IEMR Update for Current Exploration Program at Pine Tree
August 12 2011 - 9:44AM
Marketwired Canada
IEMR Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:IRI) is pleased to report that the 2011
drilling program has been completed on the Pine Tree Project near Mina, Nevada.
Nine diamond drill holes totaling 5652.7 meters (18,545.5 feet) have been
completed as part of the program. The table below lists the completed holes and
their locations can be seen in figure 1
(http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/IRI0812.pdf). This brings to total drilling
on the property since 2005 to 14,069.7 meters (43,797.5 feet) in 30 holes for
the property. Previous drilling was conducted by Mosquito Consolidated Gold
Mines Ltd. ("Mosquito"), who currently manages exploration on the Pine Tree
project on behalf of IEMR.

The drill holes encountered three different types of mineralization,
corresponding to the three distinct mineralizing events previously identified on
the property. These are the older copper bearing calc-silicate skarn
replacement, the molybdenum bearing stockwork and the younger
arsenopyrite-precious-base metal bearing systems. Assay results will be released
once all analytical, check and precious metal analytical work is completed.
Almost the entire core was sampled and cut in half using a diamond saw. Half the
core is sent for analysis with the other half being kept and stored at the core
facility located on site. Following cutting the samples are picked up directly
by ALS Chemex and taken to their fully accredited analytical laboratory in Reno.
They are first analyzed for 47 elements using a four (4) acid digestion with
analysis by Inductively Coupled Argon Plasma Optical Mass Spectrometer (ICP-MS)
and for gold using a 50 gram fire assay with an Atomic Absorption (AA) finish.
Copper and Molybdenum bearing samples are then checked by using a larger 5 gram
sample and analyzed using a pressed power pellet X-Ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy
(XRF). In addition duplicates, blanks, and standards are analyzed to ensure
analytical accuracy and reproducibility. All rejects are being kept for further
analysis and for use in metallurgical testing.
Geologically the intersection lengths and type of mineralization encountered in
the drilling are listed in Table below. These are mineralized zones identified
by the geology personnel, that are used to produce the geologic block model that
IEMR expects will be used in a resource calculation. Assays will determine the
grade of these zones.

Once all the assays are received, IEMR is going to calculate an initial National
Instrument 43-101 compliant resource for the project, the results of which will
be used to control additional drilling and development of the project.
Mr. Shaun M. Dykes, M.Sc. (Eng), P.Geo., Exploration Manager and a Director of
