NEWS RELEASE
MORE NEW COPPER RESULTS ON ARIZONA MILDRED PEAK PROPERTY
March 4, 2005 - Further to its news release of February 14, 2005, Golden Arch Resources Ltd. is pleased to announce some additional results from its ongoing 2004-05 Fall/Winter Exploration Program on its 100%-owned Mildred Peak gold-silver-copper property in Pima County, Arizona.
A new zone, called the Emily Three Zone has been discovered to the southwest of Emily One and Emily Two. Emily Three is, as of this date, an area of undetermined length, which at this time appears to be about 500 meters (1640 feet) wide by 600 meters (1968 feet) long. Fifteen individual prospecting chip-samples have been taken in this area, yielding an average grade of 1.70 oz Ag per ton (58.3 grams Ag per metric tonne), and 0.778 % copper.
Two trenches (Trench A, and Trench B) have been completed in this area.
Trench A: 39 feet long (six continuous two meter samples totaling 12 meters) averaging 0.65 oz Ag per ton (22.3 grams Ag per metric tonne), and 0.308 % copper.
Trench B: 13 feet long (two continuous two meter samples totaling 4 meters) averaging 1.12 oz Ag per ton (38.4 grams Ag per metric tonne), 0.445 % copper.
“Character” Samples
Continuous sample #2350: one continuous exploration chip sample was taken over a length of approximately 150 meters (492 feet) across this zone as a “character” sample. Sample # 2350 assayed as follows: 0.90 oz Ag per ton (30.8 grams Ag per metric tonne) and 0.81% copper.
Continuous sample #2349: one continuous exploration chip sample was taken over a length of approximately 100 meters (328 feet) along the strike of this zone as a “character” sample . Sample # 2349 assayed as follows: 1.95 oz Ag per ton (67 grams Ag per metric tonne) and 0.94% copper.
As was recently reported, prospect sampling and trenching results in the Emily Copper Area appear to have indicated a significantly large (600 meters [1968 feet] wide by 1400 meters [4600 feet] long) copper-silver zone (Emily One Zone), which strikes northeast in a broader mineralized structural environment. The overall grade of the Emily One has not yet been established, but it is broadly mineralized, in northeasterly trending zones, with erratic copper grades ranging from less than 0.10 % copper to a high of over 5.0% copper. The silver values in these linear zones appear to correlate with the copper, and range erratically in value from less than 1 gram per metric tonne to about 66 grams per metric tonne (approximately 1.9 oz Ag per ton).
Also within the Emily Copper Area a new zone, called the Emily Two Zone, which at this time appears to be about 300 meters (984 feet) wide by 500 meters (1640 feet) long, was recently reported as having been discovered to the southwest of Emily One. Eight individual prospecting chip-samples have been taken in this area with an average grade of 1.21 oz Ag per ton (41 grams Ag per metric tonne), 0.35 % copper, and 0.13% lead per ton.
As yet, all the Emily Zones lack definition as to both grade and dimension. Nevertheless, the results to date are encouraging. The presence of porphyry intrusive dykes in the area also lends credence to the possibility that this surface mineralization may reflect the presence of porphyry copper mineralization at depth.
In addition, to attempt to determine the extent of the mineralization both horizontally and vertically, an Induced Polarization (IP) survey has been undertaken to cover this area, the results of which are expected soon. Company personnel are currently mapping the geology of the property. Also, a Magnetometer survey is scheduled to commence shortly. This geological/geophysical program, together with the sampling data gathered to date, will provide the input necessary to guide a follow-on diamond drill program.
The exploration program is under the supervision of R.D. Somerville, P.Eng., a Qualified Person under National Instrument 43-101.
Silver analysis was determined by aqua regia ICP and, for higher content samples, gravimetric fire assay. Copper analysis was determined by aqua regia ICP; samples known or suspected to contain higher levels were determined by “Code 8 Assay”, whereby a 0.5 g sample is digested in aqua regia and diluted volumetrically to 250 ml with 18 megaohm water, and analyzed on a Thermo-Jarrell Ash ICP. All analyses were done by Actlabs-Skyline Labs Inc. of Tucson, Arizona.
