Dear Investor,
Please find attached the Alhambra Resources Ltd.
(ALH - TSX Venture) news
release which was distributed earlier this morning titled, "Dombraly
Drilling Leads to the Discovery of Four New Zones of Gold Mineralization and
Proves Significant Gold Contained in Both Low-Grade Stockpile and Open Pit
Back Fill
CALGARY, Alberta - Alhambra Resources Ltd.
(TSX Venture: ALH) ("Alhambra" or
the "Corporation"), an international gold producer and explorer, announces
that its diamond drilling program at Dombraly has resulted in the discovery
of four new zones of gold mineralization.
In addition, reverse-circulation
drilling intersected significant gold mineralization in both the low-grade
stockpile and material used to back fill the old open pit.
The former
Dombraly gold mine ("Dombraly") is located within Alhambras 100% owned
Uzboy Project in Kazakhstan (see Figure 1).
HIGHLIGHTS
.
The successful diamond drilling program intersected four new zones
of gold mineralization (see Figure 2),
.
The new zones of gold mineralization located south of the Dombraly
open pit have increased the strike length of the Dombraly mineralized zone
by 300 metres ("m").
Mineralization is mainly oxide with average gold grades
ranging from 0.45 to 3.95 grams per tonne ("g/t") and a high peak sulfide
gold grade of 40.50 g/t over 1.0 m,
.
The new zone located north of the Dombraly open pit is outside of
the previously known areas of gold mineralization, is open to the north, is
estimated to be more than 100 m long and varies in width from 9 to 14 m.
Mineralization is sulfide with average gold grades range from 0.48 g/t over
10.0 m to 4.08 g/t over 4.3 m included in a gold grade of 2.06 g/t over 10.3
m and a high peak gold grade of 10.30 g/t,
.
RC drilling intersected significant gold mineralization in both
the low-grade stockpile and the material used to back fill the old open pit
(see Figures 3a and 3b).
The low-grade stockpile gold grades ranged from
less than 0.1 to 19.3 g/t while the back fill material gold grades ranged
from 0.1 to 11.2 g/t.
Mr.
John J.
Komarnicki, Alhambras Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
stated, "The discovery of four new zones of gold mineralization at Dombraly
has very exciting implications for Alhambra! Dombraly was one of our 2010
priority exploration targets and will continue to be a priority for 2011.
We
are very excited about this drilling program for the positive results should
allow us to re-classify the historical Soviet resource and reserve data
(which has been acknowledged by the Kazakhstan State Reserve Committee) into
a compliant National Instrument 43-101 resource estimate for Dombraly, as it
should be."
