Gravity Gold Table Trial Commences At the Miller Gold Mine

VANCOUVER - Transatlantic Mining Corp. reported the completion of the Miller Mine Portal, the mine has been re-entered in order to clean up accumulated mud and dewater areas where the existing mine development is under water. A large sample of mud was passed over a gravity table to ascertain if it contained any gold. Visible gold was observed on the gravity table in sufficient quantity to encourage the further processing of this mud. Dewatering of the mine is being undertaken concurrently with the removal of the mud. This will give access to parts of the old mine.

The Miller Gold Mine is located in the Broadwater County in Montana. The mine is approximately 29 miles to the North east of Townsend in Montana. The presence of mineralization has been confirmed by recent sampling in areas of the mine where access is possible.

Transatlantic has entered into the Miller Mine Lower Portal and secured the entrance for winter. Work has taken place to remove mud from the lowest level in the mine which were waist (approx. 1.5 meter) deep over 200 meters in part. The Company decided to extract the muds out of the mine and run them over a gravity table to ascertain if they contained gold. Gold has been clearly identified and further work is being undertaken to determine the quantum of the gold content. This was in concert with dewatering an older area in the mine that has not been accessed previous. This dewatering also aided in providing further access for additional geological reconnaissance, sampling and additional drill planning activities.

Upon access to the dewatered mine drive, 30 meters of strike is visual on a minus 10 degree gradient with water still at the drive face. In the exposed mine development, visual gold was observed in the wall, roof and floor.
