High Grade Molybdenum Mineralization Now Extends Over 400 M – Drilling Continues Geophysical Survey Started

July 8, 2008

Newmac Resources Inc. (TSX-V: NER) is pleased to announce that drilling continues on the Crazy Fox Molybdenum Project, favourably located 100 km North of Kamloops, British Columbia. A detailed geophysical (magnetometer) survey is currently underway, it is hoped that it will help to determine  areas of additional mineralization.

The goal of the current drilling is to extend known mineralization and explore new areas of high potential. 

Assays have now been received from hole CF08-52 and CF08-55

CF08-52 was collared 430 m south of hole CF07-41 and drilled on 315 degrees azimuth at –75 degrees.  Hole CF08-52 curved to the north as it was drilled and did not penetrate the projected zone of higher grade mineralization  The hole intersected several high grade intersections, up to 0.33% Mo over 2 m.   These intersections have been interpreted as an indicator of the ‘strength’ of the mineralizing system and may indicate the proximity of the projected high grade zone to the west.

CF08-55 was collared 500 m south west of  hole CF07-41 and drilled on 90 degrees azimuth at -75 degrees.  The hole intersected several high grade intersections, up to 0.36% Mo over 2 m.

The discovery of high grade mineralization in hole CF 08-52 and CF 08-55, extends the known higher grade mineral zone roughly 400 m  along strike from CF 08-55 to CF08-41.

Samples from hole CF 08-56 are in the lab for assay, and will be released as they are received.

CF08-57 is currently being drilled. Results will be released as they are received.

Hole CF07-41, (Reported previously) penetrated a low angle thrust fault at approximately 390 m (1280 feet) and encountered mineralized intrusive rocks to the bottom of the hole at a depth of 1021m (3349 feet). Summary results for the hole are as follows:

CF08-47 was collared 350 m west of  hole CF07-41 and drilled to the east at –80 degrees.  Hole CF08-47 curved to the south as it was drilled, and CF07-41 curved to the north, therefore the two mineralized intersections are between 90 m to 150 m apart (Reported previously).

Assays were performed by Acme Analytical Laboratories Ltd. of Vancouver, B.C., a certified
facility, using a phosphoric acid leach with ICP-ES spectrometry methods.

A 60 km detailed geophysical (magnetometer) survey has commenced on the Crazy Fox Project.  Preliminary studies and modeling suggests that the company might be able to discriminate between areas underlain at depth (in our case, below the thrust fault) by volcanic rocks and areas underlain by Intrusive rocks, which would aid in the company’s mapping of the lower half of the intrusion.
