Mercer Gold Corporation (MRGP.OB) reports initial results from the Company’s gold exploration program at the Guayabales Gold Project, located in the Marmato Gold District of Colombia. Initial work has potentially identified two new areas of gold mineralization and alteration, similar in style of alteration and structure to the three primary areas of interest identified in earlier work and described in the Company’s previously released technical report. Based on the limited sampling, additional work is necessary to confirm the presence of the two new zones.
Work to date has also included geologic mapping, underground sampling of new advances in tunnels created by local miners, underground sampling of previously unsampled tunnels, and surface sampling of areas of interest related to the ongoing mapping of geology, alteration and structure, and a soil orientation sampling program.
“These results are preliminary and although more work is needed to confirm the presence of the new zones, it begins to show that this property has potential in areas previously unexplored. We have since started a systematic approach to understand the geology across the entire property and I look forward to learning about its true potential in due course,” says Rahim Jivraj, President of Mercer Gold Corp.
Mercer Gold Corporation is focused on gold exploration and resource definition in Colombia. The Company acquired the prospective Guayabales Project, located in the Marmato Gold District, Department of Caldas, earlier in 2010. Mercer is exploring the Guayabales property and is seeking to acquire additional prospective gold properties in Colombia.

Nevsun Resources Ltd. (AMEX:NSU) recently provided a brief update on the Bisha project in Eritrea.
The project continues to be on schedule and on budget. Bisha is advancing well towards plant commissioning phase late this year. After a relatively short commissioning process (60 days) and after reaching commercial production during Q1 2011, the Company expects to produce in excess of 100,000 ounces of gold each quarter at a cost of less than $250 per ounce. With over 95% of procurement completed, project management are comfortable the actual capital cost will be within the budget of approximately $260 million.
With these low operating costs, Bisha is anticipated to have much higher than average industry profitability and cash flow. Estimated Bisha Project cash flow under various metals price assumptions is included in the annual MD&A and posted on the Nevsun web site.
The Company’s cash position at June 30 was approximately US$83 million. This cash, plus the normal contributions by the Eritrean National Mining Corporation is enough to satisfy all construction cash requirements. Q2 financial results will be released on or about August 12, 2010.
