Strictly: Drilling

Hi Frank
Here's some news on V.BRZ, the results of their two holes looks promising.

High Grade Copper Cut in Skarn Zone
7/9/02



BETTER RESOURCES LTD ("BRZ-V;BTRSF-0") - High Grade Copper Cut in Skarn Zone
Better Resources Limited has received analyses from Acme Analytical Laboratories of the core samples from two diamond drill holes on the Blue Grouse property near Campbell River, BC. Both holes were drilled from the same setup just south of the old pit where 20 ton of 12% copper was hand sorted in 1956. Hole BRZ 02-01 was drilled vertically down the western edge of the skarn band that is now interpreted to dip steeply eastward and was terminated in the footwall volcanics at 191 feet. Hole BRZ 02-02 was drilled at minus 45 degrees due East and cut the upper eastern portion of the skarn band before continuing in altered volcanics and terminating in granodiorite at 651 feet. Significant assays are:


Hole From To Intersection Copper % Gold Silver
gm/tonne gm/tonne

BRZ 02-01 26 36 10 ft .70 .0145 2.3
BRZ 02-02 16 21 5 ft 3.33 .356 10.7
These two holes indicate that the copper-bearing skarn zone is steeply to vertically dipping and approximately 25 to 30 feet wide. Additional holes are planned from setups further west that will cut the full width of the zone to depth and along strike, permitting grade and tonnage calculations.

The Benson Lake copper mine 70 miles to the northwest produced 2.6 million tonnes of 1.6% copper with 1.44 g/tonne gold and 4.5 g/tonne silver from a skarn zone over 2.5 kilometers long. The Island Copper mine at Port Hardy had a high grade skarn zone adjacent to the porphyry copper orebody .The porphyry copper potential at the Blue Grouse property, as suggested by the magnetometer survey and humus soil sampling, has yet to be tested.

The company is pursuing funding to continue the program at the Blue Grouse property. TEL: [phone]
