War Eagle drills 18 m of 16.11% Zn at Tres Marias

2006-10-18 15:19 ET - News Release

Mr. Terence Schorn reports

WAR EAGLE MINING COMPANY REPORTS FURTHER HIGH GRADE ZINC AND GERMANIUM ASSAYS

War Eagle Mining Company Inc. is releasing a second batch of assay results from its underground high-grade zinc and germanium mineralization at the Tres Marias mine in Mexico. Assay results continue to extend the lateral potential for additional tonnage within the Tres Marias mine with encouraging drill intersections of up to 18 metres (59 feet) and ending in mineralization. Drill samples were obtained from percussion drill holes which are being horizontally drilled into the stope walls of the mine. The percussion drilling program is continuing into walls of the underground stopes.

Assays below have a cut-off grade of 5 per cent zinc or equivalent germanium and are weighted averages.

Underground diamond drilling

Underground diamond drilling is now complete in the adit and level 2 with assay results due shortly. Further holes will be drilled beginning in the next few days for levels 3, 4, 5 and 6.

War Eagle Mining expects to be able to announce a mineral resource calculation at the Tres Marias mine by the end of the year.
