Reliance Resources announces high-grade copper (5.2%) and silver (729 g/t) rock grab samples at Akelamo Prospect on Halmahera

  • 5.2% Cu from south-east extension of Akelamo Prospect
  • 729 g/t Ag, 288g/t Ag and 75 g/t Ag from northernmost outcrops assayed at Akelamo
  • New zone of epithermal veining discovered to south-west of Akelamo
VANCOUVER, Oct. 30, 2012 /CNW/ - Reliance Resources Limited (the "Company") (TSX: RI) is pleased to provide an update on its exploration activities at its Akelamo Gold/Silver Prospect, located on the Kapa Kapa property on Halmahera Island, Indonesia. Reliance has more than 44,000 acres of exploration ground on Halmahera (Figure 1), and the Company is the second-largest holder of exploration licences on the island next to Newcrest Mining Limited (ASX: NCM). 

Laboratory assay results have been received for 7 samples collected during the Akelamo reconnaissance exploration program (Table 1).

Table 1: Recent Akelamo Prospect Rock Grab Sample Results
(See figure 3 for location)
 
Reconnaissance exploration in the southern extension of the Akelamo Zone has encountered rock float of silicified and brecciated volcanics with tarnished sulphides (Figure 2). A grab sample of this has assayed high in copper and silver - 5.2% Cu and 83 g/t Ag. This sample continues a pattern observed at Akelamo of high-grade copper values adjacent to the main Akelamo Zone (Figure 3). 

In another area, three grab samples were collected from mineralised outcrops in the headwaters of Sanggut and Sobit creeks. Assays from these samples confirm strong silver - 729 g/t Ag, 288 g/t Ag and 75 g/t Ag. They represent the northernmost outcrop samples at Akelamo and show the zone is still open to the north.
Outcrop grab sample RC01258 of a vuggy quartz vein was collected 50m south-west the main mapped zone of alteration/veining and returned high silver assays 631 g/t Ag (Figure 3). Sample RC01184 was taken from an outcrop of colloform banded quartz veins near the intersection of Gunyira and Akelamo creeks, within the Main Akelamo Zone and continues to verify the high-grade silver nature of veins within this zone and its association with base metals - 655 g/t Ag, 1.09 g/t Au and 0.1% Cu

Recent mapping has also discovered a new zone of epithermal quartz veining and hydrothermal alteration along Kasbi Creek, 500m to the south of the main Akelamo Zone. Mapping and sampling is still reconnaissance in nature and the dimensions of the prospect are still open. Several samples were collected and tested with a hand held Niton XRF instrument including one prepared sample returning a significant analysis of 123 ppm Ag and 0.1% Pb. This and other samples from the new Kasbi Creek prospect are being prepared for confirmation by laboratory analysis. 

A grid-controlled soil sampling program, utilising the Niton, is currently underway across the Akelamo prospect. 

Reliance Resources CEO Gary Lewis says, "The discovery of high grade copper at Akelamo is a further indication of the high prospectivity of the Reliance exploration concessions in Halmahera. Field exploration continues to increase the extent of the mineralisation at Akelamo and it is now evident that the mineralising system is of a large scale. Akelamo is only one 5 known prospect areas within the Kapa Kapa property.
The soil geochemical sample grid at Akelamo should provide further important target definition of the mineralisation prior to drilling. Regional and prospect scale exploration will continue." 

Drilling is continuing in the Company's Tanoyan Gold project in Sulawesi, Indonesia, which currently has a NI 43-101 inferred mineral resource of 208,000 ounces of gold (4.58mt at 1.41 g/t Au) at 0.5 g/t Au cut-off grade which was announced on March 19, 2012. 

Mr. Lewis says, "We look forward to informing shareholders as results from Sulawesi and Halmahera become available and are interpreted by our technical team."
"Tanoyan is the project with the best opportunity of near-term production and remains Reliance's primary focus at present. However, we see the potential of Halmahera as equally important for the long-term future as the island is clearly prospective for high grade gold and silver and hosts one of the world's highest grade epithermal gold mines - Newcrest's Gosowong mine (approximately 5 Moz at 24 g/t Au)."

