93 metres of
molybdenum for NB Moly in New
Brunswick
Rimouski, September 19, 2007 -
Exploration Puma (PUM-TSXV) has intersected 93 metres of persistent
molybdenum (Mo) mineralization, grading 0.030% Mo, during recent
drilling at its NB Moly Project in New
Brunswick. In fact, the last 93 metres of drilling in
Borehole F07-09 show disseminated molybdenum mineralization cut by occasional
higher-grade quartz-molybdenite veinlets. This borehole bottomed in mineralized
granite grading 0.128% Mo over 1.5 metres.
The two other
boreholes also intersected the same mineralized granite over significant
thicknesses, e.g., Borehole F07-07 with 0.037% Mo over 24.1 metres,
and Borehole F07-08 with 0.033% Mo over 11.1 metres.

The NB Moly property contains seven
molybdenum showings located within a circular granite stock about 12 km2
in area. Sixteen (16) shallow holes were drilled on the granite between 1965
and 1968 by NB Molybdenum Mines Ltd.� Twelve (12) of the 16 boreholes
intersected significant molybdenum mineralization resembling that found in the
current drilling (Press Release of May 24, 2007). There has so far been no deep drilling on
the granite body.
"The
presence of mineralized showings throughout the intrusion, which covers 12 km2,
as well as the thicknesses and grades found by drilling, suggest that the NB
Moly Project could contain a world-class deposit,” notes Andr� Proulx, the
President of Exploration Puma.
The Company is
currently engaged in an exhaustive compilation of data concerning the NB Moly
Project, to identify the next targets for drilling.
Visit our website at
www.explorationpuma.com for more detailed information on this project.
The samples
were analyzed in the ALS Chemex laboratory at Val d’Or, using the atomic absorption
and ICP methods. The contents of
this press release were prepared by Geologist Marcel Robillard, a
Qualified Person as defined in NI 43-101.� The TSX Venture Stock Exchange disclaims any
