CALGARY, Alberta – Alhambra Resources Ltd. (TSX Venture: ALH) (“Alhambra” or the “Corporation”), an international gold producer and explorer, announces that the Corporation has initiated geophysical surveys comprised of both gravity and magnetic surveys and a remote sensing survey on its 100% owned, 9,800 km2, Uzboy Project area (“Uzboy Project”) (see Figure 1).
HIGHLIGHTS
- An initial gravity survey of 1,360 km2 and a 1,070 km2 magnetic survey is being prepared,
- The surveys will be conducted on the southeast part of the license including Dombraly and Shirotnaia,
- Field magnetic measurements will be conducted along a 1.0 by 0.1 kilometre (“km”) grid and the gravity measurements along a 1.0 by 1.0 km grid,
- The interpretation of a satellite imagery remote sensing survey which began in July is in progress,

Two New Zones of High Grade Gold Mineralization Discovered at Shirotnaia – Additional Assays Pending January 6, 2011

CALGARY, Alberta – Alhambra Resources Ltd. (TSX Venture: ALH) (“Alhambra” or the “Corporation”) announces that its diamond drilling program at Shirotnaia has resulted in the discovery of two new zones of higher grade gold mineralization. The Shirotnaia zone (“Shirotnaia”) is located within its 100% owned Uzboy Project in Kazakhstan and is immediately adjacent to the Aksu and Quartzite Hills gold deposits currently being mined by KazakhGold Group Limited (“KazakhGold”).
HIGHLIGHTS
• Diamond Drill Hole (“DDH”) 100-02 intersected 4.32 grams per tonne (“g/t”) gold over an interval of 36.0 metres (“m”) including a higher grade interval of 16.80 g/t gold over 9.0 m
• DDH 32-02 intersected 2.13 g/t gold over an interval of 20 m • Broad intervals of anomalous gold concentrations (for +0.10 g/t) were intersected in all nine drill holes
DRILLING PROGRAM
The drilling program consisted of nine holes totaling 1,141 m (see image below). The objective of this drilling program was to test the depth extension of the large gold anomaly previously outlined by the 2008 Rotary Air blast (“RAB”) drilling program.
Two significant widths of high grade gold mineralization were encountered within a large area of lower grade goldmineralization, suggesting the probable continuation of the high grades to depth as is usual for this style of mineralization. In fact, previous RAB drilling programs completed in Shirotnaia identified a large gold anomaly and significant gold mineralization with a high peak gold grade of up to 51.6 g/t (see news release dated March 4, 2010).