Reliance Resources offers drilling update on Tanoyan Gold Project in Sulawesi, Indonesia

  • Phase 2 drilling totals 10 holes and 1,530.8 metres
  • Deepest intersection at Tanoyan affirms the trend for increased gold grade with depth of 12.6 metres at 2.7 g/t Au from 179.1m (TND097)
  • Part of Phase 2, 10,000-metre drilling program to increase 43-101 mineral resource estimate
VANCOUVER, Sept. 13, 2012 /CNW/ - Reliance Resources Ltd. (the "Company") (TSX:RI) is pleased to announce the completion of 10 holes and 1,530.8m of diamond drilling on its 75 percent-owned Tanoyan Gold Project in Indonesia. This drilling is part of an ongoing, 10,000-metre Phase 2 program designed to further assess the resource potential of the large 6Km epithermal vein system at Tanoyan. The most recent resource estimate was the independent NI 43-101 Inferred Mineral Resource of 208,000 ounces of gold released on the 19th of March, 2012.
Table 1 lists the gold intersections from the Phase 2 drilling which includes three holes that were previously released (17th May and 31st May, 2012), and the locations of the holes in relation to the mapped veins and previous drill collars is shown in Fig 1.
Highlights of the recent results include those from TND097 which achieved the deepest gold intersection so far obtained on the Tanoyan property:
  • TND 097: 12.6 metres at 2.7 g/t Au from 179.1m
This intersection is important as it confirms that the gold mineralising system continues strongly to depth in the northern part of the Sondana Vein.
The drilling results confirm the indications from previous work, that the upper sections of the North Sondana vein is relatively low in gold (e.g. TND 096 intersected only low gold values in the vein). The vertical cross-section in fig. 2 shows recent drill results and is an example of the deeper enrichment, near-surface-depletion zonation of the gold mineralisation often encountered in Sondana North.
The recent drilling also emphasised the importance of post-mineral cross-cutting faults that contributed to some of the misses in recent holes. For example, TND093 did not intersect the Sondana Vein in the predicted position. At this position the vein is now interpreted to have been faulted off approximately 40 metres north. 

The Sondana Vein has been traced along strike for at least a further 1.1 km from the northernmost hole drilled by Reliance Resources (TND081).  This northern extension has only been tested by two shallow historic drillholes (see fig 3). In keeping with the pattern encountered at Sondana North, below-average gold values were encountered in shallow intersections of the vein (e.g. TND 039: 7.3m @ 1.0 g/t Au). However, the mineralisation model being developed for Tanoyan suggests future Phase 2 drilling will encounter stronger mineralisation at intermediate and deep levels. 

Reliance Resources CEO Mr. Gary Lewis said: "Tanoyan is our most advanced project and the continued progress on the Phase 2 drilling is important in our quest to turn the project into a producing asset. These recent results have advanced our understanding of the geology of the Tanoyan gold system as well as provided us with the deepest gold intersection on the property to date. Drilling will continue at Tanoyan and we look forward to updating investors as results come to hand and are interpreted by our geologists."
The Tanoyan Gold Project consists of an extensive system of auriferous quartz veins comprising four principal vein systems: Sondana, Ramai, Modupola/Talong and Lingkobungon. These veins are predominantly orientated northeast and dip steeply or moderately to the northwest or southeast.  The veins are hosted by andesitic volcanic rocks and have been mapped over a combined strike length of approximately six kilometres. 

The Phase 2 program aiming for a significant upgrade to the existing NI 43-101 resource by targeting extensions to drilled sections of the veins, which have been identified along strike and at depth on all vein systems. Previous drilling has primarily been tightly focused on the Sondana and Modupola veins and the current Phase 2 program will extend drilling into all target areas.
The resource model at the Sondana and Modupola veins is open at depth for most of its length, especially in the north of the Sondana vein, where significant drill intersections from Phase 1 drilling are located. The Phase 2 drilling program is designed to test at depth for extensions mineralisation that have been mapped on surface and in locations where earlier drilling has shown the mineralisation is open at depth. Infill drilling should confirm the strike continuity of vein systems and thereby improve the classification of the mineral resources. 

