Blackheath Reports Results for Vale das Gatas Tungsten Project
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Dec 12, 2013) -
Blackheath Resources Inc. (TSX-VENTURE:BHR)(FRANKFURT:04B)
("Blackheath" or the "Company") is pleased to report results from
preliminary work at the recently-acquired 213 square kilometre Vale
das Gatas Tungsten/Tin Project. Mapping and sampling over the
Prainelas area, approximately 1.5 square kilometres in size, has so
far located at least 12 waste dumps from previous workings and at
least 30 tungsten-bearing quartz veins over a distance of 900
metres.
A single grab sample taken from one of the tungsten-bearing
veins assayed 6.60% WO3 or 66 kg/tonne. Six grab samples were taken
from six of the waste dumps and averaged 0.68% WO3 (tungsten
trioxide) or 6.8 kg/tonne, ranging from 1.43% to 0.18% WO3 with
additional tin values averaging 0.11% Sn. (These must be
considered to be preliminary selected samples, and as such, may not
be representative of average values for each area.)
"We are delighted with the early encouraging results from our
reconnaissance work at Vale das Gatas," said James Robertson,
P.Eng., President & CEO of Blackheath Resources. "This mine is
the second-largest past producer of tungsten in Portugal after
closing in 1986 because of depressed tungsten prices. Tungsten
price is now around $38/kg and we look forward to carrying out
further work including diamond drilling at Vale das Gatas in early
2014."
The Company also reports the resignation of Marshall Farris from
the board of directors of Blackheath. Mr. Farris was a founding
director of the Company and leaves to pursue other business
interests. We wish him every success in his future activities.

On behalf of the Board,
