Teras Resources Inc. reported assay results from its recent detailed surface exploration program at the Cahuilla gold/silver project in Imperial County, California. This recent mapping and rock chip sampling program focused on the company's southwest target area and the positive assay results from a total of 51 rock chip samples further enforce the potential expansion of the Cahuilla gold/silver deposit. This new area is relatively untested by past drilling. Results from the mapping and sampling program continue to show that significant gold and silver surface anomalies occur throughout the entire southwest target area. These new results augment the positive geochemical sample assays collected from Central Canyon. Gold results from the western and southwestern expansion area including the new samples are illustrated on the following map: A total of 51 rock chip samples were collected in the southwest expansion area with values ranging from 0.003 g/t gold and 0.5 g/t silver to 2.400 g/t gold and 36.8 g/t silver. This sampling campaign demonstrates that the precious metal-rich hydrothermal system extends to the boundaries of Teras' recent field exploration program and very likely extends to the southeast where outcrops are obscured by gravel cover. Samples collected along the Modoc Fault in the far western project area are also strongly anomalous in gold and silver. These areas will be included in the next drilling program. Samples gathered along the West Ledges fault zone showed somewhat more subtle precious metal anomalies but are interpreted to be collected within a higher level of the epithermal system indicating that higher grade values may occur deeper than, for example, along the Modoc Fault. In addition, other elements associated with the Cahuilla hydrothermal system or "pathfinders" are anomalous throughout the far southern project area indicating that the mineralizing system likely remains strong. Very little drilling has been conducted along West Ledges fault zone.
