East Asia Minerals Corporation reported the encouraging results of preliminary metallurgical testing, which helps to form the basis to commence more detailed studies in preparation for scoping and feasibility work at its Miwah project located in Aceh Province, Indonesia. The Company is currently preparing to carry out more comprehensive metallurgical testing in 2012, however, these initial results suggest that Miwah's mineralized material is readily leachable using processing techniques conventional to the gold mining industry. All four samples were taken from core drilled by East Asia Minerals, collected under the supervision of Ian Taylor of Mining Associates Pty. Ltd. of Australia in 2011. Metallurgical testing was performed by G&T Metallurgical Services ("G&T") of Kamloops, BC, Canada, and both grinding tests and leach recovery tests were performed by G&T. Each sample consisted of 10 metres of core from two different drill holes (for a total of 20 metres per sample) identified to represent a similar mineralogical assemblage and gold grade.
