BOCA RATON, Fla., Sept. 4, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- New Asia Gold Corp (Pink Sheets:NWAG) wishes to confirm that there is good access to the Kampur Project in Indonesia that will allow its drilling program to go ahead. Equipment will be moved into the area by large barges on the Sebuku River and on site using logging roads.
The property has existing proven reserves of 330,000 ozs of gold. Promising additional targets were identified by reconnaissance sampling programs. Initial exploration drilling programs proved up significant gold reserves before drilling was terminated. Drilling was terminated before many of these promising targets could be drilled. The current infill drilling program will examine many of the promising targets as well as expand existing proven ore bodies. It is anticipated that the infill drilling program will convert certain probable reserves to proven reserves.
New Asia Gold Corp trades in the United States on the NQB Pink Sheets under the symbol "NWAG". For further information, please contact Nancy Goldman at (516) 962 4139 or at www.newasiagold.com.