The Company has a portfolio of five mineral tenements covering 68,000 acres on the islands of Sulawesi and Halmahera in East Indonesia. The projects offer both exploration potential and an existing resource base. All five projects are adjacent to or along strike from operating gold mines or identified gold resources with similar geology and structural feature. Importantly, all projects have been converted to IUP tenements as required under the new Indonesian Mining Act (2009).
The Company is active on three of its five Indonesian gold projects; currently drilling on the Tanoyan Gold Project and conducting surface exploration programs on the Kapa Kapa Gold Project and the Roko Gold Projects. All of the projects have easy access via paved and/or gravel roads and regional infrastructure is good.

Tanoyan Gold Project, Sualawesi, Indonesia : Drilling continues to intersects gold mineralisation

  • Results received from first 2 holes
  • Include 5.3 metres at 4.4 g/t Au from 101.4m
  • Extends Sondana vein gold mineralisation at depth with increasing grade and thickness
  • 10,000 metres diamond drilling program underway
VANCOUVER, May 17, 2012 /CNW/ - Reliance Resources Ltd. (the "Company") (TSX:RI) is pleased to announce drilling results from 2 holes into the Sondana Vein system on the Tanoyan Gold Project, Sulawesi, Indonesia (see Table 1). The company recently commenced drilling of its planned 10,000 Phase 2 program following the release of an updated independent NI 43-101 report for Tanoyan (March 19, 2012), which more than doubled the Inferred Mineral Resource to 208,000 ounces of gold.
The Tanoyan Gold Project consists an extensive system of auriferous quartz veins, comprising four principal vein systems, Sondana, Ramai, Modupola/Talong and Lingkobungon. These veins are predominantly orientated northeast and dip steeply or moderately to the northwest or southeast. The veins are hosted by andesitic volcanic rocks and have been mapped over a combined strike length of approximately 6 kilometres.
The Phase 2 program is aiming for a significant upgrade to the existing NI 43-101 resource by targeting extensions to drilled sections of the veins, which have been identified, as well as along strike and at depth on all vein systems. Drilling to date has primarily been tightly focused on the Sondana and Modupola veins.
Assay results have been received from the first two drill holes in the new program and include a high-grade intersection:
  • TND 089: 5.3 metres at 4.4 g/t Au from 101.4m
The assay result for hole TND 089 continues a theme from earlier drilling which shows a general increase in grade and thickness with depth which represents a significant increase in grade and width from the overlying drillhole along this section (TND083)

(Figure 1). http://www.relianceresources.com/i/maps/Sondana-Vein-Drill-Section-TND089.jpg
 
TND 088 was drilled in the southern portion of the Tanoyan system and intersected 2 zones of quartz vein containing gold mineralisation over narrow widths. Details of the intersections are to be found in Table 1. This section of the Sondana vein has only been sparsely drilled and further structural analysis and follow up drilling will be required to locate thicker and higher grade zones.
The resource model at the Sondana and Modupola veins is open at depth for most of its length and along strike to the north of the Sondana vein, where significant drill intersections from Phase 1 drilling are located. The Phase 2 program is designed to extend mineralisation along strike and laterally with further drilling. Infill drilling should confirm the strike continuity of vein systems and thereby improve the classification of the mineral resources. 

Reliance president Scott Emerson stated "We are pleased to be drilling again at Tanoyan. The first assay results are in and they include an excellent result from TND 089. It is encouraging to see the gold grades continuing to show an increase in grade with depth of drilling. These results are in line with Reliance's goal to prove up relatively shallow resource ounces, within 150 metres of surface, which could conceptually support a low-cost open cut mine."
The Company has a portfolio of five mineral tenements covering 68,000 acres on the islands of Sulawesi and Halmahera in East Indonesia. The projects offer both exploration potential and an existing resource base. All five projects are adjacent to or along strike from operating gold mines or identified gold resources with similar geology and structural feature. Importantly, all projects have been converted to IUP tenements as required under the new Indonesian Mining Act (2009).
The Company is active on four of its five Indonesian gold projects; currently drilling on the Tanoyan Gold Project and conducting surface exploration programs on the Palopo Gold Project, the Kapa Kapa Gold/Silver Project and the Roko Gold Project. All of the projects have easy access via paved and/or gravel roads and regional infrastructure is good. 

This press release has been reviewed and approved by Mr. John Levings, B.Sc., FAusIMM, director of Reliance Resources Limited and a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, under whose direction the exploration programs are being carried out.

