Press release (PDF)

Endomines AB (the "Company") is pleased to report preliminary results from the exploration campaign undertaken during 2011 in the vicinity of the Pampalo mining area and along the Karelian Gold Line ("KGL"), in the Hosko, R�mepuro and Korvilansuo areas.  The Karelian Gold line is a 40 km long gold critical Archean greenstone belt located near Ilomantsi, Eastern Finland, where Endomines controls all currently known gold deposits and owns 100% of all mineral rights.   

Several new drilling targets have been generated during the exploration campaign. Two of the new targets have been tested by drilling and in both places gold bearing zones have been intercepted.

The most significant intersection was obtained from the newly discovered Korvilansuo target (some 20 km south from Pampalo processing plant) and yielded 3.07 g/t gold over 27.95 meters, including 4 m with 13.7 g/t  gold (true width not determined, no top cut has been applied).  

The other highlights of drilling campaign are as follows: 11.5 m with 2.7 g/t gold including 4.5 m with 8.2 g/t gold  at Pampalo North West-target (true width not determined, no top cut has been applied).

Just over half of the assays have been analyzed so far, with the remaining results still pending. The delay is due to the scarce availability of laboratory capacity in the face of the recent strong growth of the exploration and mining industry. 

Final results of the whole drilling campaign will be released once all assay results have been received.

Highlights:

• Airborne low-altitude [VTEM] geophysical surveys were completed over the entire permit area. Several new drilling targets have been discovered all over the claimed areas. Two of the new targets have been tested by drilling and both places have yielded gold-bearing intersections.
• During the summer and autumn, a total of 5,400 meters of the planned 7,000-meter drilling campaign 2011 has been completed, with a total of forty-four drill holes. Results are still pending for eighteen of these. A further 2,000 meters of drilling is scheduled to be completed in the near future.
• Core drilling at Porkonen, Finnish Lapland is ongoing. About 400m of the planned 1000 m program has been drilled.
• The mining authorities granted 50 new claim reservations, totaling 36 069 ha, all located on the Karelian  Gold Line
• 86 new exploration licenses, totaling 6 977 ha, have been applied for to secure further exploration possibilities along the Karelian Gold Line.
• A 60 ha extension of the Pampalo mining concession area has been applied for with a view to preparing  the Pampalo NW deposit for production
• An Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) program for the known gold deposits along Karelian Gold Line has been initiated. This process is expected to be completed during the third quarter 2012.

Initial results of the drilling campaign are as follows:

Hosko

Note: Due to the known influence of a nugget effect in the Hosko mineralization, all samples from Hosko  mineralized zones have been sent to Als Chemex for 1 kg screen fire assay testing (Als code Au-SCR24) in order obtain more reliable assay results.

Pampalo NW

Poikop��

Juttuhuuhta

R�mepuro

Korvilansuo

Note 1: No "top cut" has been applied when calculating intersection grades.

Note 2.  It is unclear if any mineral resource can be derived from these drilling results. 

Airborne geophysical surveys were undertaken out by SkyTEM Surveys ApS ,Denmark, and the interpretation of the results, by Astrock Oy, Finland. 

All drilling has been carried out by P�yry Finland Oy using WL-66 (~NQ2) tubes, resulting in cores of 50,5 mm in diameter. The locations of the drill holes have been surveyed using GNSS-GPS equipment. Azimuth and dip deviations have been measured using the Reflex Maxibor Borehole Survey System.

The preparation and assaying of the sawn half-core samples has been in part carried out at the Endomines laboratory at Pampalo, with the rest sent to the ALS Chemex laboratories in Rosia Montana, Romania and Vancouver, Canada. The preparation of the half- core samples for ALS Chemex was undertaken at the ALS Chemex facility in Outokumpu, Finland. 

The sample procedures used were PAL-1000 with FAAS finishing at the Endomines laboratory, and Au-AA26 (50g) at the ALS Chemex laboratory. Any assays with gold grades exceeding 3 g/t were re-assayed using the AU-GRA22 method. All gold grades obtained at the Endomines Pampalo mine site laboratory have been or will be re-checked at the ALS Chemex laboratory.

Normal QA/QC (Quality Assurance/Quality Control) procedures were followed for all the samples with standards, blanks and duplicates routinely submitted as part of the sampling program.  The quality of sample preparation, security, integrity and chemical assays was equal to, or exceeded  current industrial standards and the requirements of JORC-code.

Mr Liikanen owns 1 221 556 (1.54%) Endomines AB shares and is employed by the Company as Chief Technical Officer. The data supporting this news release has been included in a Surpac database and has been verified against the original laboratory assay certificates.
