A.I.S. Resources Acquires Strategic 57 Sq Km Bright Gold Project Adjacent to E79 Happy Valley

The Bright Gold Project and surrounds comprises many major historical workings and recorded production of over 730,0003 oz from both alluvial and rock mining. The largest producers on the Project were the Rose, Thistle and Shamrock mine @ 22.2g/t Au for 140,000 oz and the Oriental Mine @ 28g/t for 6,194 oz. The Bright Project is in a premium location and only 6km from E79’s Happy Valley Project.

Phil Thomas, CEO commented, “This is a major acquisition for AIS Resources, and a potential game changer as it provides us with numerous well-defined targets and the ability to use modern exploration techniques. Very little systematic exploration has been applied in this area, which historically had limited drilling below 60 metres. A maiden drilling program commenced late last year at the Golden Bar Prospect with two drill holes completed to 104 and 119 metres. The core will be submitted for assay very shortly.“

The terms of the acquisition were AUD$150,000 cash and the issuance of 10 million shares at CAD$0.06 per share for a 60% equity interest. The Company has the option to acquire 100% by exercising two 20% options at a pre-determined cost based on the indicated and measured gold mineral resources defined. Full details of the acquisition will be set out in a separate release. AIS also announces that Stewart Govett, the Principal of the Vendor and renown, highly experienced geologist from Exact Geoscience has contracted to work with the Company. AIS Resources will benefit from his experience and detailed knowledge of the area.

Rose, Thistle & Shamrock Gold Mine

The Rose, Thistle and Shamrock (RTS) Gold Mine, including Landtax reef is an area of significant potential. According to official Victorian Government Mining records, over 140,0004 oz of gold was produced at an average grade of 22.2 g/t between 1860 and 1934. Mining proceeded to a maximum depth of around 330m. The RTS gold mine is geologically and structurally complex resulting in the strong potential for significant economic ore. No significant exploration has been undertaken at or around the RTS mine since its closure almost 80 years ago.
