Redcorp Ventures Ltd.: Tulsequah Drilling Intersects New Massive Sulphide Lens

biz.yahoo.com

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--REDCORP VENTURES LTD. (RDV-TSX) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that the latest drill hole from the ongoing drill program at the Tulsequah Chief project in northwestern BC has intersected a significant thickness of massive sulphide mineralization in what is interpreted to be a new massive sulphide lens. The Tulsequah Chief property is owned and operated by Redfern Resources Ltd. - the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary.
Drill hole TCU03085 intersected just over 8 meters of massive sulphide which is interpreted to lie stratigraphically above and to the west of the main sulphide deposit. Assays for this intersection are pending. This new lens remains open for expansion to the west and down-plunge. Re-interpretation of historical drill hole data suggests that this new mineralized horizon was also intersected by two previous holes, TCU89016 (8.5 meters at 1.24% zinc) and TCU90027 (3.4 meters at 5.47% zinc and 72.56 gpt silver). The longitudinal section posted on Redfern's website (www.redfern.bc.ca) has been updated to show the locations of these holes. The intersection in previous hole TCU90027 lies just over 200 meters down-plunge from the new intersection in hole TCU03085, and additional holes are planned to determine if this mineralization is contiguous.

Redfern considers this new sulphide lens discovery provides significant potential for resource additions for the project.

In addition to the above, assays have now been received for hole TCU03081 which was drilled to explore extensions of the known sulphide lenses. TCU03081 intersected the mineralized horizons between 50 and 70 meters down-dip from hole TCU03079. Assay results from this hole and for the earlier drill-holes which correlate with the intersection in hole TCU03085 are given in the table below.
