Entourage Mining Identifies Several Radioactive Target Areas on Doran Uranium
Property
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(CCNMatthews - May 10, 2006) - Entourage Mining
Ltd. ("Entourage" or the "Company") (OTCBB:ETGMF) reports that several
radioactive targets have been identified by a recent airborne geophysical
survey of the Doran uranium property. The Doran uranium property is located in
eastern Quebec, immediately north of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, just north of
provincial highway 138 about 25 kilometers west of Aguanish, and approximately
85 kilometers east of Havre St. Pierre. Entourage Mining Ltd has an option to
acquire 100% interest in the 44-claim Doran property, subject to 2.5% royalty.
A recent airborne geophysical survey of the Doran property by Terraquest Ltd.
delineated a large number of zones of anomalous radioactivity, including two
zones on which uranium exploration previously had been undertaken. Seven high
priority uranium targets and 12 secondary uranium targets have been identified
on or adjacent to the 44 Doran claims. Among the high priority uranium targets
are the Main Grid and North Zone prospect areas that were investigated by the
company during the 2005 field season.
Based on the results obtained from Entourage's initial 2005 program of work
and the results obtained from the airborne survey of the property, a second
phase work program has been recommended by the Company's management and
consultants. The recommended 2006 program will expand technical coverage to
include all of the recently identified target areas and will include at least
2000 meters of diamond drilling, geological mapping, rock stripping and rock
sampling, and radiometric and magnetometer surveys. This work will help define
and measure the sources of strongly anomalous radioactivity and may result in
identification of additional uranium prospects.
The possibility of demonstrating the presence of high tonnage, low-grade
occurrences of radioactive mineralization will also be assessed in the field
and may permit development of a conceptual geologic model that can then be
further evaluated. The Company's objective at Doran is to locate and delineate
a large tonnage, low-grade, open-pit mineable uranium deposit. The rapidly
changing energy market accompanied by the escalating price of uranium compels
the evaluation of such potentially mineable zones for possible production.
Although historical exploration on the property has demonstrated the
possibility of high tonnage low-grade uranium mineralization, the property is
still in the early stage of exploration. The drilling and field crews are
expected to mobilize to the Doran property by May 15th.
Erik Ostensoe, P.Geo, and a qualified person and the project geologist, has
reviewed this press release.
