Pacific Iron Ore Corporation (TSX VENTURE:POC) is pleased to announce the
results of recent drilling completed on their Best/Kings Bay and St. Anthony
properties in Northwestern Ontario. A total of seven drill holes were completed
this past fall, totaling 942 metres.
Five holes were drilled on the St. Anthony Property approximately 500 metres
south of the historic Dawson-White shaft, to test the extent of the veining in
the area. Each hole drilled tested the mafic volcanic-granodiorite contact, and
contained several porphyry and vein intervals, with varying intensities of
shearing present across all lithologies. Visible Gold was encountered in three
of the five holes with values up to 27.7 g/t over 0.5 meters.
Two holes were also drilled on the Best/Kings Bay Property to test several SP
(Self-Polarization) geophysical anomalies. Interstitial pyrrhotite scattered
throughout hole AB-01 accounts for the SP anomalies in that area, however, the
anomalies that hole AB-02 was designed to test remain unexplained.

Pacific Iron Ore's 8,816 hectare (51 mining claims) St. Anthony property
includes the St. Anthony mine - historically the largest gold producing mine in
Ontario's Kenora - Patricia Mining Division. The St. Anthony claim group is
located along the eastern shore of the north arm of Sturgeon Lake within the
Sturgeon Lake Greenstone Belt. The Best/Kings Bay Property is comprised of 752
hectares (3 mining claims and 14 leases) and is contiguous to the St. Anthony
Property.
QA/QC Procedures
The rock samples were provided to ALS Chemex, an ISO 9001 and ISO 17025
accredited facility located in Thunder Bay, Ontario, for analysis and
processing. The samples taken were analyzed for 51 elements by aqua regia
digestion with induction coupled plasma mass spectroscopy (ICP-AES), and for
gold by Trace Level fire assay on a 30 g sample with induction coupled plasma
mass spectroscopy (ICP-AES) finish. Samples over the detection limit were
re-assayed using a gravimetric finish, and samples containing visible gold were
sent for pulp metallic analysis, screened to 100 microns with a gravimetric
finish. An independent QA-QC protocol was used on the program consisting of a
combination of blanks and standards.
