Tiger International Resources, Inc. provided update on activities at the Itogon gold project, Philippines. Mineralised intervals from diamond drilling (apparent width) include: 4.4m at 2.12 g/t gold from surface in EDD004, 7.5m at 0.89 g/t gold from 3.8m in EDD005, 8.0m at 2.25 g/t gold from 77.0m in EDD005, 10.6m at 1.03 g/t gold from surface in EDD006, and 5.0m at 1.38 g/t from 48.0m in EDD006. All diamond drill holes except EDD003 intersected near surface gold mineralisation, with intercepts including 4.4m at 2.12 g/t gold from surface in EDD004, 7.5m at 0.89 g/t gold from 3.8-11.3m and 2.9m at 1.55 g/t gold from 13.8-16.7m in EDD005, and 10.6m at 1.03 g/t gold from surface in EDD006.

These intercepts represent part of a widespread supergene enriched oxide gold blanket. ECR is presently undertaking an extensive trenching program (11 trenches/test pit lines), the results of which will provide additional data regarding the grade and distribution of this mineralisation. To date, assay results have been received in respect of two trenches and include mineralized intervals of 12m at 0.43 g/t gold in TR08 and 42m at 2.54 g/t gold in TR09.

Further assay results are pending, including additional assays from TR09, which may mean that a longer mineralized interval in that trench is reported in due course.
