Eaglecrest Reports Highest Gold Grade Thickness

VANCOUVER, BC - Eaglecrest Explorations Ltd. reported the highest gold grade-thickness interval in the company's drilling history at the San Simon project in northeastern Bolivia from one of the two final drill holes in its current drilling program.
Hole dh327 was recently completed in the L484 gold shoot as part of Eaglecrest's drill program and returned an estimated true thickness of 3.7 meters of 27.8 grams/tonne gold, for and a grade-thickness product of 103 gram-metres/tonne (27.8 grams/tonne multiplied by 3.7 metres), which is the best grade-thickness interval in the company's history at San Simon.
Eaglecrest's drilling program has been focused on the L484 and San Pedro West high-grade gold shoots, which are located in the Dona Amelia zone.
"The fact that hole dh327 returned the highest gold grade-thickness interval in San Simon's history speaks to the high-grade gold potential of the L484 gold shoot and the other shoots that remain to be drilled in the Dona Amelia zone," said Hans Rasmussen, President and Chief Operating Officer. "We are generating these drill results while we build our first in-house 3D geologic model. The model will enable us to better understand the distribution of gold at San Simon and lead to more efficient infill drilling and exploration aimed at adding gold ounces to the model."
Eaglecrest also announced that it is in the process of purchasing the two diamond drill rigs. "Owning the drills will give the Company more flexibility and help our drilling program be more cost-effective," said Rasmussen
