News release: International Taurus extends gold zone at Martinere prospect

International Taurus Resources Inc ITS

Thu 11 Mar 99 News Release
Mr. Robert Blakestad reports
The company has received the preliminary gold assay results from four holes
completed to date from the current drilling program on the Martinere "D"
gold prospect in the Detour Lake-Selbaie region of the northern Abitibi
Belt in Northern Quebec. Partial assay results were reported from two holes
on March 1, 1999.
The following table of new results documents that drilling on the property
continues to demonstrate that the new gold zone extends to depth.
The principal target at Martinere "D" is a zone of gold mineralization in
mafic volcanic rocks and quartz porphyry intrusives associated with a
northeast splay off the Detour deformation zone. Previous drilling had
intercepted 12.5 grams per ton over 2.5 metres and 1.07 g/t gold over 12
metres in a discovery hole (97-6) drilled by Cyprus Canada Inc. The
company's current program has offset the initial Cyprus discovery hole
through drilling nine additional holes totalling 1,869 metres to expand
this new discovery.
The current results reveal the existence of a new zone of strong rock
alteration and gold mineralization averaging about 20 metres in width to
the south of and possibly parallel to the zone discovered by Cyprus Canada
in previous drilling. The results received to date are summarized below.

The reported assays are of a preliminary nature and are subject to revision
once verified by the laboratory and check assays. Assay results from more
than 400 samples taken fromn the nine holes are pending from the laboratory
and will be reported when received and evaluated by the company.
The company has suspended drilling until the remaining assay results are
received and evaluated. Drilling at 100-metre spacing along strike of the
current intercepts as well as to depth is planned.