Reliance Resources Ltd. - Roko Gold Project, Halmahera, Indonesia: Major Epithermal System Outlined

  • Recent exploration results enhances prospectively for gold mineralisation
  • Host rocks, hydrothermal alteration and structural setting similar to nearby "Gosowong" bonanza gold deposit
  • 3 km corridor hosting high level epithermal quartz veining and altered intrusive has been discovered
  • Most prospective target zone for bonanza gold mineralisation expected to be at a deeper level
  • Preliminary soil sampling results confirms anomalous pathfinder elements
  • Surface exploration continues in preparation for diamond drilling program
VANCOUVER, May 15, 2012 /CNW/ - Reliance Resources Ltd. (the "Company")(TSX:RI) is pleased to update exploration activities on its Roko Gold Prospect on Halmahera Island, Indonesia. Halmahera is host to one of the highest-grade underground major gold discoveries in recent years: Newcrest's Gosowong-Kencana gold mine, (past production: 2.0 Moz Au, current resources: 2.4 Moz Au, average head grade 2008-2011: 30 g/t Au)1. Reliance Resources has the second largest landholding for gold exploration on Halmahera after Newcrest Mining.
Work to date on the Roko Project, including mapping, gridding, channel sampling and trenching, has resulted in the discovery and surface definition of a 3 kilometre long structurally-controlled target corridor which is considered to be associated with a major, deep crustal, north-east trending transfer fault (The Tiabo Lineament). The Tiabo Lineament, which passes through the Roko concession area, is considered an important regional geological feature associated with numerous occurrences of gold and silver (including Reliance's Roko and Kapa Kapa project areas). The major Gosowong-Kencana gold mining camp is interpreted by the company's expert structural geologists to be associated with another deep crustal lineament which parallels the Tiabo Lineament.
The 3-kilometre Roko target corridor is host to igneous intrusions, multi-phase hydrothermal alteration and high level epithermal quartz vein mineralisation considered highly prospective for hosting gold and silver mineralisation.
Detailed mapping at Roko West has outlined a north-west trending zone of multiple chalcedonic quartz veins and strongly siliceous eruption breccias with associated hydrothermal alteration along the south western slope of Sesa Hill (Figure 1). Most veins trend north-west with subsidiary north-south vein splays. The breccias occur mainly in an area central to Sesa Hill and are interpreted to represent an eruptive hydrothermal breccia pipe. Eruption breccia pipes are known to be intimately associated with mineralised epithermal vein systems. The Toka Tindung Mine (1.7 Moz Au) in Indonesia is centred on an eruption breccia and epithermal vein systems at McLaughlin (4 Moz Au) in USA, Twin Hills in Australia and Hishikari (9 Moz Au), Japan, grade upwards into outcropping eruption breccia pipes.
The main zone of veining and alteration so far mapped at Roko West is approximately 1 kilometre in length and 100-200m in width. Banded chalcedonic veins at Roko East outcrop along the banks of the Ira River. The zones are considered to be very prospective as historical channel sampling along the banks of the Ira River retuned 8m @ 1.6 g/t Au which is strongly anomalous for an epithermal vein at such a high level in the system.
Fig 1 Plan view of Roko West and Roko east prospect with location of mapped quartz veins
A grid-controlled soil sampling program has been completed at Roko West and is currently being extended a further 1000 metres to the west where float samples of hydrothermally altered porphyry with quartz-sulphide veins have recently been encountered. Rock samples have been submitted to Intertek Laboratories in Jakarta for assay and results are awaited. Soil samples are collected in the field and taken to Reliance's regional office to be dried. As a preliminary indication of metal content, a portable, hand-held Niton XRF analyser2 is used to determine the concentration of epithermal pathfinder elements such as arsenic (As) and antimony (Sb).
The Niton results show that Sb and As, are anomalous along the strike length of the north-west trending zone of alteration/veining and are highest adjacent to the interpreted eruptive breccia pipe.
Rock grab sampling of quartz veins at Roko has encountered anomalous gold values of between 0.1 - 2.1 g/t Au. Previous reconnaissance channel sampling at Roko East returned 8m @ 1.6 g/t Au. According to the geological model developed for the Roko veins, bonanza gold values are not to be expected at surface but may occur at deeper levels within the system; in zones of fluid mixing and/or boiling. All current indications at surface are that the Roko mineralisation outcrops at a very high level in the hydrothermal system. For example siliceous sinter has been encountered on the slopes of Sesa Hill, evidence of a surface outpouring of hydrothermal fluids (eg similar to The Geysers geothermal field and sinters at the nearby ex-Homestake McLaughlin Mine (4Moz Au) in California).
Geological work at Roko has identified a structurally-controlled corridor with many similar characteristics to the nearby Gosowong deposits. Both have north-west to south-east and north-south trending epithermal quartz veins with associated hydrothermal breccias and sulphide mineralised porphyries. The high-grade veins at Gosowong occur at a lower level in the hydrothermal system. The exploration focus at Roko is to delineate epithermal veins within the prospective corridor and then to drill them at the appropriate level to discover high-grade gold and silver mineralisation.
To maximise the likelihood of a successful drill program further surface exploration is planned such as ground geophysics (resistivity, IP, Magnetics) across the main alteration zones at Roko. These surveys will assist with better defining zones of silicification / epithermal quartz veining, especially in areas of poor surface exposure and will also provide a 3-dimensional view of the mineralising system to best target the drilling, in what is a large epithermal system.
The Company has a portfolio of five mineral tenements covering 68,000 acres on the islands of Sulawesi and Halmahera in East Indonesia. The projects offer both exploration potential and an existing resource base. All five projects are adjacent to or along strike from operating gold mines or identified gold resources with similar geology and structural feature.
The Company is active on four of its five Indonesian gold projects; currently drilling on the Tanoyan Gold Project and conducting surface exploration programs on the Palopo Gold Project, the Kapa Kapa Gold Project and the Roko Gold Project. All of the projects have easy access via paved and/or gravel roads and regional infrastructure is good.

