Centurion Minerals Ltd. announced that findings of a comprehensive compilation of historical exploration have resulted in the interpretation of a high-quality priority gold exploration target on the Newman Property, part of the Company's Casa Berardi West Gold Project located in northeastern Ontario. The gold target is based on a basal till gold anomaly evident in reverse circulation drilling completed in 1987 resulting in a total of 9 heavy mineral concentrate samples returning assay grades > 1 gram per tonne ("g/t") Au including a high sample value of 38 g/t Au. The exploration target area is supported by the occurrence of low level, but strongly anomalous, bedrock gold intersections located in an 'up-ice' position reported in diamond holes drilled dominantly in the 1970s and 1980s.

Based on the compilation of this data, the Company took steps to stake an additional 1,671 hectares (103 claim units) contiguous and to the north and east of the Newman Property providing additional ground for exploration expansion and discovery. The Company is currently receiving and reviewing tenders to complete a high resolution airborne magnetic survey covering the newly assembled Newman land position as the likely next step in exploration targeting. The Company is also considering ground based electrical geophysical surveying to be followed by reverse circulation and diamond drilling.
