New Gold Target Identified At The Lampa Project In Peru

Sep 14, 2010

September 14, 2010 (TSX Venture: LRA) - Lara Exploration Ltd., (“Lara” or “the Company”) is pleased to report encouraging results from reconnaissance work on its 100%-owned Lampa Gold Project in southern Peru. The Company’s field teams have outlined a 4 by 2 kilometre belt of gold bearing quartz veins hosted by sandstone and quartzites. Individual veins have been mapped for lengths of over 300 metres, with thicknesses in the range of 0.60 to 1.00 metres and evidence of numerous small-scale historical workings. The veining is epithermal and comprises vuggy quartz, with abundant iron oxides (after sulphides). Forty-four rock chips samples have been analyzed from this program, with the highest gold value 6.96 grams per tonne (“g/t”). The veins are also anomalous in cobalt, arsenic and bismuth.

André Gauthier, President, commented, “We are happy with these initial gold results and what appears to be a very promising vein district. We plan to continue surface work to test the vein extensions and look at the other alteration zones in the coming months”.

The Lampa Gold Project is 4,800 hectares in size and located within a highly prospective structural corridor in southern Peru. Known deposits/mines in the same corridor include: Arasi (high sulphidation epithermal gold), El Cofre (low sulphidation epithermal silver), Pinaya (gold-copper porphyry), Berenguela (silver carbonate replacement) and San Judas (tungsten).

The geology comprises a predominantly sedimentary package of shales and slates of the Ananea Formation (Upper Silurian-Lower Devonian age) overlain by sandstones and quartzites (Jurassic age) and intruded by small stocks of diorite-tonalite and sills of quartz feldspar porphyry. On the west flank of the property, late andesite lava flows and agglomerates of the Tertiary-age cover the sedimentary package. The shales and slates of the Ananea Formation are host to important vein gold deposits in the Oriental Cordillera which are the source of the gold in the placers of the Madre de Dios.

Quality Control

The Lampa samples are fresh rock chips collected over 1.5 to 10 metres widths of alteration, with individual chips typically 2-3cm in size and individual samples 3.5 to 4.5 kilograms, with each tenth sample a field duplicate. The samples were prepared at the CIMM laboratory in Lima and analyzed for gold by 50 gram fire assay with atomic absorption finish and for other elements by ICP-35. Mercury was analyzed by the cold vapour method. The field duplicate samples (10 %) were analyzed in the same way at ALS Chemex in Lima.
