Ming Massive Sulphide Horizon -1806 Zone
The latest in-fill drill results from the underground program have confirmed the plunge extension of the
copper, gold and zinc mineralization over multiple levels. The zone's plunge length has now been defined over
250 metres while the strike length is estimated to be at least 20 metres. 3D modeling of all drill holes has
allowed Rambler's geologists to interpret the true thickness of the 1806 zone to be approximately 10 metres.
Drill bays are also ready on the 1400 level and the 1050 level where the diamond drill is set up to further
delineate the zone so that this information can be included in the NI43-101 resource update due to be released
in calendar 1Q2009.
In reviewing the historical mine data (pre-1982 and non NI43-101 compliant) a face sample on the 2200 level of
15.6 g/t Au over 2.74m (9 feet) is believed to be the 1806 Zone. Rambler plans to target this area as part of
the new development out to the 1807 Zone (see below). If successful, the new interpreted plunge length of the
1806 zone will possibly be in excess of 1,000 metres remaining open at depth.
New Underground Development - 1807 Zone
Plans have been made to commence development on the next access drift to the 1807 zone. This is the second
drift accessing the high grade mineralization and will be used as an exploration drift and then production
platform once the mine is back in operation.
Diamond drill hole RM08-20m, which returned 4.0 metres of 6.3 % copper and 2.1 g/t gold, was the deepest
surface hole included in the measured resource of the 1807 zone. (see Rambler press release 28th February 2008)
Once the development is completed, underground drill access will be available to further test the down plunge
extension of this exceptional high grade mineralization.
George Ogilvie, P.Eng and Chief Executive Officer, Rambler commented;
"We are very pleased by the latest drilling results which confirms our belief that there could be a significant
gold resource in excess of the 155,000 ounces of gold currently defined within our NI43-101 resource estimate.
Importantly this potential resource could be mined in the mine's early years for a relatively low cost and thus
further improve project economics and returns for shareholders."
