? Pacrim announced that Newcrest PNG Exploration Limited, a subsidiary of Newcrest Mining Limited (Newcrest), advised of commencement of a comprehensive aerial geophysical survey over the Manus Island copper/gold project. ? Newcrest also advised that soil sampling has re-confirmed the previously identified ?Kisi? gold anomaly but also defined a coherent, +500 ppb Au anomaly over an east ? west extended 1.4km by 200m wide zone where the highest soil sample gold result was 12.7g/t Au. ? The Kelly prospect at Redcliffe Project yielded higher grade gold intervals including, 10m @ 4.91g/t, 2m @ 11.1g/t, 4m @ 16.2g/t, 9m @ 2.84g/t, and 6m @ 2.77g/t, as reported last quarter. They are considered likely to represent higher grade gold zones and they remain open to the north. ? A Programme of Work has been formulated and lodged with the Department of Mines and Petroleum, WA to seek authorisation of follow up RC drilling and a drilling contractor has been engaged and is scheduled to start in August 2011.
