Entourage Mining Identifies Multiple Uranium Targets on Doran Property With Values up to the Detection Limit of 4.7 Lb/t -- .235 Percent U3O8 Wednesday August 30, 7:30 am ET
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug. 30, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Entourage Mining Ltd. (the ``Company or ''Entourage``) (OTC BB:ETGMF.OB - News) is pleased to announce chemical analysis results of the Doran (north) rock sampling program. The comprehensive rock saw channel sampling program was successful in identifying previously unrecognized uranium targets. A total of twelve anomalies (N, X, L, Y, R, H, K, I, G, E, A, S) were tested. Selected highlights of the chemical results are as follows: ADVERTISEMENT
Anomaly N returned values between 1.77Lb/t U3O8 across 3 meters and over 4.7 Lb/t U3O8 across 1.5 meters (this value is over the detection limit and the Company is waiting for a final results from ACME Laboratories). Another sample returned over 3 Lb/t U3O8 over 1.50 meters.
Anomaly X tested by six samples: one sample above 2 Lb/t U3O8, one sample over 1 Lb/t U3O8, three samples returned values over 0.5 Lb/t U3O8 and 1 sample returned a value less than 0.5 Lb/t U3O8. Sample widths varied between 1 and 5 meters.
Anomaly L is characterized by a north-south trending radioactive pegmatitic ridge approximately 200 meters long by 80 meters wide; a total of 18 rock channel samples were collected, six samples returned values over 1 Lb/t U3O8, 7 samples returned values between 0.5 Lb/t U3O8 and 1 Lb/t U3O8 and 5 samples returned values less than 0.5 Lb/t U3O8. Sample widths varied between 1 and 12 meters.
(All values (t) refer to short tons)
Anomalies A, E, G, H, K R and Y all returned elevated values of U3O8 and the results of these samples are available on the Company web site (http://www.entouragemining.com) under Projects-Doran.
A total of 63 rock saw samples were tested of which four samples returned over 2 Lb/t U3O8, 13 samples returned values of more than 1 Lb/t U3O8, 15 samples returned values greater than .5Lb/t U3O8 and 12 samples above .25Lb/t U3O8. A detailed interpretation of the results is underway by the project geologist Mr. Michel Proulx (a ``Qualified Person'' as that term is defined in NI 43-101) and a drilling program is being designed to test anomalies N, X and L before the end of the season. Since the number of drill targets is high, the Company will not be able to drill all of the anomalies in this drilling season. The Company is planning to drill the remaining anomalies early next season (February 2007); additional holes in the Main Zone, situated in the southern portion of the property, are also planned. The Main Zone was drilled in May 2006. Mr. Proulx has reviewed the technical aspects of this news release.
Entourage management is pleased with the newly recognized radioactive zones as well as the sampling results and the identification of multiple uranium targets on the Doran property with values up to the detection limit of 4.7 Lb/t U3O8 (.235% U3O8). The Doran property is located just north of provincial highway 138 in southeastern Quebec, along the north shore of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, 25 kilometers west of Aguanish and approximately 109 kilometers east of Havre St. Pierre. Hydroelectric lines are located one kilometer north of highway 138.