Phase 2 drilling commenced at Tanoyan Gold Project, North Sulawesi, Indonesia



Re:        News Release - Friday, March 30, 2012
Title:     Phase 2 drilling commenced at Tanoyan Gold Project, North Sulawesi, Indonesia



  • 10,000 metres of diamond drilling
  • 6 Km total strike length of shallow epithermal vein system
  • Drilled mineralized zones open on strike and at depth

March 30, 2012, Reliance Resources Ltd. (the "Company")(TSX:RI) is pleased to report that drilling has commenced at the Tanoyan Gold property on Sulawesi island, Indonesia. The company recently released (March 19, 2012) an updated independent NI 43-101 report for Tanoyan which more than doubled the Inferred Resource Gold Ounces to 208,000 Oz. In the light of this positive result and the clear potential, the company has embarked on a 10,000 metre, diamond drilling program which is designed to further increase the mineral resources.

The Tanoyan Gold Project consists of four principal vein systems, Sondana, Ramai, Modupola/Talong and Lingkobungon, which are predominantly orientated northeast to southwest and dip steeply to the northwest or southeast forming an extensive system of auriferous quartz veins. The veins, which are hosted by andesitic volcanics, have been traced over a combined strike length of approximately 6 kilometres. Drilling to date has primarily focused on the Sondana and Modupola veins. The resource model at Tanoyan is open at depth, length and along strike.

In addition, the Phase 2 drill program will test the Ramai, Lingkobungon and Talong Vein systems

President Scott Emerson commented: "Reliance is executing its Phase 2 drilling plan at Tanoyan. I feel confident that this work will continue the success from Phase 1 and will result in further discoveries and significantly increase our mineral resources. In addition, Reliance continues to carry out pre-drilling exploration work on our other projects including the exciting high-level epithermal gold and silver prospects on the island of Halmahera."

The Company has a portfolio of five mineral tenements covering 68,000 acres on the islands of Sulawesi and Halmahera in East Indonesia. The projects offer both exploration potential and an existing resource base. All five projects are adjacent to or along strike from operating gold mines or identified gold resources with similar geology and structural feature. Importantly, all projects have been converted to IUP tenements as required under the new Indonesian Mining Law 4/2009.

The Company is focusing on four of its five Indonesian gold projects; currently drilling on the Tanoyan Gold Project and conducting surface exploration programs on the Palopo Gold Project, the Kapa Kapa Gold Project and the Roko Gold Project. All of the projects have easy access via paved and/or gravel roads and regional infrastructure is good.

