Brazilian Resources announces significant gold values from initial drilling program.


MANCHESTER, N.H.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--MAY 2, 1995--BRAZILIAN RESOURCES (CANADIAN DEALING NETWORK Canadian Dealing Network (CDN)

The organized OTC market of Canada. Formerly known as the Canadian Over-the-Counter Automated Trading System (COATS), the CDN became a subsidiary of the Toronto Stock Exchange in 1991.
: BZIN) Brazilian Resources, Inc. (BRAZILIAN) announces completion of the first phase of diamond drilling Diamond Drilling is a highly specialized industry used for mineral exploration around the world. Most commonly using wireline and core bits with diamond encrusted matrix. To drill holes to max depths of twelve thousand feet, for the recovery of core used in verifying mineral  on its exploration properties in the state of Mato Grosso Mato Grosso (mä`t grô`s) [Port.,=thick forest], state (1996 pop. , Brazil. Daniel R. Titcomb, President of BRAZILIAN, reports, "Holes F-02 and F-03 returned values of 12.47g Au/tonne over a core length of 1.7 meters and 22.45g Au/t over 1.9 meters beginning at depth of 94.2 and 70.0 meters, respectively."

Seven widely spaced holes (B-01 to B-07) totaling 2056 meters were completed on the 10 x 10 km Cedro Bom II concession. Six holes (F- 01 to F-06) totaling 691m tested a vein structure beneath a surface trench on the contiguous Filao concession at 50m intervals. Assay results have been received for all seven Cedro Bom holes, and the first three holes at Filao.

 of Pearson, Hofman & Assoc., Toronto, "High grade gold values were realized from holes F-02 and F-03, with no significant values in F- 01, and results from the other three holes expected by mid-May. The vein structure is open both along strike and at depth, and appears to be associated with a major north-northeast trending fault zone extending for 10km across and through the west-central part of the Cedro Bom concession. Associated with this structure is a 2km long zone of east-west trending EM conductors. This zone is flanked by soil and stream sediment gold geochemical anomalies extending for some 2km to the north within Cedro Bom."

Pearson continues, "Diamond drilling on the Cedro Bom concession has confirmed the presence of widespread alteration zones favorable for gold mineralization Mineralization

, sulfides and no significant assay results.

The significant lode gold values realized from the initial phase of drilling, combined with the large electromagnetic conductors and geochemical anomalies, further demonstrates the potential for the BRAZILIAN's Cedro Bom concessions to host world class gold reserves. The company has entered discussions with several potential joint venture partners; site and technical data reviews are underway.

Regarding its recently contracted diamond exploration property, BRAZILIAN is assessing an alluvial diamond mining program targeted to be in production by the 4th quarter of 1995. A bulk sampling program is scheduled to be initiated in the next 60 days to confirm previous testing of an estimated 17 million cubic meters of diamond bearing gravel.

BRAZILIAN is an exploration and development company quoted on the Canadian Dealing Network under the symbol "BZIN". The company raised over US$11,000,000 during 1994 and is financed to begin alluvial production providing near term cash flow, and to continue its mineral property acquisition program.
