Republic Gold [ASX: RAU] - High grade copper-gold analysis results for Burraga tailings

Republic Gold Limited (ASX: RAU) provides an update on recent sampling activities at the Company�s Burraga Copper Project in Central New South Wales.

Auger drill samples were taken from the tailings dump from the turn of the 20th Century Lloyd�s Copper Mine operations, plus grab samples from the extensive slag dumps dating to the same period.

Key Points:

� 22 shallow auger holes drilled in the tailings sand dump from the Lloyd�s Copper Mine, for a total of 84 metres of drilling.
� Average gold, silver and copper grades obtained from the tailings were 0.30 g/t Au, 10.9 g/t Ag and 1.36% Cu.
� Grab samples from the extensive slag heaps from the Lloyd�s Copper Mine gave average gold, silver and copper grades of grade of 0.09 g/t Au, 4.4 g/t Ag and 0.92% Cu.
� A resource will now be calculated for the tailings dump.
� A metallurgical testwork programme has now been planned to test the recoverability of the metal in the tailings and slag.
� A report from 1969 indicates copper recoveries up to 83% to a flotation concentrate.
� A cash generating tailings retreatment project will be scoped out once the metallurgy and resource are complete.
