Twenty seven selective rock samples assayed at Acme Analytical Labs (Vancouver, BC) have averaged 4.0% copper and 11 g/t silver, up to 14.1% copper and 27 g/t silver. The samples were taken from blasted and exposed bedrock in an area of past production over a length of 150m and width of up to 50m. The Pomeroy 2 South Zone is located on strike 100m south of the Pomeroy 2 North Zone where similar mineralization has been confirmed.

Jared Lazerson, CEO of Copper Island Mines Ltd., stated, "This confirms more of the previous work and is consistent with reports of chalcocite mineralization in both grade by percentage of copper and direct correlation with silver."
Copper Island Mines Ltd. is in the process of working with the necessary personnel to produce a NI43-101 compliant resource estimate which seeks to independently verify the 3.5 Million tonnes grading 2% Copper, the historical resource estimate.
