NEW HIGH GRADE GOLD INTERSECTIONS AT LOBO, BATANGAS GOLD PROJECT, THE PHILIPPINES
Perth-based Red Mountain Mining Limited (ASX: RMX) (“the Company”, “Red Mountain”) today announced high-grade gold near surface diamond drilling intersections from the Pica epithermal vein structure in drillhole PC-05: 5m at 4.28 g/gold (Au) and 15.75 g/t silver (Ag) from 22.4m downhole including 1.3m at 9.49 g/t Au, 21.5 g/t Ag.
The Pica epithermal vein structure is one of at least five parallel epithermal structures, with an aggregate strike length of over 15 kilometres, at Lobo prospect within the Company’s flagship Batangas Gold Project, located 120 kilometres south of Manila in the Philippines.
In addition, the second hole in the two hole programme PC-06: intersected 1.7m at 4.4 g/t Au from 58.10m downhole (silver results pending). The cluster of vein structures intersected by PC-05 and PC-06 are interpreted to dip shallowly to the south–east and remain open (see Table 1 below for all significant intersections above 1g/t Au).
Mapping by Red Mountain continues to locate northeast-southwest striking extensions to the Pica vein structure which has been mapped over more than a 2km strike length.
Further drilling is being planned to test for extensions to the high grade mineralisation intersected, and potentially define a near surface gold and silver resource.
This is only the second epithermal vein structure drilled by Red Mountain at Lobo. The initial successful drilling campaign of the West Drift vein located a new high grade gold shoot which is now being geologically interpreted and modelled.
These exciting results also follow on from the recently announced new surface discovery on the Ulupong epithermal vein of 19m @ 9.77 g/t Au including 7m @ 23.58 g/t Au located in the southern portion of the Lobo project.
Red Mountain Managing Director, Mr Jon Dugdale:
“We are very pleased that our drilling and trenching programs continue to generate new high-grade gold discoveries for further drilling. The opportunity is there to convert these discoveries to additional high-grade resources over the coming months”.

BACKGROUND - LOBO GOLD PROJECT:
At Lobo, a series of epithermal lodes and breccia’s have now been mapped over a combined strike length of more than 15 kilometres. Previous drilling has only tested approximately a 500 metre strike length of the interpreted lode structures, to shallow depth of less than 200 metres. High-grade gold shoots have been identified at South West Breccia (Indicated Resource of 178,000 t @ 7.4 g/t Au 42,000oz Au and Inferred Resource of 16,000 tonnes @ 5.3 g/t Au; 3,000 oz Au) and the new West Drift gold discovery. Regional trenching and channel sampling has identified new veins/lodes and high-grade gold targets for further drilling.

About Red Mountain Mining Limited
Red Mountain Mining (ASX: RMX) is primarily a gold explorer and project acquisition company which listed on the ASX in September 2011. The Company’s strategy is to unlock the potential of ‘under-developed’ gold and polymetallic projects in the greater Asian region by introducing Australian mining methods and improving efficiencies to gain significant production and exploration upside.
The Company completed the acquisition of significant gold resources and copper gold tenements in the Philippines on 30 October 2012. Since acquisition the company has focussed on upgrading the Batangas resources through discovery of new, high grade, gold zones at Archangel, and Lobo (eg West Drift, Pica, Ulupong). The company will continue drilling with the objective of increasing the size and grade of JORC compliant Mineral Resources at Batangas then completing a scoping study to demonstrate the viability of a potential high-margin gold project development.
Other gold opportunities will be reviewed on a continuous basis.
