Central Sun Mining Inc.: High Grade Gold Intersected at Orosi; New Resource Estimation in Progress for Limon & Orosi |
TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Nov. 17, 2008) - Central Sun Mining Inc. ("Central Sun" or the "Company") (TSX:CSM)(TSX:CSM.WT)(AMEX:SMC) is pleased to provide the final results from its successful 2008 exploration program at the Limon and Orosi Mine areas and the Mestiza-La India project in Nicaragua.
"The 2008 exploration program has been very successful; we have achieved our objectives of outlining new gold zones that will likely significantly increase the economic mineral resources in the two mining areas. We have developed a much greater understanding of the nature and distribution of the gold mineralization within these extensive epithermal systems which will allow for more efficient and focussed exploration in the future. We have identified a number of priority target areas for the 2009 exploration program. Infrastructure upgrades and technical training have been ongoing throughout the year and a strong professional exploration team of Nicaraguan personnel has been developed. A new resource estimation is underway for the new gold zones in both mining areas." commented Dr. Bill Pearson, P.Geo., Executive Vice President Exploration.
A conference call is scheduled for analysts and investors on Monday, November 17, 2008 at 2 p.m. (EST) to discuss exploration, operations and Q3 2008 financial results.
Orosi Mine Area
The Orosi Mine is an open pit mine that has produced 260,000 ounces of gold and currently has a Proven and Probable mineral reserves primarily in the Mojon-Crimea zone of 11.0 million tonnes at 1.44 grams of gold per tonne containing 510,000 ounces of gold (see Press Release dated May 8, 2008). Central Sun is currently converting the Orosi open pit mine from a heap leach operation to a conventional milling operation that will improve gold recoveries from approximately 40% to over 90%. The 2008 exploration program focussed on testing gold mineralization targets that could add resources and reserves within five (5) kilometres of the processing plant.
Exploration Diamond drilling totaling 13,796 metres in 82 holes was completed in 2008 in the Orosi Mine area. Targets tested as shown below in Figure 1 include the following areas: San Juan (30 holes); Los Angeles (3 holes); Quernos do Oro (10 holes); Mojon SW and NE Extensions (17 holes); Victoria-Santa Maria (14 holes); and Gobierno (8 holes).
San Juan is a potential new higher grade open pit mining target located 5 kilometres south of the processing plant as shown in Figure 1. As previously reported (see press release September 8, 2008), the results of the initial wide-spaced drilling of 12 holes totaling 2,036 metres over an approximate 800 metre strike length were very positive. Follow-up definition drilling at San Juan confirmed the new gold zone; sixteen (16) holes totaling 2,000 metres at spacings of approximately 50 metres by 50 metres have been completed. Complete results from these holes are given in Table 1 and shown in Figure 2, a vertical longitudinal section. Highlights are as follows:
- 58.69 g Au/t (18.58 g/t with highs cut to 25 g/t) over a true width of 4.4m in SJ-08-14
- 38.58 g Au/t (14.42 g/t with highs cut to 25 g/t) over a true width of 2.8m in SJ-08-15
- 14.45 g Au/t (4.30 g/t with highs cut to 25 g/t) over a true width of 7.7m in SJ-08-16
- 7.68 g Au/t over 2.7m true width in SJ-08-18
- 4.17 g Au/t over 3.5m true width in SJ-08-21
- 4.04 g Au/t over 5.0m true width in SJ-08-22
- 4.51 g Au/t over 4.2m true width in SJ-08-28
The Los Angeles vein structure located adjacent to San Juan and probably representing a related splay structure adds potential magnitude to the new San Juan gold zone (see Figure 1). Three (3) holes totaling 565 metres as previously reported, tested targets at shallow depths in the Los Angeles target area. Complete results from these holes are given in Table 1. Highlights are as follows:
- 13.04 g Au/t (12.31g/t with highs cut to 25g/t) over 5.0 m true width in AN-08-02 (at a vertical depth of 30 metres).