Additional High-Grade Silver Assays from Kapa Kapa Gold-Silver Project, Halmahera, Indonesia

News Release - Wednesday, March 14, 2012
Title:     Additional High-Grade Silver Assays from Kapa Kapa Gold-Silver Project, Halmahera, Indonesia


  • Rock grab samples assay up to 2,920 g/t Ag (85.1 ounces silver per ton)
  • Continued confirmation of bonanza-grade silver
  • Mineralized zone traced over 1 Km strike; remains open

March 14, 2012 - Reliance Resources Limited (the Company) (TSX:RI) is pleased to update exploration activities from the ongoing field program at the Kapa Kapa gold and silver project, located on, Halmahera Island, Indonesia.

Current exploration is focussing on hydrothermally altered rocks and precious metal mineralisation within a target zone; so far exceeding 1 Km strike length and up to 200 metres width.

Mapping and rock chip sampling is continuing to define and extend the north-north-west trending zone. The company regards the Akelamo prospect to be underexplored due to the presence of an extensive blanket of geologically recent volcanic ash which largely covers underlying mineralised bedrock. Erosion has removed this ash layer in isolated places allowing inliers of bedrock to be exposed. Epithermal veining seen in Akelamo River occurs within one such inlier of exposed bedrock.

Grab sampling of outcrops within the Akelamo River valley (Figure 2) has continued to return high silver values associated with epithermal quartz veining and hydrothermal breccias, including;

  • RC00978 - 1,080 g/t Ag
  • RC00989 - 344 g/t Ag
  • RC00996 - 307 g/t Ag
  • RC00988 - 392 g/t Ag
  • RC01102 - 2,920 g/t Ag

The highest silver value from the company's recent sampling (RC01102 - 2,920 g/t Ag) is from an epithermal quartz vein cutting across a hydrothermal breccia along the banks of a tributary of Akelamo River. This sample also has a significant base metal association - 0.2%Cu, 1.7% Zn and 1.0%Pb.

This zone was further tested with a 1.2 meter channel sample using a continuous chip sampling method and returned:

CH01006 - 1.2m @ 1,490 g/t Ag, 1.7%Zn, 800ppm Pb and 570ppm Cu

Sampling by the company shows the zone of mineralised and altered andesitic volcanics is approximately 200 meters in width along the Akelamo River valley. The zone is open to the north and the south. Preliminary reconnaissance work to the south of Akelamo River has encountered altered volcanic bedrock with quartz veining and secondary copper staining (malachite) 600m south of Akelamo River within the NNW-trending zone of interest (Figure 1).

A grab sample of material derived from this zone assayed:
  • RF01105 - 0.7% Cu, 0.1 g/t Au, 12 g/t Ag

Historical channel sampling from the Akalemo prospect (Figure 1) returned bonanza silver along with anomalous gold; including:

  • 4m @ 1,800 g/t Ag (and 0.5 g/t Au)
  • 4m @ 466 g/t Ag
  • 5m @ 0.9 g/t Au

A historic rock float sample assayed 15,800 g/t Ag (460 ounces of silver per ton) and 3.0 g/t Au. Preliminary sampling by the company previously reported high silver values up to 992 g/t Ag from the initial reconnaissance sampling and mapping program. These values plus the new values demonstrate the potential this prospect has for truly bonanza-grade silver mineralisation. Surface exploration is continuing in preparation for the upcoming drilling program.

Halmahera is host to Newcrest Mining Limited's Gosowong Mine, one of the highest-grade underground gold mines currently operating anywhere in the world (28 g/t gold average). Reliance Resources has the second largest landholding for gold exploration on Halmahera after Newcrest Mining.

Currently, the company is active on three of its five Indonesian gold projects; preparations for Phase 2 drilling on the Tanoyan Gold Project are underway, surface exploration programs ongoing at the Kapa Kapa Gold Project and the Roko Gold Project. All the company's projects have easy access via paved and/or gravel roads and the regional infrastructure is good.

Rock samples are collected and initially logged at Akelamo Base Camp at the project area. Samples are then securely transported to Reliance Resources' Exploration Office in Tobelo, North Halmahera. Archival samples are retained, as a reference, in the secure Tobelo office facility. All QC samples are introduced before the bagged samples are sent by courier to PT Intertek Laboratory's sample preparation facility in Manado. Prepared samples are then couriered by PT Intertek to their analytical facility in Jakarta for analyses.

