Yale Resources Intersects 698.6 G/T Silver over 2 Metres at Los Amoles Property

Yale Resources Ltd. (TSX-V - YLL and Frankfurt - YAB) has reported that field work at the Los Amoles Property continues to expand the main mineralized zone and has defined a vein system that has been traced on surface for approximately 800 metres along strike.

Work at Los Amoles was done by Yale on behalf of Nature's Call, who has an option to earn a 70% interest in the property.

Sampling included:

  • 2.0 metres grading 0.63 g/t gold and 698.6 g/t silver
  • 6.0 metres averaging 0.33 g/t gold and 226.6 g/t silver
    • including 2.0 metres grading 0.63 g/t gold and 497.3 g/t silver
  • 1.0 metres grading 0.33 g/t gold and 496.8 g/t silver
  • Dump material grading 0.24 g/t gold and 1,027.5 g/t silver

This latest field program was designed to prospect, map and sample the southern portion of the 1.0 by 2.5 kilometre main target area (see news releases dated April 15 and May 27, 2010). This work was successful in identifying an additional 20+ historic workings and Yale personnel successfully traced mineralization on surface for approximately 800 metres along strike. Sampling at irregular intervals along the strike length has returned gold and silver values.

In addition to strong values within the veins sampling has shown that proximal to the veins the host andesitic volcanic rocks often host silver mineralization in the order of 15 to 50 grams per tonne.

To date, greater than 45 historic workings and greater than 20 gold/silver veins have been identified within approximately 60% of the El Rosario target area that measures 1.0 by 2.5 kilometres. Another stage of fieldwork is planned in order to map and sample the remaining areas within the El Rosario target. This work will be done in advance of geophysics, which in turn, will be done to delineate priority locations for drilling.

Los Amoles Property:

The early stage wholly owned 16.3 square kilometre Los Amoles Property is located approximately 150 kilometres northeast of the Hermosillo, Sonora State, Mexico. The property is 10 kilometres northeast of the La Caridad Mine, operated by Grupo Mexico, which is one of the largest mining and processing complexes in Mexico.

Nature's Call has an option to earn a 70% interest in the property by paying to Yale US $ 50,000 (received), spending US $ 900,000 on exploration expenditures and issuing 1,000,000 shares (200,000 have been received) to Yale over three years.

Work performed to date by Yale has concentrated on an area (the Rosales area) that is on the eastern edge of a 4.0 by 2.75 km regional magnetic anomaly. Yale's interpretation is that the Rosales area represents silver-lead +/- gold veins that are distal to a porphyry system. The potential for this regional anomaly to reflect a buried porphyry has yet to be tested. Many of Sonora's most significant porphyry deposits are located within 70 km of the Los Amoles property.

Samples from Los Amoles were prepared and analyzed by IPL Inspectorate in their facilities in Mexico and Vancouver, respectively. Samples generally consisted of 1-3 kg of material. Gold and silver analyses were performed by 30 gram fire assay with an AA finish. Samples with greater than 100 g/t silver were re-assayed using gravimetric methods.

Ian Foreman, P.Geo., is Yale Resources' Qualified Person, as defined by National Instrument 43-101. The Los Amoles property is an early stage project that requires additional sampling and geological mapping to fully determine the project's potential.
