Endomines reports new mineralization with robust intercepts close to Pampalo Gold Mine

Endomines AB (the "Company”) is pleased to report preliminary results from its current underground core drilling campaign at the Pampalo mine, located on the Karelian Gold Line. The Karelian Gold line is a 40 km long gold-critical Archean greenstone belt in Ilomantsi (Eastern Finland), where Endomines controls all currently known gold deposits. The drilled property is fully owned by Endomines.

Results have been received from the first seven holes of a 15-hole, 739-meter, campaign, which started in April 2012. This campaign focused on an area between the Pampalo and Pampalo East ore zones, and yielded a number of encouraging intercepts, including 6 m @ 5.9 g/t gold, 12.6 m @ 5.2 g/t, and 9.8 m @ 5.0 g/t gold, in addition to the previously drilled intercepts yielding 9.2 m @ 4.1 g/t gold and 11.6 m @ 3.2 g/t gold. 

These results prove that there is a new mineralized zone between the currently known Pampalo and Pampalo East gold resources, at grades comparable with the previously known gold lodes at Pampalo.

The drilling campaign will proceed further as planned upwards, downdip and along strike with a view to follow the mineralized zone.

All samples from the drilling campaign have as yet not been assayed. Complete results will be published in due course on the Company web-site: http://www.endomines.com/pampaloexploration2012.php

“These exploration results from the first exploration drillings in 2012 have confirmed the significant potential for further gold deposits in the immediate vicinity of the Pampalo ore”, says Markus Ekberg, CEO of Endomines. “The drilling campaign is proceeding both up and downdip starting from the discovery level. We look forward to receiving further results and have high expectations for these”.