Gold is fire assayed using a 50.0 gram aliquot sample with an AA finish. Multi-element analysis is by Four Acid Digestion using an Induced Coupled Plasma (ICP) finish.

The Company's QA/QC program now includes the regular insertion of blanks and certified assay standards into the sample shipments. Locally-sourced blank samples are inserted in every assay batch of 20 samples. Commercial standards are inserted in every assay batch of 25 samples. Regular monitoring of these QC samples is a critical part of Reliance Resources' QA/QC protocols.
This press release has been reviewed and approved by Mr. John Levings, B.Sc., FAusIMM, director of Reliance Resources Ltd. and a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, under whose direction the exploration programs are being carried out.

Neue Regionen werden entdeckt, Explorationsbudgets auf Rekordkurs

Die Stimmung in der Bergbaubranche wird immer besser. Das sieht man auch an den aktuellen Explorationsbudgets.

Tagebau - Hier: auf einem Projekt von Barrick Gold

Von 2002 bis 2008 sind die Explorationsausgaben in der Bergbaubranche immer weiter angestiegen. Eine steigende Nachfrage nach Rohstoffen, vor allem aus den Schwellenländern, sowie hohe und weiter steigende Rohstoffpreise haben den Boom gefördert. Dann kamen die verschiedenen US-Krisen in den Jahren 2008 und 2009, sodass die Explorationstätigkeiten einen harten Einschnitt erlebten. 2009 wurden weltweit noch 8,4 Milliarden Dollar für Sucharbeiten nach nicht-eisenhaltigen Metallen ausgegeben. Inzwischen klettern die Budgets wieder deutlich an, 2011 liegen die Ausgaben für entsprechende Explorationstätigkeiten bei rekordverdächtigen 18,2 Milliarden Dollar. Das geht aus einem Bericht der Metals Economics Group hervor, der traditionell zu Beginn der PDAC in Toronto (Kanada) veröffentlicht wird. Auf dieser Messe trifft sich die gesamte Bergbaubranche. Mehr als 25.000 Teilnehmer diskutieren über die Trends der Branche, über Kosten und neue Möglichkeiten.

Die Kostensteigerungen machen der Branche dabei derzeit zu schaffen, auch bei den Explorationsarbeiten. Höhere Kosten für Energie, Material und Arbeit lassen die Budgets ansteigen. Kostenexplosionen um 20 bis 30 Prozent sind aktuell keine Seltenheit. Damit ist nicht jedes Projekt, das ursprünglich interessant erschien, am Ende wirklich lohnenswert.

Die meisten Gelder werden momentan für die Suche nach Gold, Kupfer und Silber genutzt. Oft werden die Rohstoffe gemeinsam gefunden, daher ist eine genaue Aufspaltung schwierig. Geographisch liegt Lateinamerika bei den Budgets weit vorne. Jeder vierte Dollar wird dort ausgegeben. In Kanada wird etwa jeder fünfte Dollar des weltweiten Explorationsbudgets benötigt.

Mehr und mehr gehen Bergbaugesellschaft jedoch dazu über, in solchen Ländern zu investieren, die als eher gefährlich gelten. Dies kann an der politischen Lage liegen, an der Gesetzgebung oder andere Gründe haben. Rund 23 Prozent aller Budgets werden in diesen Staaten ausgegeben. Dabei haben sich zuletzt zwei „Stars" herauskristallisiert. Hohe Beträge fließen nach Kolumbien und in das afrikanische Burkina Faso, früher als Obervolta auf den Weltkarten verzeichnet. Experten glauben, dass beide Länder auch in Zukunft große Summen anlocken können, die Perspektiven sind vorhanden. Hier hoffen Investoren auf bessere Margen. Denn andere Länder beschneiden die Gewinne der Unternehmen durch immer neue Steuern und Gebühren. Der Bericht der Experten macht deutlich, dass in den vergangenen beiden Jahren eine Reihe von Ländern ihre Steuern für Bergbauunternehmen erhöht haben oder diese zeitnah erhöhen wollen. Genannt werden unter anderem Chile und Australien, zwei klassische Bergbaunationen, die ihre starke Stellung im Sektor ausnutzen. So manch ein Explorationsunternehmen sieht sich dadurch unter Druck. Die Entscheidung, Gelder in anderen Regionen zu investieren, fällt durch solche Aspekte manchmal leichter.