- 2.61 g Au/t over 4.5 m true width in AN-08-01 (at a vertical depth of about 20 m).
Drill testing of four (4) holes totaling 796 metres to test potential splay structures of the Mojon-Crimea structure in the Santa Elena (Desconocida) area approximately two (2) kilometres northeast of the milling facility (within circle of Mojon NE area shown in Figure 1) returned excellent results as follows:
- 13.49 g Au/t (8.42g/t with highs cut of 25 g/t) over 2.1m true width in DES-08-03
- 11.77 g Au/t (6.09g/t with highs cut to 25 g/t) over a true width of 4.0m in DES-08-02
- 4.44 g Au/t over a true width of 2.3m and 7.20 g Au/t over a true width of 1.5m in DES- 08-01
Geological mapping and the three(3) wide spaced exploration drill holes confirmed that the NE extension of the Mojon-Crimea structure is truncated by a major east-northeast striking fault in the Santa Elena area near the Gubierno target area where the induced polarization anomalies were outlined. The holes at Gobierno as previously reported confirmed the presence of widespread disseminated pyrite within a variety of hydrothermally clay-altered breccias however these breccias appear to be later stage and unrelated to gold mineralization. Further northeast, the Mojon-Crimea structure re-emerges south of the fault and this area will be a major focus of exploration in 2009.
The Cuernos de Oro structure located 2 kilometres north of the mine has been tested by 10 holes totaling 1,114 metres spaced at approximately 100 metre intervals over a strike length of one(1) kilometre. Results from the ten holes intersected a mineralized gold structure from 1.4 metres to 2.5 metres true width; the best results were 2.08 g Au/t over a true width of 3.0 metres in Hole CO-08-10 and 2.95 g Au/t over a 0.8 metre true width in Hole CO-08-08. This target area will likely be set aside for the small miners to fulfill requirements under Nicaraguan law that 1% of the area of the mining concession be allocated for exploitation by small miners.
Dr. Bill Pearson, Ph.D., Executive Vice President Exploration commented: "The positive results of our 2008 exploration program have confirmed the excellent potential to significantly expand known resources and outline new open pittable gold reserves at Orosi. A block model resource estimation is in progress for San Juan. This zone is open along strike in both directions as well as at depth and represents excellent new mining potential at Orosi. In addition, there is excellent potential to outline additional resources with further drilling on the adjacent Los Angeles target. This area will be a priority target in the 2009 exploration program."
Limon Mine Area
Definition drilling has been completed on the new Santa Pancha southern extension zone as shown on vertical longitudinal section below in Figure 3. The Santa Pancha structure, located about 4 kilometres east of the Limon processing plant, strikes N20E and extends for approximately 2.5 kilometres along strike. The Santa Pancha orebody, which has the highest grade within the Limon Mine area deposits, is currently being mined on the 100 metre level at a reserve grade of approximately 5.6 g Au/t.
In 2008 Central Sun completed 7,055 metres of Diamond drilling in 25 holes. This drilling outlined a mineralized zone that extends at least 500 metres along strike and 150 metres vertically. Gold mineralization occurs within a north-south striking, steeply dipping epithermal quartz vein breccia zone that averages approximately 15 metres thick. The highest grade gold values within this zone are associated with zones of very fine-grained, laminated chalcedonic quartz. Highlights from the 2008 program at Santa Pancha are as follows:
- 5.83 g Au/t (4.99 g/t with highs cut to 25 g/t) over 12.3m true width in LM-08-01
- 4.54 g Au/t over 15.0m true width in LM-08-03
- 7.22 g Au/t over 2.6m true width in LM-08-04
- 6.25 g Au/t over 5.0m true width in LM-08-11
- 7.34 g Au/t over 3.8m true width in LM-08-12
- 8.76 g Au/t (6.21 g/t with highs cut to 25 g/t) over 15.4m in LM-08-13
- 6.70 g Au/t over 6.6m true width in LM-08-14
- 9.83 g Au/t over 6.4m true width in LM-08-19
- 6.05 g Au/t over 18.0m true width in LM-08-21
- 198.69 g Au/t (7.90 g/t with highs cut to 25 g/t) over 5.3 true width in LM-08-22
Dr. Bill Pearson, P.Geo., Executive Vice President, Exploration commented, "The closer spaced drilling has provided much better definition of the distribution of gold mineralization within this extensive structure and we have consistently obtained very good results throughout the exploration drill program. Our experience from underground mining is that the mine grades tend to be higher than those indicated in the drill holes. A block model mineral resource estimate is currently being prepared. The Limon mine department is preparing a conceptual mine plan to outline the exploration drilling and development required in 2009 to bring the new zone into the mineral reserve category."
