Marketwired Canada
Crazy Horse Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:CZH)(OTCQX:CRZHF) (the "Company") a
Philippines based mineral exploration company, announces assays from the 29th to
the 44th drill holes of the feasibility drilling program on its Taysan
copper-gold porphyry project.
Robert Pease, Chairman of Crazy Horse states, "The on-going positive results
further substantiate the Taysan deposit as a reliable, predictable and growing
deposit. A very low waste to ore ratio and proximity both to port and to
end-users, gives this low-grade deposit a significant competitive advantage for
low cost copper production".
Highlights of Drill Results
On section 19160N, drill hole CZT042 (intersecting 541.4m of 0.24% Cu, 0.08 g/t
Au and 0.78 g/t Ag from 36m to 577.4m, including 164m of 0.36% Cu, 0.09 g/t Au,
1.14 g/t Ag from 286 to 450m) confirms the deeper continuation (from 252m -
398m) of the "Taysan Breccia", a magmatic hydrothermal breccia unit occurring at
the top of mineralised diorite porphyry intrusives. Taysan Breccia usually
occurs in close proximity to quartz magnetite veining and the two styles
probably form a continuum of potassic alteration.
On section 19200N, drill hole CZT029 (intersecting 324.5m of 0.27% Cu, 0.04 g/t
Au and 0.94 g/t Ag from 23.5m to 348m) is a deep drill hole to the base of the
24 year pit design. CZT029 confirms the existence of copper mineralization from
the base of tuff (20m thick) to 612m which corresponds with the known extent of
copper mineralization below the 24 year pit design.
On section 19520N, drill hole CZT037 (144m of 0.34% Cu, 0.10 g/t Au and 1.44 g/t
Ag from 142m to 286m) intersected Taysan Breccia and the associated quartz
magnetite and sulphide veins containing higher grade copper and gold
mineralization. This drill hole is mineralised to the end of hole where 21m of
0.28% Cu, 0.11 g/t Au, 0.73 g/t Ag and 29ppm Mo was encountered from 376 to
397m, which corresponds well with assays from drill hole CZT001.
A summary of the results from holes CZT029 to CZT044 is as follows:

Summary of Drilling Results
On section 19760N drill hole CZT040 confirms the copper mineralization reported
in the nearby Benguet and Freeport drill holes.
On section 18800N drill holes CZT031 extends the known copper mineralization up
to the base of the tuff (43m thick) and CZT035 shows a zone of waste in the
south east corner of the proposed open pit.
On section 18860N drill holes CZT034 and CZT036 continue to confirm the
existence of flat lying layered copper mineralization and waste zones and help
with their definition. CZT034 bottomed in copper mineralization beneath the 10
year pit boundary confirming previously reported grades in nearby BT054.
On section 18920N drill holes CZT033 and CZT043 confirm continuous copper
mineralization from the base of the tuff (45m thick) to the end of the hole
below the 10 year pit boundary.
On section 18980N drill hole CZT044 confirms continuous copper mineralization
from the base of the tuff (40m thick) to the end of the hole, below the 10 year
pit boundary. CZT030 also shows strong intersections of copper mineralization
from the base of the tuff and helps define the contact of the intrusive with
volcanogenic sediments, or country rock, where copper grades are generally below
ore grade.
On section 19040N drill hole CZT039 confirms continuous copper mineralization
from the base of the tuff (40m thick) to the end of the hole, below the 10 year
pit boundary. CZT039 was a twin of CZT024 which encountered a large faulted zone
at the margin of the intrusive and failed to get acceptable core recovery.
CZT039 achieved acceptable core recovery.
On section 19100N drill hole CZT032 confirms near surface copper mineralization,
and the existence of an internal waste zone known from other sections. It also
intersected a deeper copper mineralized zone from 172m - 310m, which was also
noted in drill holes CZT022 and CZT027, also on that section. Drill hole CZT032
also confirms the contact between intrusive rock and the volcanogenic sediments,
occurring at a depth of 372m.
Sampling Protocols
Drilling is carried out by Quest Exploration Drilling (Philippines) Inc. using
Edson 3000 and LF70 drill rigs and a triple tube diamond core drilling system.
All holes are started in PQ (150-200m) then continued in HQ. All core is split
using a diamond-bladed drill-core saw and always sampled from the (true) left
side of the core. The remaining half of the core is sealed in plastic bags in a
nitrogen atmosphere and stored in a covered, guarded core shed. Core samples are
bagged in new polyethylene, UV stable plastic bags, sealed with a plastic tie,
numbered outside and have a tag placed inside the bag. All samples are
accompanied by Asian Arc personnel from site to the McPhar Laboratory under
secure "Chain of Custody" procedures. Samples are crushed to 85% less than 2mm
then 1kg is split out and pulverised in an LM2 Puck and Bowl Pulveriser to 90%
less than 75 micrometers. Gold is assayed by Fire Assay (50g charge) with AAS
finish (PM6). Cu, As, Mo, Feand S are assayed by ore grade analysis, 3 Acid (HCl
/ HNO3 / HClO4) Digest with ICP-AES finish (ICP-2). Ag is analysed by ore grade
analysis (HNO3 / HClO4) digest with AAS finish (2A1/AAS). Sample rejects are
returned from the McPhar Laboratory under secure "Chain of Custody" procedures
by Asian Arc staff and also stored in the core shed in heat sealed plastic bags
in a nitrogen atmosphere. McPhar Geoservices (Phil), Inc. is ISO 17025:2005
accredited and is a member of the International Intertek Laboratory Group.
Taysan Project
A National Instrument 43-101 compliant technical report by Mining Associates
dated effective March 11, 2011 and entitled "Mineral Resource Estimate and
Preliminary Economic Assessment Taysan Project" can be viewed under the
Company's profile on SEDAR (www.sedar.com).
The Taysan Project contains acopper-gold porphyry deposit with an inferred
resource, and is comprised of two mining exploration permits and three mining
exploration permit applications (permits: EP-IVA-005 and EP-IVA-016, and permit
applications: EPA-IVI-108, EPA-IVI-111 and EPA-IVA-081) over five contiguous
claim blocks covering a combined total area of 11,254 hectares. The Taysan
Project hosts a large and only partly explored copper-gold porphyry deposit
similar to other copper-gold porphyry deposits previously mined in the
Philippines. The Taysan Project is located in southern Luzon, Philippines in a
well-developed mining province and readily accessible by road located 20km east
of the provincial capital and deep water commercial port of Batangas City. The
Company is currently conducting a Feasibility study under the management of AMEC
Minproc Limited, which remains on track and on schedule.
Brian Lueck, Director and V.P. Exploration of the Company, is the qualified
person who has reviewed the geological data summarized in this news release on
behalf of the Company.
