Premier Gold Mines Limited announced additional assay results from the Helen Zone on the company's Cove Gold Project, located in the Eureka-Battle Mountain Trend in Nevada. These results continue to expand mineralization, with strong grades and widths, along the Cove anticline to the southeast towards and below the historic mining operations. The Helen Zone deposit represents a prospective, high-grade, Carlin-style, gold deposit and is the focus of an ongoing drill program which is to extend the mineralization within both the Upper and Lower Helen Zone horizons.

Drilling has now expanded this mineralization by 213 meters (700 feet) to the southeast of previously drilled mineralization with the Helen Zones and the favorable horizons remain wide open. New drill holes confirm Premier's model that the Helen Zone is a flat-lying, Carlin-style deposit that occurs in favorable limestone and dolomite units and remains open along the favorable anticline structure that was host to the primary mineralized zones mined at the Cove pit.