Mestiza-La India Area
At Mestiza-La India, located 70 kilometres east of Limon, Magnetic, Resistivity and Induced Polarization (IP) surveys have been conducted on 50.6 line kilometres along with geological mapping, sampling, prospecting and data compilation. Geological mapping indicates it is likely that a complete epithermal system is exposed from the lower intrusive at La India 10 kilometres to the southeast to high level quartz veins at Mestiza. Vertically, the system appears to extend from about 500 metres to perhaps as much as 900 metres. Historic production from 1938 to 1955 at La India was 575,000 ounces of gold from 1.73 million tonnes grading 13.4 g Au/t. The Tatiana vein on the Mestiza property contains an inferred mineral resource of 558,000 tonnes at 8.80 g Au/t containing 158,600 ounces of gold (see Technical Report dated March 31, 2008 posted on SEDAR). This vein has now been traced for a strike length of 5km.
Significantly higher resistivity anomalies are associated with all of the major veins that are known on the property including the Tatiana, Espinito, Guapinol, and Constancia-America showings. The strongest resistivity high with a strike length over 800 m is associated with the Guapinol vein in the middle of the Mestiza-La India property. This anomaly persists to the maximum depth sampled in both the resistivity and chargeability data. A north-south trending resistive structure is located in the previously unexplored southwest part of the grid. This trend is potentially the northward strike extension of the La India vein.
The geophysical surveys resulted in eight (8) significant targets being outlined for drilling including the Guapinol, Espinito, Norte de La India, and Tatiana anomalies. Geological mapping and sampling has confirmed the presence of gold mineralized quartz veins in the areas of these anomalies. A particular focus has been on defining areas with potential conjugate veins sets where a greater density of veining could yield potential open pittable targets. Data from this work is currently being compiled; assays on a number of the samples are pending. A 2,500 m drill program was planned to evaluate these anomalies in 2008 however it has been deferred until later.
SAMPLING, ASSAYING AND QUALITY CONTROL
The core (NQ 47.6 mm) was logged, photographed and then sawn in half with one-half sent to the laboratory for analysis and the other half retained and stored on site. All core samples were prepared and assayed at the Company's Limon Mine laboratories. The Limon mine laboratory has a separate preparation circuit for exploration samples so that these are prepared and analyzed separately from run-of-mine samples.
The Limon Mine laboratory uses normal industry procedures. The entire half-core samples are crushed to pass 10-mesh-size sieve, a 1/4 split is then pulverized to have greater than 90% passing the 200-mesh-sized sieve to produce a 100 gram homogenized sub-sample. A one-assay ton aliquot (a 29.2 gram sub-sample) is used for fire assaying with an atomic absorption (AA) or gravimetric finish to determine gold concentration. Internal quality control includes the use of blanks, duplicates and standards in every batch of samples. The Company also conducts internal check assaying. Regular external check assays are performed at a certified Canadian commercial laboratory and certified external reference standards are inserted into each batch.

Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors Concerning Estimates of Measured, Indicated or Inferred Resources
The information presented uses the terms "measured", "indicated" and "inferred" mineral resources. United States investors are advised that while such terms are recognized and required by Canadian regulations, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize these terms. "Inferred mineral resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or other economic studies. United States investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of measured or indicated mineral resources will ever be converted into mineral reserves. United States investors are also cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource exists, or is economically or legally mineable.