Exploration Update Palopo Gold Project, Indonesia

February 24, 2012 - Reliance Resources Resources Limited (the Company) (TSX:RI) is pleased to update exploration activities at its Palopo Gold Project located on Sulawesi Island, Indonesia.

The Company recently conducted reconnaissance rock chip sampling at the Mangkaluku North and Siguntu Gold Prospect within its Palopo property. (Figure 1). Sampling at Mangkaluku North was designed to test for extensions to quartz-sulphide veins with gold mineralisation intersected by historical diamond drilling at the Mangkaluku Prospect. Sampling at Siguntu took place to locate the source of alluvial gold being worked by local villagers in Lattupa Valley.

These two prospects have the least amount of historical exploration activity with Mangkaluku North defined by a single rock sample which assayed 25 g/t Au.

Exploration is planned to continue along this zone to the north of Mangkaluku and to the south towards the Balantungan Prospect, in preparation for drilling.



At Mangkaluku North (figure 2) a total of 23 reconnaissance rock chip samples were collected from various rock-types over an area 1.5 to 2 kilometres north of Mangkaluku along a major NNW-trending structural zone. Results show that 17 samples contained weak to moderately anomalous levels of gold; 8 samples were strongly gold mineralised >0.5 g/t Au, and three samples returned very high gold values of: 18.9, 21.0 and 29.1 g/t Au.

Gold mineralisation that has been identified to date at the Siguntu prospect (Figure 1) consists of thin but high-grade mesothermal veins along the banks of the Lattupa River. Three rock chip samples were taken and all returned significant gold values with a highest value of 70 g/t Au from altered volcanic rocks cut by numerous quartz veinlets.

Work at the Mangkaluku North prospect at this stage although preliminary and of a reconnaissance nature clearly shows there is potential to find Mangkaluku-style qtz-sulphide veins along the northern extensions of the NNW-trending regional structure.
Exploration is planned to continue along this zone to the north of Mangkaluku and to the south towards the Balantungan Prospect.

Figure 2: Selected rock chip sample locations and values

http://www.relianceresources.com/i/maps/Palopo/Palopo-Rock-Chip-Samples.jpg



Historical exploration at Palopo outlined a series of quartz-sulphide vein prospects hosted by hydrothermally altered igneous and sedimentary rocks. The prospects appear to lie along major regional structures (fig 1). Mineralisation exhibits similarities to the Awak Mas deposit (1.7M ozs Au) approximately 40 km to the south of Palopo.

The majority of historical activity has focused on the Mangkaluku Prospect. Previous work identified three principal mesothermal gold-bearing vein zones: Western, Central and Eastern Zones. Each zone contains multiple gold brearing quartz-sulphide veins with individual veins having strike-lengths up to 500m and varying between 0.5 and 5 metres in width.

Historical trenching intersected wide zones of significant gold mineralisation including;
  • 18.1m @ 13.9 g/t Au
  • 3.1m @ 8.2 g/t Au
  • 18.0m @ 6.8 g/t Au
  • 36.0m @ 6.8 g/t Au
  • 9.0m @ 40.7 g/t Au
  • 18m @ 9 g/t Au
Previous explorers completed 22 diamond drillholes widely spaced along each vein system (Figure 2). Significant intersections include:
  • 8.4m @ 7.5 g/t Au
  • 2.0m @ 9.7 g/t Au
  • 6.0m @ 3.9 g/t Au
  • 2.0m @ 115.0 g/t Au
  • 11.0m @ 2.7 g/t Au
  • 12.0m @ 3.5 g/t Au
  • 2.0m @ 18.3 g/t Au
Currently, the company is active on four of its five Indonesian gold projects; drilling on the Tanoyan Gold Project, surface exploration programs on the Palopo Gold Project, the Kapa Kapa Gold Project and the Roko Gold Project. All the projects have easy access via paved and/or gravel roads and the regional infrastructure is good.

This technical information contained in this release has been reviewed and approved by Mr. John Levings, B.Sc., FAusIMM, director of Reliance Resources Ltd. and a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, under whose direction the exploration programs are being carried out.
