Mineral Mountain Resources Ltd. (“
Mineral
Mountain” or the “
Company”) (TSX.V:MMV)
(OTCQX:MNRLF) is pleased to report that the Company’s planned Phase
I drill program consisting of a minimum of twelve (12) drill holes
totaling approximately 4300 meters started February 7th to test the
down plunge extension of the 300-meter wide
Standby
Mine gold structure partially developed from 1891 to 1909
by underground mining from surface to the 425-foot level. 3D Mag
modelling suggests that this high priority gold target is a large
magnetic body consisting of iron formation-hosted gold
mineralization that may have the potential size to have
district-scale discovery potential.
A total of 12 drill holes ranging between 300m
and 400m deep are planned to intersect the wide Standby Mine gold
structure down plunge from the Standby Mine 425-foot level. The
first drill hole is spotted to intersect this gold structure at
about 100 m below the 425-foot level proximal to hole S-1 drilled
by Getty Oil in 1982. S-1 intercepted altered and
locally quartz flooded iron formation with 3 - 10% pyrrhotite and
trace to 5% arsenopyrite from 33.83m – 71.32m (111.0’ – 234.0’) for
a core interval of 37.5m (near true width). Visible gold was
observed in 4 different relatively short intervals. The entire
interval was sampled and much of it had been sampled twice. No
historical assay results are available for the remaining
one-quarter core, but it is a very impressive looking
intercept.
Up plunge from hole S-1, an historic underground
drill hole, BLG-UG03, designed the test the Standby Mine horizon 75
meters below the 125-foot level, intersected 4.61 grams per
tonne across 12.19 meters. A channel sample collected from
one of the mineralized gold zones of quartz flooded iron formation
on the 425-foot levels assayed 6.22 g/t Au across
10.5m. Between 1986 and 1988, Homestake drilled
three separate “widely spaced step out” cross sections down plunge
from the Standby Mine shaft. The “step out” cross sections were
designed to intersect the major gold bearing fold structure at
750-meter intervals down plunge. Remarkably, in 1987, Homestake
SM87-3A, located 1500 meters laterally and about
560 meters vertically and 1500m down plunge from the Standby Mine
deposit, intersected a broad interval of gold mineralization within
a thick unit of iron formation, including a high grade interval
grading 10.29 grams per tonne across 3.1
meters.
The Standby Mine patents are
located approximately 26 kilometers (16 miles) south of the world’s
largest, richest iron formation hosted gold deposit, the Homestake
Mine, which produced over 40,000,000 ounces of gold from 11 Ledges
of ore averaging approximately 10.89 g/t Au (0.350 opt) over
the life of the mine from 1876 to 2001.
Qualified Persons
The technical information in this news release
has been prepared in accordance with Canadian regulatory
requirements set out in National Instrument 43-101 and reviewed and
approved by Nelson W. Baker, P.Eng., the President and CEO of
Mineral Mountain Resources Ltd. and a Qualified Person for this
project. All exploration activities at the Rochford Project
are carried out under the strict supervision of Kevin Leonard,
P.Geo., also a Qualified Person for this project.
About Mineral Mountain Resources and the
Rochford Gold Project
Mineral Mountain Resources Ltd., through its
wholly owned subsidiary Mineral Mountain Resources (SD) Inc., is
focused on the exploration of its 100%-owned Homestake
South Project situated in the Rochford District along the
highly prospective Homestake Gold Belt in the
Black Hills of South Dakota, U.S.A. The Rochford Project
covers approximately 7,500 acres and straddles five major trends of
structurally thickened auriferous iron formation that host
ledge-type gold mineralization.

Forward looking information
This release contains “forward-looking
information” within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities
legislation (“Forward-looking information”). Forward-looking
information includes, but is not limited to, statements that
address activities, events or developments that the Company expects
or anticipates will or may occur in the future, including such
things as future business strategy, competitive strengths, goals,
expansion, growth of the Company's businesses, operations, plans
and with respect to exploration results, the timing and success of
exploration activities generally, permitting time lines, government
regulation of exploration and mining operations, environmental
risks, title disputes or claims, limitations on insurance coverage,
timing and possible outcome of any pending litigation and timing
and results of future resource estimates or future economic
studies.
Often, but not always, forward-looking
information can be identified by the use of words such as “plans”,
“planning”, “planned”, “expects” or “looking forward”, “does not
expect”, “continues”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “forecasts”,
“intends”, “potential”, “anticipates”, “does not anticipate” or
“belief” or describes a “goal” or variation of such words and
phrases or state that certain actions, events or results “may”,
“could”, “would”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be
achieved.
Forward-looking information is based on a number
of material factors and assumptions, including, the result of
drilling and exploration activities, that contracted parties
provide goods and/or services on the agreed timeframes, that
equipment necessary for exploration is available as scheduled and
does not incur unforeseen break downs, that no labour shortages or
delays are incurred, that plant and equipment function as
specified, that no unusual geological or technical problems occur,
and that laboratory and other related services are available and
perform as contracted. Forward-looking information involves known
and unknown risks, future events, conditions, uncertainties and
other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or
achievements to be materially different from any future results,
prediction, projection, forecast, performance or achievements
expressed or implied by the forward-looking information. Such
factors include, among others, the interpretation and actual
results of current exploration activities; changes in project
parameters as plans continue to be refined; future prices of gold;
possible variations in grade or recovery rates; failure of
equipment or processes to operate as anticipated; the failure of
contracted parties to perform; labour disputes and other risks of
the mining industry; delays in obtaining governmental approvals or
financing or in the completion of exploration, as well as those
factors disclosed in the company's publicly filed documents.
Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors
that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ
materially from those described in forward-looking information,
there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results
not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no
assurance that forward-looking information will prove to be
accurate, as actual results and future events could differ
materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly,
readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking
information.
