VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA CANADA -- (IMMEDIATE RELEASE) -- AUGUST 15,
2011
Big Rock Resources Inc. (1BR.F, ISIN CA0894851066, WKN A1JJYB, website -
http://bigrockresources.com) is pleased to announce that all the required
equipment is now on the property for completion of the bulk sampling work
program. The Company will release assay results to its shareholders as
soon as the results are available.
The Company will start bulk testing the property in a systematic method to
establish a comprehensive maximum recovery of the gold and other precious
metals within the gravels. This testing is designed to allow for the
enhancement of the total recovery of Precious metals (gold and platinum
group metals) by adjusting the recovery equipment during the bulk sampling
process.
The recovery equipment is designed not only to recover a very large portion
of the Gold contained on the property but to recover a large portion of the
Platinum Metals that previous sampling has discovered along with the Gold
on the property.
The Joint Venture plans a 60 to 90 test program involving excavated bulk
sampling in up to 12 test pits. The program is designed to verify the gold
content as reported by earlier operators and provide samples for process
design to optimize recovery for the mining campaign planned by the
partners. Reports from earlier evaluation and operation indicates the
gravels on the bar may contain mineable gold grades of approximately .05
ounces per cubic yard.
The companies are looking forward to initial recovery results and will keep
its shareholders updated as the results are forthcoming.
