I can post the NR <<gg>> got it as an email. But can someone please explain the numbers? Are they good, bad, indifferent?
All the best,

News Release
MILLENNIUM DISCOVERY DRILL UPDATE #3
COPPER/GOLD PROJECT CHILE
Rock Resources is pleased to release interim results on the core drilling program on its Coiron Property, in north central Chile. The company has received results for the first six of nine holes drilled to test the mineralization under our secondary targets of Cerro Carmen and Cerro Macote, areas of historical underground mining. An interesting geophysical target discovered during preliminary surface exploration this year was also drilled. This secondary target area is separated from the main Mt Tacho porphyry copper-gold target by a large regional fault. As reported on April 26, 2R000, Rock has completed drilling over its secondary targets and has moved the drill to its primary Mt Tacho target where it is presently working.
The first five holes (C00-8 to C00-12) within the secondary target tested a large induced polarization (IP) geophysical anomaly located during surface field exploration prior to drilling this year. This 1,000 metre by 150 metre anomaly has a distinct signature with very high chargeability and also very high resistivity, indicative of a quartz rich body containing abundant chargeable minerals such as pyrite and chalcopyrite. Since the adjacent Cerro Carmen and Cerro Macote mine workings were alleged to be mined for gold mineralization, it was believed that this geophysical anomaly could indicate the location of a large bulk tonnage gold deposit. All of the drill holes reported copper mineralization as chalcopyrite.
The next four holes (C00-13 to C00-16) were drilled to test the Cerro Macote and Cerro Carmen underground mine workings and check the copper mineralization on the road showing. Visual estimates suggest that these holes intersected extensive hydrothermal alteration with significantly more copper mineralization than intersected in the first five holes.
The results of the drilling are found in the attached table.
