Nine Mile Metals Ltd. announced it has drilled a mineralized zone covering 134.0m in WD-24-02 at its initial Phase 1 drill program on its Wedge VMS Project in the world-famous Bathurst Mining Camp, New Brunswick . The hole was collared on the northeast flank of the Wedge Deposit and drilled at an azimuth of 160 degrees and a dip of - 50 degrees to a depth of 219 meters. From recently acquired Cominco Data, the subsurface was not mined.

The main host is pyritic Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (VMS) with visible chalcopyrite. Copper mineralization first appears at 39.6 meters and continued down the hole with numerous secondary zones of VMS mineralization identified. High grade zinc (36.12% & 14.93%) was intersected in addition to copper.

Nine Mile completed an XRF Analysis of a random zone of mineralization between 157.65 - 173.05 meters (15.4 meters) consisting of bands of mixed massive sulphides and massive sulphides (VMS) between 164.50 - 170.25 meters. (See table #1 below.) Entire mineralized zone of 134.0m has been sample cut and being shipped to ALS Global Labs for Certified Lab Analysis The closest Cominco holes to the east are approximately 70 meters away with Drill hole WE-12 intersecting 5.76 meters assaying 1.06% Cu,1.59% Pb and 6.91% Zn and 1.26 ounces Ag. Company will continue to Drill to the east in Target Area #1 to confirm new extension of the Wedge Mine Ore Zone.

The Company has completed its XRF analysis for the main VMS portion of the drill hole utilizing an Olympus Vanta 50 Portable XRF equipped with a 50Kv Workstation and Reflex XRF software. The XRF process included calibrating the machine and utilizing three standards in the sample stream (OREAS 502B, OREAS 622 and CDN-BL-10 Blank) at the beginning and end of the analytical sequence. Most samples consisted of a 1-meter section of cut drill core, and as such, the sample was not homogeneous.

There were fifteen Sample Batches over 15.40 meters of mineralization. Each sample batch had approximately 15 -21 data points analyzed per meter. The core sample is placed cut face down, and the XRF gun takes a random unknown sample of the core.

The operator has no knowledge of the laser point.
