Drill hole EM10-45, located over a kilometre southeast of hole EM10-28, intersected three
mineralized horizons within the C Zone in similarly altered "Mine Series" rocks as those defining
the A and B Zones. Hole 45 intersected 4.3 metres of altered, visible-gold-bearing, mineralized
(pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite) basalt and rhyolite tuff cut by quartz veining in the upper part of the
hole from 128.4 to 132.7 metres. This unit is followed by a 2.7-metre-wide mineralized zone
from 143.4 to 146.1 metres down the hole, consisting of altered rhyolite tuff with quartz veining,
one grain of visible gold and minor pyrrhotite and pyrite. In turn, this zone is proceeded by an
8.0-metre-wide interval of the main mine series rocks from 220.0 to 228.0 metres depth,
composed of highly altered ultramafic rocks and rhyolite tuff with layers of massive pyrrhotite
and chalcopyrite. Assay results for this hole and several others are pending.
Dr. Donald J. Robinson, President and CEO of Eastmain stated, "Although assays for asubstantial number of drill holes are currently pending, we are impressed with the first phase ofdrilling at the Eastmain Mine property. Drilling has intersected a number of mineralized intervals
of significant thicknesses in all three zones of the Eastmain Gold Deposit. Surface exploration
has also confirmed the potential for additional discoveries along the mine trend.”
