Timberline Resources Corporation announced the recognition of a new higher grade zone of gold mineralization at the Company's Eureka project in Nevada. Reverse circulation (RC) drill hole BHSE-171 intersected 25 feet of 0.144 ounces of gold per ton (opt) (7.62 meters (m) of 4.93 grams of gold per tonne (g/t)) within a longer 65 foot interval assaying 0.094 opt (19.82 m of 3.22 g/t) in the Lookout Mountain area. This hole was offset 140 feet from BHSE-152 (drilled in 2012) which first encountered the new zone but was not completed due to drilling difficulties.
