 A0B54E) is pleased to announce that it has applied for the 2,400 hectare Cocha concession covering a copper-silver target in the Department of Junin, Peru approximately 23km east of the city of Huancayo and 220km to the east of Lima. Results from the property include a series of contiguous composite chip samples that average 0.8% copper and 10 g/t silver over 80 metres. After receiving confirmation of the concession title from the Peruvian government, Amera will hold a 100% interest in the property through its wholly-owned Peruvian subsidiary Recursos de los Andes; a finders-fee will be paid to an arms-length individual in connection with the identification of this target.

E[acute accent]A total of 18 rock samples have been collected from the property to date with assays ranging from 4 ppm to 2.89% copper and less than 0.2 to 99.2 g/t silver. Included within the 80-metre interval mentioned above were two non-adjacent 10-metre intervals assaying 2.69% copper and 24.4 g/t silver and 1.38% copper and 26.2 g/t silver (see Table 1).

 zone under cover. A total of 117 soil samples were collected at 25m intervals along lines spaced approximately 100m apart. A 1.25km long and up to 500m wide northwest-oriented copper-silver soil anomaly is centered on the discovery outcrop. Soil values range from 5 to 1,910 ppm copper (0.19% copper) and from less than 0.2 to 4.7 g/t silver; the anomaly is open along strike in both directions and to the north (see map on Amera website).

E[acute accent]The Cocha property hosts sedimentary copper-silver mineralization similar in style to the giant Lubin Deposit (52 Mt Cu, 2,275 M oz Ag1) in the Kupferschiefer district of Poland and the White Pine Deposit (8.3Mt Cu, 800 M oz Ag(1)) in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan The Upper Peninsula of Michigan is the northern of the two major land masses that comprise the U.S. state of Michigan. It is commonly referred to simply as the Upper Peninsula, the U.P., or Upper Michigan, and more casually as the land "above the Bridge". .
