Perth, June 10, 2008 (ABN Newswire) - Image Resources Limited (ASX:IMA)(PINK:IMREF) announce a detailed ground magnetic survey (100m line spacing) has been completed over a recently granted tenement (E70/3328) at Cooljarloo North. The survey has identified two anomalous zones some 0.5km x 1.5km and 0.5km x 1.2km in area as shown on the map below. The western anomalous zone is interpreted to be the northern extension of the Helene heavy mineral resource. Indicated Resources at Helene currently stand at 11.5Mt @ 4.5%HM using a 2.5% HM cut off as shown in the tables below.

The strong response in the core of the targeted extension indicates potential to increase the strike length of the Helene resource to 5.3km and to significantly increase this resource. In addition, the eastern magnetic target identified suggests potential for a third mineralised strand at Cooljarloo North which has yet to be tested. Subject to finalisation of land access agreements and to rig availability, Image plans to start a 6,500m drilling programme on these attractive targets in July.
