Spectacular Gold Results – Forsayth Gold Drilling Program Highlights • 6m zone grading 29 g/t Au including 1m @ 86.4 g/t Au and 1m @ 59.6 g/t Au • Drilling program aimed to test potential for depth and extent of previously mined shallow gold mineralisation • Quality of results indicates strong potential for economic resource – to be tested via follow up drilling later in 2008 Following on the heels of it’s maiden gold resource at Percyvale and hugely encouraging iron project at Munderra, InterMet Resources Ltd (ASX:ITT) is pleased to announce spectacular gold intersections from its first drilling program at Forsayth.
