Escala's Gold Reserves Projected to Be Greater Than Expected
Thursday February 14, 8:30 am ET
LAS VEGAS, NV--(MARKET WIRE)--Feb 14, 2008 --
Franklin Mining, Inc. -
(Other OTC:FMNJ.PK - News) (Frankfurt:FMJ.F - News)
CEO, William Petty, confirms that Franklin will begin taking
gold from the first of its four known sources within
their 500 hectare concession from COMIBOL.
The first mining specifically for gold will begin at the Cerro
Blanco, the nearest of the four sites to where Franklin
is presently mining silver, zinc and lead.
The initial discovery of gold at the Escala was made in early-1993.
Within the year, a 70,000 square meter area at Cerro Blanco
was gridded and 134 systematic samples returned an average
1.2 grams of gold per ton.
A series of 783 continuous and contiguous three meter chip
samples were taken from within an approximate 35,000 square
meter area after bulldozer benching and diamond drilling.
This second set of samples confirmed earlier results.
Gold mineralization was strongly zoned and contained
significant sections above 1.0 grams per ton.
The average of 60% of all samples was 0.51 gram per ton;
the average of the remaining 40% was 1.16 grams per ton.
At the highest end of the range of all assay results,
there were a few as high as 2.8 and 3.9 grams per ton.
Additional information on Franklin's plans for mining at
the Escala is available at
www.FranklinMining.com
specifically in multiple Letters from the President
to be posted during February 2008.
