Global Hunter (GBLHF.PK)
Copper jewelry has been used throughout recorded history and across multiple cultures as a pain relief agent. Few scientific studies have been conducted on whether copper jewelry does provide pain relief benefits. Because so few studies have been done, it is difficult to researchers to say whether any positive results found in their studies were due to legitimate benefits of copper, or simply due to the placebo effect (the phenomenon of patient improvement solely due to psychological reasons, without actual treatment). However, there is a vast base of anecdotal evidence for pain relief due to wearing copper jewelry.

Global Hunter Corp. (GBLHF.PK) is pleased to announce initial assay results from its previously announced surface sampling program. The results are encouraging with new gold showings as well as very positive copper oxide assays over wide-spread areas.
Highlights of the entire program
9 mineralized shear and/or alteration zones sampled total of 13.5 kilometers of strike length along know copper bearing shear and alteration zones tested with 205 rock chip samples

Good grades of soluble copper (oxide) over a significantly large area have been identified, however they represent only about 50% of the total copper grade indicating a mixed oxide-sulphide zone. Numerous iron oxide structures have also been mapped but no iron assays have been received to date.

The Company is planning to re-assay samples for iron to determine if iron is present in significant quantities to represent another target.

Global Hunter’s focus is on strategic and base metals, with an advanced stage copper oxide project in Chile and a highly prospective molybdenum property in British Columbia, Canada. GBLHF exploration and development teams are on the ground rapidly advancing the La Corona de Cobre property near La Serena, Chile and the Rabbit South property in British Columbia, Canada. Either one of these projects could carry the company forward on a stand-alone basis, but together they bring the company additional stability, strength and value.
