SIGNIFICANT DRILL INTERSECTIONS HOLE A2-009, ANOMALY A2, CROYDON 21 January 2008
KEY POINTS
Significant intersections obtained from Hole A2-009 are as follows; 13.0m (300.0m to 313.0m) at 1.6inc, 95 g/t silver, 0.25% lead and 0.048% tin 3.0m (230.0m to 233.0m) at 1.35% zinc, 120 g/t silver, 0.65% lead 2.0m (261.0m to 263.0m) at 1.85% zinc, 672 g/t Ag, 2.10% lead
Gold Aura is highly encouraged by these and previous drill intersections that show significant polymetallic vein style mineralisation at Anomaly 2 extends over a zone at least 600 metres wide by 1250 metres long.
DETAILS
Assay results for Hole A2-009 have now been received. The hole was designed to test Anomaly A2, 400 metres along strike to the west from discovery Hole A2-001 and 200 metres along strike to the west from Hole A2-006. The 423.7 metre hole was drilled to the north on an inclination of 60 degrees.
Significant polymetallic vein style mineralisation (zinc-silver-lead-tin dominant) was intersected in the basement from its commencement below the overlying sediments at 131.6 metres to the end of the hole. The entire 292.70 metre basement intersection was found to contain; 0.245% zinc and 19.4 g/t silver
A weakly altered micro-diorite intrusive was intersected in the hole but is distinctively less mineralised than the other basement shales. The hole ended in mineralisation at 423.7 metres.

All significant intersections obtained from the drilling at Anomaly A2 are listed in appended Table 1.
The intersections obtained in Hole A2-009 indicate that the mineralisation intersected in discovery Hole A2-001 (11.0m at 6.33% zinc and 67 g/t silver; 5.05m at 8.00% zinc and 180 g/t silver) and Hole 2-006 (10.0m at 2.30% zinc, 144 g/t silver and 0.89% lead and 20.0m at 4.2% zinc and 49 g/t silver) extends for at least a further 200m to the west; a total of 600 metres. Assays are awaited from the last remaining other hole, A2-008.

FORWARD PROGRAM
Interpretation of the data obtained from the gravity and induced polarisation (IP) surveys completed at Anomaly A2 is continuing. It is anticipated that this will generate new targets for drill testing during 2008. �
Assays for Hole A2-008 are awaited.� X-ray fluorescence assays for the lower sections of Anomaly A1 Holes A1-001 and A1-002 are also awaited.
One or more joint venture partners are being sought to participate in the Croydon 2008 field programs.
ABOUT GOLD AURA LIMITED
Gold Aura’s principal activity is the global exploration for world class mineral resources. Its current focus is directed towards follow-up investigations of the newly discovered zinc dominant and copper dominant, mineralised zones at Croydon, Queensland, the resource infill drilling program at Gameta in PNG and the commencement of exploration at Sao Chico in Brazil. Gold Aura is also evaluating the results of the 2007 field programs in its gold projects in Kazakhstan and China.
