Marketwired
Nortec Minerals Corp. (TSX VENTURE: NVT)(PINK SHEETS:
NMNZF)(FRANKFURT: WMQ) ("Nortec" or the "Company") is pleased to
announce assay results from the recently completed exploration
drill programme on the Marttalanniemi prospect located in the
north-central part of the Seinajoki Gold Project in western
Finland. The Company has an option to earn a 100% interest in the
Seinajoki Project from Akkerman Exploration B.V. ("AEbv"), a
private company based in the Netherlands.
Highlights:
-- 4 metres @ 13.52 g/t Gold from 52 metres (Hole MTL10-007)
-- 6 metres @ 2.19 g/t Gold from 12 metres (Hole MTL10-004)
-- 5 metres @ 2.10 g/t Gold from 51 metres (Hole MTL10-001)
A total of 9 holes, for 750 metres, were drilled on the
Marttalanniemi prospect testing the mineralized drill intercepts
confirmed by Nortec during the re-sampling and relogging programme
of the archive drill core from the holes drilled by the Geological
Survey of Finland ("GTK"). Results from the Nortec drilling
returned higher gold grades than from the historical GTK drilling
over the Marttalanniemi area (see Nortec news release April 14,
2010). All holes were drilled to the north-east at a dip of 45
degrees.

Samples were submitted to ALS Chemex in Outokumpu for Ore grade
Gold by fire assay fusion and AAS finish (FA-AAS), along with a
multi-element (48 elements) acid digestion-acid leach process with
an ICP-MS or ICP-AES finish. Best intercepts were calculated with a
cut-off grade of 0.5g/t Gold. NSI = No significant intercept. Sb =
Antimony. Zn = Zinc.
The best intercept of 4 metres @ 13.52g/t Gold is within a 15
metre wide central mineralized zone ("C-Zone") that can be traced
along surface for a nominal 500m along a northwest-southeast trend.
Drilling has only tested the top 30 metres below natural surface
and is open at depth to the south-west and along strike to both the
northwest and southeast.
The C-Zone is one of 3 identified high grade mineralized lenses
within the northwest-southeast trending, 100-metre wide
Tervasmaki-Kalliosalo-Marttalanniemi ("TKM") shear zone. The other
two identified mineralized zones are the northern zone ("N-Zone")
and southern zone ("S-Zone"). Drilling to date has identified gold
mineralization hosted within a plagioclase-porphyry that is exposed
from surface. The Nortec geological team have interpreted that the
C-Zone and S-Zone should intersect the mica schist wall rock from
40 to 60 metres below natural surface. Based on identified
structural and lithological controls, alteration and
silicification, this zone is considered to be a favourable site to
contain significant gold mineralization and will be targeted by
further drilling in the next phase of drilling.
Commenting on the announcement, Mr. Mohan Vulimiri, Chairman of
Nortec stated, "We are very pleased with these results as they
confirm our belief that Seinajoki hosts numerous zones of high
grade gold mineralization that follow along the quartz veins and
stockworks of the property. Even the sampled wall rock between the
two zones returned highly anomalous gold values ranging between 0.2
to 0.4g/t Gold. We are anxious to continue drilling at the "N" and
"S" zones, as well as follow-up of this most recent discovery of
the C-Zone. Based on the historical GTK data and the confirmation
drilling we have completed to date, we continue to be encouraged by
our field results and will be incorporating this latest round of
data into our future exploration plans at the property."
Further information about these results regarding the
Marttalanniemi Prospect, including drill hole collar tables, best
drill-hole assay intercept tables, drill plans and sections are
available in a presentation under the Seinajoki page on the Nortec
website www.nortecminerals.com.
The Seinajoki Gold Project is located in western Finland and is
made up of over 5,500 hectares of contiguous claims covering the
TKM Shear Zone; the Sikakangas-Tulisilma district and the Ylijoki
Shear Zone. The other major targets, Sikakangas and Ylijoki, will
be included in future drill campaigns upon completion of further
surface sampling and geological mapping along with the completion
of the re-logging and re-sampling of archive drill core stored at
the Geological Survey of Finland's storage facility located in
southern Finland.
