TEMBO COMMENCES DRILLING ON THE NYAKAGWE EAST TARGET AT TEMBO PROJECT, TANZANIA

Tembo Gold Corp. has recently commenced drilling at Nyakagwe East, one of the company's priority phase 1 drill targets at the Tembo project, Tanzania, using two diamond drills and a reverse circulation drill. The Nyakagwe East target consists of two parallel northwest-trending zones of active and historical artisanal mining. The target zones have been interpreted to be parallel to the dominant regional northwest-trending structures that host African Barrick Gold's multimillion-ounce Bulyanhulu mine. Historical diamond drilling at Nyakagwe East (see accompanying table) returned results of up to 10.25 grams per tonne gold over 3.5 metres from the Southern zone and 9.8 g/t gold over 3.4 metres from the Northern zone.

Twenty-six diamond drill holes totalling 4,000 metres along 100-metre-spaced sections, targeting both parallel structures at depths of 50 metres and 100 metres below surface, are planned on each of the Nyakagwe East zones. Based on results, follow-up diamond drilling will be conducted to intersect the structures along the same section lines at 150-metre and 200-metre depths.

Additionally, an 18,500-metre (124 holes) RC drill program is planned along six fences to test for southeast extensions of the structures under surficial cover, as well as northwest extensions that may link Nyakagwe East structures to the Mgusu area of artisanal activity and workings. Should gold-bearing extensions be intersected by RC drilling, diamond drilling on a similar spacing will be conducted to evaluate, define and delineate potential additional mineralization.

The Nyakagwe East target

Two distinct parallel zones of artisanal workings characterize the Nyakagwe East target, each with a strike length of greater than 500 metres and separated by an intrusive dike. Mineralization is related to at least two quartz veins associated with shear zones within basaltic host rocks. Sulphide mineralization consists of pyrite within a shear zone with strong quartz veining. The zones strike northwest and are interpreted to dip steeply to the southwest.

Twelve diamond drill holes were drilled in 2008 on both zones to test the structures. Well-mineralized zones contained sheared basalts and strong quartz veining with associated semi-massive, stringers and disseminations of pyrite. Higher grades were distinctly correlated with quartz veining and abundant sulphide.

Tembo's president and chief executive officer, David Scott, commented: "After intersecting and announcing very exciting drill results from our first target area, I am anxiously awaiting results from Nyakagwe East as our second target. With significant historical drill results and extensive artisanal mining over a number of parallel zones, this drill target constitutes one of the largest single artisanal workings and high-priority drill targets on the Tembo property."
