Result From Malaga Drilling Come Up Better Than Previously Announced
(firmenpresse) - MONTREAL, QUEBEC -- (Marketwire) -- 11/09/11 -- Malaga Inc. ("MLG") (TSX: MLG)(OTCQX: MLGAF), one of the few tungsten producers outside of China, today announced that subsequent to an internal verification, the drill results for HDD 05-11 (see press release of October 18, 2011) were analysed by another laboratory (ALS Chemex), and re-analysed by the initial laboratory (ACME labs in Vancouver) and they both concluded that the core actually assayed for much higher tungsten grades than previously announced. The corrected results are as follows:
"We are very pleased with these results as they confirm our expectations for the high grade tungsten content of the mantos in the south of the Pasto Bueno mine. Furthermore we will continue to perform enhanced quality controls both internally and with our suppliers of laboratory assays", commented Pierre Monet, President of Malaga.
As indicated in the previous press release, the channel samples from the outcrop were assayed for gold, given the interesting gold content in the drill hole HDD-05-11-1. The best results were obtained in Manto Gossan where a sample had 2.2 g/t Au and 5 of the 10 samples showed content above 0.13 g/t Au. In addition, one sample from Manto Maciste showed 0.8 g/t Au. These results are in line with the results of HDD-05-11 and confirm the presence of potential gold content. Moving forward, all samples will be assayed for gold and other metals to determine their potential.
"In my opinion, the presence of gold and of copper in chalcopyrite, together with tungsten, is very interesting as we continue exploring the mantos to find more and possibly higher concentrations of gold and copper. We are exploring for a skarn at depth, at the contact between limestone-slate and intrusive and this could prove more and more interesting, given the presence of these three important metals: tungsten, gold and copper", said Alonso Sanchez, Chief Geologist of Malaga.
This Press Release has been read and approved by Alonso Sanchez, P. Eng. and Chief Geologist for Malaga Inc. He acts as the qualified person ("QP") for the Company and is a geologist affiliated with the American Institute of Professional Geologists (AIPG).
