Brazauro Drills 258 Meters of 2+ G/T Gold at Tocantinzinho in Brazil; Initiates Independent Scoping Study.HOUSTON -- Brazauro Resources Corporation (TSX TSX Toronto Stock Exchange (TSE before April, 2002) TSX Transfer from Stack Pointer to Index TSX True Space Extension VENTURE:BZO BZO Bolzano, Italy (airport code) BZO Battle Sight Zero (military; rifle sight setting) ) is pleased to announce the results of an additional eight core holes out of a total of 18 holes that have been completed this year at the Company's Tocantinzinho ("TZ") Gold Project in Brazil. The Company has drilled a total of 65 core holes at TZ for a total of 16,126 meters. The current program was designed to fill in some of the gaps in the main deposit, to delineate possible southeasterly south·east·er·ly adj. 1. Situated toward the southeast. 2.

Drilling of the outlying targets consisted of nine holes. In addition, based on the positive results to date and the coherent distribution of mineralization Mineralization The process by which the body uses minerals to build bone structure. Mentioned in: Rickets mineralization, n the bioprecipitation of an inorganic substance. in the main deposit, Brazauro has decided to contract an independent engineering firm to commence a scoping study to assess the economics of this project. Drilling Results Complete assay results have been received for eight core holes, confirming continuous mineralization within the previous gaps within the center of the main deposit, including the outlining of a high-grade core comprising the southeastern half of the main deposit. This high-grade core stretches over an area of approximately 300 x 80 meters in size and is still open-ended at a depth of +250 meters. The results will enhance the inferred resource that is already more than two million ounces of gold, and improve the ratio of indicated to inferred resources significantly. The following results were received: [TABLE OMITTED] The results from holes TOC-58, -59 and -63 have closed off the extension of the main deposit to the southeast. Drilling to the northwest continues with holes TOC-66, -67, 68 and 69. Outlying Targets A total of nine core holes were drilled at three targets outside of the main TZ deposit. Except for two holes at the Jesse Garimpo that encountered two mineralized min·er·al·ize v. min·er·al·ized, min·er·al·iz·ing, min·er·al·iz·es v.tr. 1. To convert to a mineral substance; petrify. 2.

Exploration outside the main TZ deposit is now focusing on soil sampling the contact area between two granitic intrusions to the southeast of TZ, as well as the continuation of the shear zone to the northwest. Based on the results of this sampling program, the Company may initiate additional drilling in the near-term. Engineering Scoping Study Brazauro is requisitioning in an independent, preliminary scoping study at TZ based on the continuation of strong mineralization within the main TZ deposit, the surface expression of the mineralization, the existence of the high-grade core with grades above 2 g/t Au and the free milling nature of the mineralization. This study will examine the economics of a potential mining operation in this area and will include cost estimates for improving the infrastructure including power and access. Results from this study are anticipated this year. Drill core samples are collected by Brazauro's experienced geotechnicians under supervision of Brazauro's qualified geological staff on site. All reported assays and chemical analyses are made by SGS-Geosol Laboratories of Belo Horizonte Belo Horizonte (bəl' rēzôN`tĭ) [Port.,=beautiful horizon], city (1996 pop. 2,091,770), capital of Minas Gerais state, E Brazil. , Brazil, and are handled in
the same manner as previously announced.
