Central Sun Commences Exploration Diamond Drilling in Limon Mine Area, Nicaragua
|
TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Jan. 16, 2008) - Central Sun Mining Inc. (TSX:CSM)(TSX:CSM.WT)(AMEX:SMC) announces that it has commenced exploration diamond drilling in the Limon Mine area. A second drill rig has arrived in Nicaragua and is expected to be drilling on targets in the Orosi Mine area next week. A third drill also has been confirmed for April 2008. As previously reported, the exploration program for 2008 is budgeted at $7 million and will include 25,000+ metres of diamond drilling.
The current drilling in the Limon Mine area is testing the down dip and on-strike extension of the Santa Pancha orebody that is currently being mined on the 100 metre level at a rate of 500-600 tonnes per day at a grade of approximately 7 g Au/t. As shown on the attached vertical longitudinal section, the target zone extends for approximately 650 metres along strike from the No. 2 shaft area southwards. The vertical extent of the target zone is between 100 to 150 metres; however, the full potential extent of the epithermal vein system at depth has not been tested and remains open. Historical drilling in three deeper holes in the southern part of the target area intersected significant values of 28.93 g Au/t over 2.3m true width, 7.94 g Au/t over 8.85m true width and 4.57 g Au/t over 28.9 g Au/t over 2.3m true width. A series of six (6) holes as shown on the vertical longitudinal are initially planned to test the target with the first hole LM-08-001 in progress.
Dr. Bill Pearson, P. Geo., Executive Vice President, Exploration said, "The exploration program is moving ahead rapidly. I am very pleased that we have been able to secure three drill rigs that will permit the drilling program to be accelerated. In addition to drilling, we are also planning to carry out both surface and down-hole induced polarization (IP) surveys. Physical property measurements on representative rock samples collected by Dr. Chris Hale, P. Geo., consulting geophysicist, indicate that the IP technique will effectively target both the Limon and Orosi-style mineralization. Exploration technical facilities and infrastructure have also been upgraded in conjunction with training of geological personnel and full implementation of GEMCOM and ArcView software. Geological work including data compilation for all properties, as well as for regional targets, is in progress. We have a very strong exploration team in Nicaragua and have excellent logistical support from our mining personnel."
Conference Call
Central Sun Mining Inc. has scheduled a conference call for analysts and investors on Wednesday, January 30, 2008 at 11:00 a.m. (Eastern) to provide an update on its operations and exploration activities.
Messrs. Peter Tagliamonte, President and Chief Executive Officer; Bill Pearson, Executive Vice President, Exploration; Graham Speirs, Chief Operating Officer and Denis Arsenault, Chief Financial Officer will be available to answer questions during the call.
To participate in the conference call, please dial 416-641-6132 or 1-866-226-1792.
Sampling, Assaying and Quality Control
The core (NQ 47.6 mm) will be 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 will be prepared and assayed at either the Company's Limon or Orosi 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. A second circuit is currently being installed at the Orosi laboratory however no run-of-mine samples are currently being assayed at this facility.
Both the Limon and Orosi Mine laboratories use 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.
Qualified Person
Dr. Bill Pearson, P. Geo, Executive Vice President, Exploration for Central Sun Mining, is the Qualified Person responsible for the management of the exploration program and disclosure of the drill results as defined by National Instrument 43-101. The laboratory process reported herein and the internal quality control information are reviewed regularly by Dr. Pearson. Dr. Pearson has read and approved this news release.

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.
