Image Resources NL Stock Market Press Releases and Company Profile

Perth, Aug 20, 2008 AEST (ABN Newswire) - Image Resources NL (ASX:IMA)(PINK:IMREF) is pleased to announce a joint venture on its 230sq km 100%-owned Bronco Plains gold project situated 140km east of Kalgoorlie in Western Australia.

The Image tenements occur on the 300km-long Tropicana-Beachcomber trend, where AngloGold Ashanti Australia Ltd (AGA) and Independence Group NL (IGO), have identified an initial 4 million ounce gold resource at Tropicana (IGO ASX release 3 December 2007). In addition to Tropicana, AGA and IGO have identified numerous other gold prospects as shown on the attached map. The Tropicana-Beachcomber trend is interpreted to be located on the collision zone between the Yilgarn Craton and the Fraser Range Mobile Belt and is considered to have potential to be a new Australian gold province.

Wide-spaced sampling by Image on its tenements has identified several areas of gold and multi-element anomalism which warrant further sampling and drill testing.

The initial sampling was targeted on structurally complex areas interpreted from aeromagnetic data in areas of extensive cover.

Under the terms of the agreement AGA and IGO may earn a combined 72% interest in two contiguous exploration licences by sole funding $2million of expenditure within four years. Subject to completion of the necessary permitting, it is anticipated that AGA and IGO will commence follow-up sampling and drilling during the next three months. Image is encouraged by the results of its sampling at Bronco Plains and by the opportunity to participate in exploration of this emerging gold province.
