Tenajon Drilling On Ajax Continues to Intersect Near Surface Molybdenum (Mo) Mineralization

Results include 0.086% Molybdenum over 34.02 Metres and 0.076% Mo over 38.52 Metres

 

Tenajon Resources Corp (TSX-V:TJS) (the ?Company?) today announced that assay results have been received for  the final two holes drilled at its Ajax Property in 2007.  Hole 2007-12 intersected a 143.26 metre intercept averaging 0.058% Mo.  Within the intercept are high grade sections of 34.02 metres averaging 0.086% Mo and 4.87 metres averaging 0.094% Mo.  Hole 2007-13 intersected a 38.52 metre section averaging 0.076% Mo within a 130.01 intercept averaging 0.054% Mo.  Ajax, one of North America?s largest undeveloped molybdenum deposits, is located 14 km north of Alice Arm in northwestern British Columbia.  Infrastructure in the area is very good with both tidewater access and hydro electric power situated at Kitsault 16km to the south. 

 

?The 2007 drill program was successful in defining near surface Molybdenum mineralization accessible from surface,? said Bruce McLeod, President & CEO of Tenajon.  ?Once the updated resource calculation is complete Tenajon will finalize its plans for advancement of the Ajax Property.? 

 

 

In 2007 thirteen drill holes totaling 2,639 metres in length were completed at Ajax.  The holes were concentrated along the northern portion of the deposit within an area identified as having  the lowest strip ratio  of a potential open pit operation.  Assays have now been received for  all of the 2007 drill holes.  The data is presently being compiled in preparation for an updated NI 43-101 compliant mineral resource estimate.  The results for Holes 2007-12 and 13 are summarized below, with additional results from the 2007 drill program being attached.

Hole 2007-12 was drilled orthogonal to a 196.90 metre intercept averaging 0.098% Mo located approximately 140 metres down-dip intersected in Hole 05-1.

 

Hole 2007-13 was located to test the continuity of the northwest trending zone of  molybdenum mineralization approximately 50 metres to the southeast of Hole 07-7 (42.67 metres averaging 0.069% Mo).  Both holes occur outside of the proposed open pit.  Hole 2007-13 intersected significant molybdenum values over the final 130.01 metres with a 38.52 metre long high grade near surface intercept being intersected at 87.48 metres.  Combining the results of the 2007 drill program with those of previous programs, significant molybdenum values have been intersected over a 300 metre strike length along a northwest trend.  

 

A plan showing the Ajax drill hole locations is available in the map gallery on the Company?s website at www.tenajon.com.    

 

The Ajax Property hosts one of North America's largest undeveloped molybdenum deposits. At a 0.04% Mo cut-off the deposit hosts inferred resources of 448 million tonnes averaging 0.063% Mo (623.4 million pounds) and an indicated mineral resource of 38.8 million tonnes averaging 0.064% Mo (56.4 million pounds). The estimate was prepared by Giroux Consultants Ltd., an independent consulting firm (released March 5, 2007). The current price for molybdenum is approximately $32.75 per pound.


The work at the Ajax Property was completed by Apex Geoscience under the supervision of Dave Visagie, P. Geo., Tenajon's Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101.


At the Ajax Property the drill core is sawn into halves with one half being sent for analysis and the other kept for future reference. All samples were prepared and analyzed at Acme Analytical Labs using a 4 acid digestion with analysis by Induced Couple Polarization (ICP). A stringent program of check, blank and duplicate sampling was employed throughout with duplicates standards and blanks being entered into the sample stream at regular intervals. In addition a limited amount of samples are being sent to other labs to determine the reproducibility of the results.
