Brazauro Announces Results of Ground Magnetic Survey at Tocantinzinho, Outlines Initial 2005 Drilling Program.


HOUSTON -- Brazauro Resources (TSXV:BZO BZO Bolzano, Italy (airport code)
BZO Battle Sight Zero (military; rifle sight setting) 
.V) is pleased to announce the results of a recently completed ground magnetic survey at its Tocantinzinho ("TZ") project in the Tapajos province, Para State, Brazil, and also its drilling program for 2005.

A 1700 meter x 600 meter ground-magnetic survey was carried out at the TZ Project in January of this year, and processing of this data has just been completed. This program is an expansion of an earlier, much smaller ground magnetic survey completed in 1997. The combined surveys reveal a magnetic low trend that appears to be associated with mineralization Mineralization

 measurements of the core during the past year confirm a strong correlation between magnetic low areas and mineralization. This suggests that the mineralizing fluids were magnetite magnetite (măg`nətīt), lustrous black, magnetic mineral, Fe3O4. It occurs in crystals of the cubic system, in masses, and as a loose sand.  destructive.

The magnetic low associated with the strongest mineralization encountered in holes 4, 5, 9, 11, 16 and 17, continues approximately 150 meters to the southeast of the most southern drill hole drilled to date (TOC 04-16). The data also suggests a 200 to 300 meter extension of this magnetic low to the WNW WNW

 of holes 1 and 10. This correlates well with a gold-in-soil anomaly that has not yet been tested. Both areas will be drill-tested in April and May of this year.

Twenty diamond drill holes completed last year at the TZ Project outlined a mineralized body that is at least 500 meters in strike length, with a true width of approximately 110 meters, and open at 290 meters vertical depth. Drill programs planned for this year are designed to significantly expand the known dimensions of this mineralization.

Initial 2005 Drill Program at TZ

Brazauro Resources is planning an 8-10-hole, 2200-meter drill program at the TZ Project to commence in early April 2005. The objective of this program is three-fold: to test the continuation of mineralization to the southeast, which to date is completely open; to define the limits of mineralization at depth and along the eastern boundary of the deposit; and to test a significant magnetic anomaly Magnetic Anomaly may refer to:
  • Kursk Magnetic Anomaly
  • Tycho Magnetic Anomaly
 to the northwest that appears to be an extension of the mineralized zone.

The TZ Project lies along a major WNW-ESE mineralized trend in the Tapajos that hosts several former major alluvial/eluvial producers, including Brazauro's Mamoal and Batallha projects, Sao Jorge, Cuiu Cuiu, and Bom Jardin, all of which host extensive primary gold mineralization.

The exploration program is being carried out under the direction of Dennis Moore
