Tuesday, June 03, 2008Hawthorne Commences Diamond Drill Program at Frasergold
Hawthorne Gold Corp. ("Hawthorne") (TSX-V: HGC; WKN: A0M55U) and Eureka Resources Inc. ("Eureka") (TSX-V: EUK) are pleased to announce the commencement of the Frasergold drill program. Hawthorne's 2008 exploration and development program at the Frasergold property will utilize two drills focusing on in-fill diamond drilling on the Main Zone and limited step-out drilling along strike. The goal is to gain a better understanding of the size and potential of the deposit and define a National Instrument ("NI") 43-101 compliant gold resource estimate within the Main Zone. The Frasergold property is located in the historic Quesnel Trough area of central British Columbia. A combination of quartz veins and knotted phyllites host gold mineralization containing coarse free gold and finer grained sulphide bearing gold. Previous operators had identified a ten kilometre belt of gold mineralization on the property through drilling, soil sampling, induced polarization ("IP") geophysical surveys and surface exploration. Hawthorne's 2007 due diligence drill program confirmed results from a number of historic drillholes, which verified the potential for developing the Frasergold property. The full extent of the mineralized zone remains to be tested along strike and at depth.Jim Sparling, P.Geo., Hawthorne's Exploration Manager and a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved the technical content of this release.About Eureka Resources Inc.Since its incorporation in 1981, Vancouver-based Eureka Resources Inc. has focused on the exploration and development of natural resource properties in order to create wealth for investors.
