Gentor Resources Inc. announced further strong results from their on-going evaluation drilling of the Mahab 4 'Cyprus-type' volcanogenic massive sulphide copper discovery in Oman. Infill diamond drilling at approximately 25 metre spacing, mainly in the northern and central parts of this shallow body, has confirmed the continuity of high grade massive sulphide above a lower grade stringer zone. Although in its original position, the final shape of the deposit shows marked faulting. Evaluation drilling of the Mahab 4 deposit is now close to completion. The remaining evaluation drill holes have been logged and sampled with final assay results expected during February/March 2012. Following receipt of all drill assay information, an independent resource consultant will be mandated to conduct a preliminary resource estimation on the Mahab 4 deposit. From the discovery of Mahab 4 in 2010, until mid-January 2012, Gentor has drilled 51 diamond drill holes for 6,179.73 metres at Mahab 4. Drill focus will now switch to Maqail South where Gentor discovered a second massive sulphide deposit in 2010 and up until the end of 2011 has drilled 16 diamond holes for 1,692.58 metres. An active regional exploration and drilling programme will continue in the Block 5 and 6 Oman tenements in 2012. Recent drilling at Mahab 4 has now better defined the dimensions of this wedge-shaped, northerly plunging, fault-controlled deposit that may have been formed in a graben at the contact between the footwall Geotimes pillow lavas and the overlying Lasail Unit pillowed sequence. The Mahab 4 deposit, as defined, has a strike of approximately 330 metres between Sections 1S to 5aN, is cut off by faults at both ends and lies underneath a moderately west dipping reverse fault - the Main Fault. The deposit is also constrained to the east by northerly trending linear structures that may have originally been sea-floor growth faults that controlled deposition of the mineralization. The Mahab 4 body is exposed at surface south of Section 2 and is represented by a narrow gold gossan (12.6 metres @ 2.52 g/t Au in hole B5MB4D084A from depth of 11.90 metres) developed above supergene enriched massive sulphides that plunge shallowly to the north. Infill drilling on five intermediate 25 metre sections was required to determine ore shapes for wire frame geological modeling and to provide additional core for initial metallurgical testing of ore types - currently in-progress. Potential faulted extensions of Mahab 4 along strike to the north and south are possible and will be evaluated by using ground geophysics and drilling.
