Rupert Resources Ltd. announced new drilling from its Ikkari and Heinä South discoveries. New Ikkari drill results: Results from a further 18 holes continue to define broad mineralized zones, from surface, within the Ikkari orebody. A further 26 holes for over 8,000m remain pending.

New results are mostly from the west of the deposit and demonstrate consistently mineralized intercepts at shallow depths e.g. #122066 returned 72m of 2.2g/t Au from 10.4m (9m vertical, sub-crop under till cover) as well as identifying deeper zones of mineralization e.g. 47m of 1.9g/t Au from 168m, suggesting continuity to depth. Similarly, hole #122031 returned 30m of 2.8g/t Au from 471m (378m vertical). Hole 122071, in the central part of the deposit confirms the main high-grade zone (33m of 6.5g/t Au from 299m) and further extends mineralization to depth in the south (16m of 3.0g/t Au from 445m, 413m vertical and 6m of 2.0g/t Au from 503m, 465m vertical).

These results extend the mineralized zone by up to 80m depth on this section. New Heinä South drill results: At Heinä South, infill drilling along the 1km long mineralized trend further confirms mineralization, with results from #122050 of 7m of 4.5g/t Au from 153m, #122063 of 4m of 4.0g/t Au from 112m and 3m of 2.1g/t Au from 205m, and hole #122054 with results of 5m of 2.7g/t Au from 109m. A further 300m to the south of the Heinä South trend, initial results from a second, similarly-mineralized zone, parallel to the trend, indicate multiple mineralized zones.

#122072 returned 2m at 4.9 g/t Au from 131m, 15m at 1.1 g/t Au from 142m and 3m at 2.5 g/t Au from 204m. Results from several additional holes in this area are still pending.
