Property NewsOctober 20, 2008 International Tower Hill Mines announce recent exploration results from its BMP Project. Surface
sampling of massive sulphide mineralization intimately associated with a significant 9 kilometre long geophysical
anomaly returned values up to 25g/t gold, 673g/t silver, 13.8% copper, 10.1% lead and 30% zinc. May 13, 2008 Announced the results from a recent high resolution airborne magnetic and EM survey completed over key mineralized areas of the Company’s BMP project, Alaska. In the spring of 2008, Fugro, the Company’s contractor, completed an airborne magnetic and electromagnetic survey of the core target area covering an area of 30 square kilometres in two blocks with a nominal line spacing of 50 metres. The results have outlined several large geophysical anomalies spatially associated with the outcropping polymetallic (copper-gold-silver) skarn deposits that were discovered in 2007. The largest anomaly is associated with the 6120 target area and covers approximately 1 square kilometre forming at an important structural intersection on the south side of the core intrusive. Twenty rock samples collected from a 150 metre diameter area of outcropping skarn at the 6120 target averaged 2.3% copper, 3.4 g/t gold, 33 g/t silver, 0.16% nickel and 0.07% cobalt. In addition, similar skarn type mineralization was found 2 kilometres to the north at the 6920 prospect.
