RESULTS FROM BULK FLOTATION AND CYANIDATION TESTS

OF TOCANTINZINHO GOLD ORE VERY POSITIVE

Houston, Texas: Brazauro Resources (TSXV: BZO) is pleased to announce very positive results from bulk flotation and cyanidation tests on gold ore from the Company’s Tocantinzinho Gold Project in Brazil, as performed and reported by Hazen Research, Inc.

Previous flotation work by Hazen, performed on smaller samples, yielded a gold grade of approximately 64 g/t and a gold recovery of 93% with a rougher stage and a single cleaner stage. The focus of the current work was to demonstrate bulk flotation by processing 100 kg of sample (in 10-kg batches using a one-cubic-foot cell) and to investigate cyanide leachability of the final concentrate.

Modifications to the flotation conditions used in the previous small-scale testing were required to scale-up to the 10-kg. batch size. Several tests focused on improving the gold recovery by adjusting the conditions. The best result was obtained by grinding to approximately 150-mesh and using a gold collector, followed by flotation with a rougher stage and three cleaner stages. This yielded a gold grade of 140 g/t and gold recovery of 90%.

The conditions for this test were used for bulk flotation on the last 50 kg of sample, which produced a rougher concentrate that contained 94% of the gold. The recovery and grade of the final concentrate after the third cleaner stage were 85% and 140 g/t Au, respectively. Almost 10% of the gold reported to the cleaner tails and some of this gold can be recovered during recycling.

A gold extraction of 98% was obtained on the final bulk concentrate by cyanide leaching. Due to the presence of sulfides in the concentrate, cyanide consumption was high at 5.10 kg/t. However, since only 1% of the head weight is being subjected to the final cyanidation, this is insignificant.

The content of this release has been reviewed and approved by Stephen Zahony, consultant to the Company and a Qualified Person.
