LAS VEGAS, June 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Hemis Corporation
(Hemis) (OTC Bulletin Board: HMSO; Frankfurt: XZA) is an
international resource company with three advanced stage
exploration properties in Mexico and one in Alaska. Hemis' Santa
Rita property in Mexico has an Earn-In Agreement with Goldcorp Inc.
(TSX: G; NYSE: GG) through its Mexican subsidiary Glamis
Exploration. El Tigre is Hemis' gold exploration project in eastern
Sonora, Mexico. The project is currently undergoing an initial
phase of diamond drilling. Currently, the team is drilling the
sixth hole of an initial program of eight core holes, each hole
having an average depth of approximately 200 meters. The initial
phase of drilling is intended to test several gold-bearing breccia
zones. Without exception, the completed holes show signs of
mineralization. Broad intercepts showing signs of brecciated,
silicified and/or sulfide-bearing zones have been logged. Dr.
Douglas Oliver, the chief geologist and drill supervisor at El
Tigre, stated that the second hole looked particularly good. "The
rocks are gorgeous. A continuous intercept of over 80 meters shows
signs of being strongly mineralized," Dr. Oliver stated. In
addition, strong signs of the mineral molybdenite was noted below
the mineralized breccias in hole number two. Hemis initially
considered El Tigre to be strictly a gold target. However, several
lines of evidence suggest that additional exploration for the
mineral molybdenum porphyry is warranted at El Tigre. In addition
to the strong possibility of molybdenum bearing-veins on the La
Centela concessions, multiple granite and rhyolite intrusions
support the possible existence of a molybdenum porphyry system.
Evidence for this was noted in drill hole two where inclusions of
rhyolite porphyry occur in granite. Normally granite would lie
deeper and be older than the rhyolite. Also, the granite is
extensively fractured with pyrite covering the fracture surfaces.
It is hoped that molybdenite will replace the pyrite at depth.
Samples of the El Tigre drill core are currently being assayed at
the ALS Chemex lab in Hermosillo, Mexico. Hemis is expecting the
results from the first hole this week with the results of
additional holes to be received on a weekly basis going forward.
