Tan Range Announces Sample Results from Kibara Project in Tanzania

Vancouver, British Columbia (ots/PRNewswire)

The Company is
pleased to announce preliminary sampling results from the  Nyakona
Hill area on its Kibara project in the Lake Victoria goldfields of
northwest Tanzania.
Following up on gold anomalies previously recognized by regional
BLEG  sampling and on high copper and gold values from one grab
sample in March and  June of 2004, field crews collected 12 grab
samples, mostly as float, which  were submitted for analysis. Many of
these samples were noted in the field to  have high copper
concentrations.
In addition, a 100m x 100m grid was established over the initial
copper- gold anomaly and soil samples were collected for
multi-element analysis.  Assessment of this multi-element data is
still in progress but maximum values  of 0.198 ppm and 2760 ppm were
observed for gold and copper respectively.
The grab sampling yielded the following assay results:
                Sample No         Gold              Copper
                            (grams per tonne)        (%)
                J-6733            3.33                18.15
                J-6734            2.20         less than 1%
                J-6735            1.45                 1.25
                J-6736            0.73         less than 1%
                J-6737            2.80                17.15
                J-6738            1.25         less than 1%
                J-6739            0.03         less than 1%
                J-6740            3.44                6.61%
                J-6741            3.27                5.70%
                J-6742            0.15         less than 1%
                J-6743            0.02         less than 1%
                J-6744            0.09         less than 1%
According to the Company's President, John Deane, "the occurrence
on  Nyakona hill would appear to be structurally-hosted rather than
stratigraphic," while observing that a copper-gold association occurs
at  Barrick's Bulyanhulu mine and Chocolate Reef deposit.
Jim Sinclair, the Company's Chairman and CEO, described the
results as  "highly encouraging" while noting that follow-up work
will include a  biogeochemistry survey and drilling.
"This is one of many high potential targets that we intend to
aggressively evaluate immediately after our new drill rig arrives in
early  2005," he said.
