 06, 2008
ROCHESTER BRINGS SECOND DRILL TO FLORIDA NORTH
VANCOUVER, CANADA - ROCHESTER RESOURCES LTD. (TSXV: RCT; OTCBB: RCTFF AND
FRANKFURT: R5I): Rochester is pleased to announce that a second diamond drill
has arrived at the Company's property in Nayarit, Mexico. This drill will be
mobilized at the Florida North Project. Currently the Company has a 7000m drill
program scheduled for three different projects. In November 2007 drilling
commenced at the Santa Fe property and with the addition of this second drill it
will enable the Company to accelerate its exploration program.
An initial 2000 metre drill program will be implemented at Florida North to test
the continuation of the current Florida Vein system which the company is
currently mining. The mineralization at Florida North has been traced at surface
for approximately 1.5 kilometres to the north-northwest of the Florida mine. The
Company feels this area will supplement the current mill with feed and increase
the mine life of Florida significantly.
At the Santa Fe Property, the Company has been drilling the Clavellinos vein
system where they are testing the a 40-metre-wide mineralized alteration zone
with three subparallel high-grade epithermal veins emplaced within; there has
been a strike length of over 5km traced at service. Drill results are expected
shortly.
Dr. Parra is currently the Company's in-house Qualified Person and QP Member of
the Mining and Metallurgical Society of America with special expertise in
Mining.
ABOUT ROCHESTER RESOURCES LTD.:
Rochester represents a pure-play in the exploration and development of
high-grade gold and silver properties located in Nayarit, Mexico. The Company is
a niche player in Mexico which has assembled an attractive portfolio of
properties in the Sierra Madre Occidental Range. This is the largest epithermal
precious metal region in the world, hosting the majority of Mexico's large
tonnage gold and silver deposits. Current production generates growing cash flow
and helps fund our ongoing exploration and development with minimum share
dilution.
We have identified 37 vein structures on our two Projects (Mina Real and Santa
Fe) and recently embarked on an aggressive follow-up exploration program
including a 7000m drill program and a 2000m drift development program that will
determine the next steps for mine development and production levels. Little
follow-up work has been completed to date on the vein structures identified
across both Projects.
Rochester is well positioned to advance its Projects and can very quickly become
a significant player in Mexico. Rochester has a strong senior management team
based in Mexico, a workforce in place to advance its projects through to mine
development, and strong financial backing to implement and advance our work
programs.
