Drilling expands Pit 3 mineralization and intersects 119 feet of 2.1% cu and 23 g/t ag in the Oriole Deposit
Copper Mountain Mining Corporation ("CMMC" or the "Company") is pleased to provide results from its on-going exploration program, where results continue to add to, and upgrade resources. Successful drill results have encouraged the Company to expand the 2008 drill program to 60,000 meters (197,000 feet). The objectives of the drilling program have been to increase the size and grade of the overall resource; particularly in areas adjacent to and below the designed Super-pit area, and to discover new zones of mineralization. The discovery of new areas of mineralization has been greatly aided by the Titan 24 Geophysical Survey which outlined substantial areas of high-chargeability both near surface and at depth. Results of the drill program will be incorporated into a new resource estimate planned for completion by year end.
