Drilling at the Bawone Prospect, part of East Asia Minerals" Sangihe Project in Indonesia, continues to intersect significant gold mineralization.

One of the latest drill holes intersected 58.0 metres @ 1.30 grams/tonne gold within a broader interval that returned 128.0m @ 0.82 grams/tonne. Another hole encountered 57.0m @ 1.73 grams/tonne gold, including 36.0m @ 2.50 grams/tonne from near surface.

This shallow epithermal gold mineralized zone remains open along strike in both directions and additional drilling is planned.

Drilling is now testing the Binebase Prospect, 1.2km along strike to the north of Bawone where additional trenching has uncovered 2.00 grams/tonne gold over 62.0m, 1.98 grams/tonne over 45.5m, and 2.28 grams/tonne over 28.5m. These results indicate wide zones of significant epithermal gold mineralization at surface.

Mineralization at Binebase is similar to and possibly contiguous with that at Bawone. Previous East Asia trenching results at Binebase have included up to 32.0m @ 4.18 grams/tonne gold and 38.0 grams/tonne silver.
