Balmoral Resources Ltd. reported additional gold results from drill testing of multiple shallow zones situated along the Bug Lake Fault System on its wholly owned Martiniere Property in Quebec. Drilling continued to expand and delineate the Hanging Wall, Footwall and Bug Lake Zones, with most holes successfully intersecting multiple zones of gold mineralization. Results from the final 11 holes of the fall 2012 drill program indicate the presence of a fault repeat of the Footwall Zone, potential for expanding the Footwall Zone to depth and provide further evidence for the local development of a fourth, near surface high-grade zone located between the Bug Lake and Hanging Wall Zones.

Drilling continues on the Martiniere Property with 2 rigs currently on site. The Footwall Zone has now been traced down-plunge for 150 metres from the bedrock surface. Increased drill density indicates the presence of a fault repeat of the Footwall Zone.

Re-interpretation of the Zone places the fault repeated section between the main Footwall Zone and the Bug Lake Zone in the vicinity of previously reported hole MDE-12-72, which returned 23.82 g/t gold over 6.73 metres from what is now regarded to be a Footwall Zone intercept. This fault offset section can be traced for approximately 75 metres down plunge. In addition, an intercept of 8.07 g/t gold over 1.66 metres in hole MDE-12-74 may represent the depth extension of the Footwall Zone at roughly 180 metres vertical depth, below which the footwall area remains untested.

A deeper intercept of 16.53 g/t gold over 6.21 metres from hole MDE-12-72, along with three other intercepts, may indicate the presence of another high-grade occurrence to the west of the Footwall Zone in an area of limited testing.
