International Gold Resources, Inc. Announces the Discovery of a Large Manganese Target at Cupixi, Amapa State, Brazil.DENVER -- International Gold Resources, Inc. (Pink Sheets:IGRU) announced today that the Company has discovered a large manganese manganese (măng`gənēs, măn`–) [Lat.,=magnet], metallic chemical element; symbol Mn; at. no. 25; at. wt. 54.938; m.p. about 1,244°C;; b.p. about 1,962°C;; sp. gr. 7.2 to 7. target on its Cupixi claim block in Amapa State, Brazil. The target is estimated by IGR's geologic consultant in Brazil, Tobias Geotec, to be a minimum of 30 to 50 million metric tonnes of Manganese oxide ore. This estimate is based on projected depths of at least 30 meters. Assumptions were made on mining and processing losses for ore quality upgrades. The surface area delineated de·lin·e·ate tr.v. de·lin·e·at·ed, de·lin·e·at·ing, de·lin·e·ates 1. To draw or trace the outline of; sketch out. 2. To represent pictorially; depict. 3. is 2 km by 0.7 km. Within this area are several manganese outcrops up to 150 meters in length. Soil samples, trenches, and auger auger (ô`gər): see drill. auger Tool (or bit) used with a carpenter's brace for drilling holes, usually in wood. It looks like a corkscrew and produces extremely clean holes, almost regardless of how large the bit is. holes were used in delineating the surface area and indicated depth. The estimate is not compliant with Securities and Exchange Commission and Canadian NI43-101 standards. IGR IGR insect growth regulator. has commenced core drilling and expects to confirm depth and 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. continuity estimates over the next several weeks. Mike Michels, IGR's Vice President of Brazilian operations said, "Tobias Geotec is one of Brazil's premier technical consultants. With their support, our own core drilling underway, and the oversight of Behre Dolbear, we are expecting to advance the Cupixi manganese target quickly. The Porto Grande For São Vicente's main port, see Porto Grande, Cape Verde Porto Grande (Portuguese meaning large port) is a municipality located in the southeast of the state of Amapá in Brazil. Its population is 14,675 and its area is 4,402 km². area, where our Cupixi claims are located, is an historic manganese producing area with good infrastructure." Behre Dolbear estimated manganese ore value delivered to Port at approximately $75 per metric tonne in their June 2007 preliminary evaluation of IGR's Brazilian assets. The full Behre Dolbear report can be viewed on the IGR Internet site, "www.intlgold.com". IGR commissioned Tobias Geotec to perform the necessary work on the Cupixi claim area in support of IGR's application for permit extensions. IGR has timely filed the applications with the governing Brazilian authorities. IGR has commissioned Behre Dolbear to work in conjunction with Tobias Geotec to independently verify work quality as IGR proceeds with advancing the project. About International Gold Resources, Inc.
