VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - July 13, 2011) - International Montoro Resources Inc. (News - Market indicators)(PINK SHEETS:IMTFF)(FRANKFURT:O4T) ("Montoro") has received a very positive interpretation of the large airborne anomaly outlined by a Geotech VTEM–electromagnetic airborne survey on its 100% owned "Serpent River" property near Elliot Lake, Ontario. The Company commissioned L.E.Reed ("Reed") Geophysical Consultant Inc. to interpret the airborne survey data. Reed ran the anomaly through a 3 dimensional inversion program (UBC, Mag3D) to develop an understanding of the three-dimensional shape and distribution of the source body for this anomaly. Measurements through a section in the centre of the anomaly show a depth of 300 to 400 meters to the top and as much as 1700 meters from surface to the bottom of the magnetic source body. It appears as a broad sill, possibly an intrusion. The maximum dimensions of the entire inversion block are estimated at 7.8 km EW x 3.45 km NS and 2.025 km from surface.
Attention has been called to the Pecors magnetic anomaly in the report "The Pecors Magnetic Anomaly located under Huronian Sedimentary Cover, a possible Cu-Ni-PGE Target at the Archean-Proterozoic Boundary, Elliot Lake Area", by G. Campbell, MSc.
In 1959 Algom Uranium Mines Ltd. ("Rio Algom") drilled two holes (PW-121) and (PW-122) along the south and southeastern edge of the anomaly, that penetrated the Huronian sediments and encountered underlying basement rocks at depths of 2002 feet (610 meters) and 1477 feet (450 meters) respectively. Information from the drill holes provides some corroboration of the depths from the 3D model.
Further to our news release of June 2, 2011, Reed also suggests trying to recover the drill core, chemical analysis of the source body rocks and downhole EM probing/logging. This may require either new holes or possibly re-entering, cleaning and deepening the old holes further into the basement.
Gary Musil, President, Chief Executive Officer of Montoro states, "We are now in receipt of the third positive review of the Pecors. Management are very encouraged and developing a work program to continue with further testing of this anomaly."
