Sunridge Intersects 1.0 g/t Au Over 56 Metres At Adi Rassi

Sunridge Gold Corp. (TSXV:SGC) reported that the final assay results received from the Adi Rassi copper-gold prospect diamond drill program, part of the Asmara project in Eritrea, continue to confirm that the wide copper and gold intercept show potential to become the company’s fifth deposit at the Asmara Project.

As quoted in the press release:

New Drill Highlights include:
* AR-013-D: 56.17 metres averaging 0.80% copper and  1.01 g/t gold
* AR-014-D: 49.65 metres averaging 0.31% copper and  0.47 g/t gold
* AR-016-D:  74.26 metres averaging 0.52% copper and 0.34 g/t gold
* AR-017-D:  38.20 metres averaging 1.50% copper and  0.50 g/t gold
* AR-018-D: 99.00 metres averaging  0.54% copper and 0.43 g/t gold

Michael Hopley, President and CEO of Sunridge, commented:

The 2012 drill program has successfully better defined and expanded the copper and gold mineralized zone and it is now clear that Adi Rassi has the potential of becoming much larger than the nearby Debarwa deposit. Metallurgical test work is underway to determine if the copper and gold recovery methodology is compatible with the process to be used at the nearby Debarwa copper-gold deposit. The next step is to have an independent initial resource estimate completed.
