Normabec provides drilling result from Pitt Gold
by Jo Black

Normabec Mining Resources Limited announce additional results from its on-going winter drilling program on the Pitt Gold property, located along the Porcupine-Destor Break, some 35 km north of Rouyn-Noranda, in the Abitibi region of Quebec.
Normabec previously released impressive results from its first two first holes of the season.
Hole PG2008-01 is located 100 metres to the east of the previously released PG2007-07 (February 2008, 35.18 g/t Au over 5.0 meters). The mineralized intervals between 426 and 477 metres correspond to the expected location of Zone 1 while the 11.11 g/t Au between 570.9 and 572.7 corresponds with mineralization encountered in Zone 2. Of significance, it is the first time that such a long, continuously mineralized interval (34 meters) has been reported from Pitt Gold project. It is hosted by weakly mineralized and moderately silicified and sericitized felsic units (sub-volcanic QFP intrusions and related rhyolitic extrusive rocks) exhibiting 1-5% disseminated pyrite. This mineralization is open up dip and will be drill tested in the coming weeks.
Drilling is ongoing with one drill rig, having now completed approximately 4,500 meters during this phase. Five holes have been completed and one is in progress. Results have now been received and reported for the first three holes. Drilling is performed on a semi-systematic 50 X 50 meter grid in order to properly define zones 1 and 2 and other gold bearing structures identified in previous drilling programs.
