Exploration update: The majority of holes have intersected

This press release is a summary. The full report is found on the company’s website. Endomines has carried out further exploration drilling at its properties along Karelian Gold Line, near Ilomantsi, in Eastern Finland. The mineral rights of the drilled properties are fully owned by the Company. Endomines is pleased to release assay results received until 20th of August 2013 received. The present year has been very favourable time for exploration works due to the general recession in mining business. Drilling rigs and assay services have been available with reasonable rates when most companies have reduced their exploration programs. This recent drilling stage 1 aimed to discover new or extend the previously discovered target areas. So far 61 diamond core holes, 7,799 m in total, have been drilled. Some 6,000 meter of cores has been logged and 5,091 samples have been sent for assays. Assay results of 3,990 samples have been received until 20th of August. Almost 90% of all exploration drill holes have intersected gold mineralizations, which clearly confirm the great ore potential of Karelian Gold Line. The drillings have been carried out at and in the vicinity of Hosko, Rämepuro and Muurinsuo-Korvilansuo areas. "It is very encouraging that the majority of the holes across the whole area have intersected gold mineralization. This confirms our view that large scale ore forming processes have been in place along Karelian Gold Line. We are looking very positively forward to our future exploration program. Korvilansuo -area will remain our main target as it has returned good grade intersections close the bedrock-surface. However, we will also continue exploration of other targets so that we can fully explore the whole potential of the Karelian Gold Line ", comments Markus Ekberg, CEO of Endomines. The second drilling stage has started and the aim of that is to extend the current mineral reserves at Pampalo, Rämepuro and Hosko areas as well as extend the previous mineral resources at Korvilansuo-Muurinsuo area. The Stage 2 drilling will be carried out with 3 drilling rigs to speed up the performance. The total amount of drilling meters during Stage 2 campaign is estimated to be around 9,000 m. Other The Karelian Gold Line Environmental Impact Assessment Study has been filed and the authority statement is expected to be issued during autumn 2013. The study covers the whole 40 km long Karelian Gold Line and includes all currently known deposits or advanced exploration targets Hosko, Kuivisto, Rämepuro, Muurinsuo, Korvilansuo and Kuittila. The environmental permit application for the Rämepuro deposit has been filed in June 2013. The permit application was prepared by Pöyry Finland Oy.
