WCB Resources Ltd ("WCB" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:WCB) announces the
completion of a detailed heliborne magnetic survey covering EL1747 on Misima
Island, PNG. The survey is a component of a systematic exploration program
incorporating ongoing soil and rock chip sampling being conducted on EL1747.
Most recently, GPX Surveys of Perth, Australia were engaged to complete an
estimated 1,840 line kilometre detailed magnetic survey covering EL1747 with the
aim of better defining the geological character of the region including
alteration zonation and major structures which have the potential to host
significant gold - silver and copper - gold mineralisation.


The detailed aeromagnetic survey covering EL1747 has been completed with a total
of 1,840 line kilometres of magnetic data captured for processing. The flight
line spacing was 100m with a height of 40m using a Geometrics G822A magnetometer
stinger mounted on an AS350 B3 Helicopter. 


Cameron Switzer, President and CEO said "This airborne survey is the next stage
of our comprehensive and methodical exploration program. Historical production
and geological attributes make the Misima project one of the world's most
exciting emerging copper gold exploration projects. Data from this survey will
be evaluated in combination with our geochemical data set for field validation
and the ultimate identification of the highest impact drill targets." 


About EL1747

From a geological and mineral deposits perspective, EL1747 is located in the
same terrain and geological region that includes the deposits of Grasberg, Ok
Tedi, Hidden Valley, Wafi-Golpu, Lihir, Simberi and Panguna as well as
significant projects such as Tolukuma, Kainantu and Woodlark Island. Importantly
Misima Island has previously demonstrated mineral deposit pedigree through the
past production of 4.0M ounces of gold and 20M ounces of silver from various
operations but most recently the Misima Mine owned by Placer Dome Asia Pacific
(now Barrick Gold). This mine ceased open pit production in 2001 and closed in
2004. 


EL1747 Misima consists of 53 sub blocks covering an area of 180km2. The
exploration license was targeted due to the presence of a significant high order
copper stream sediment anomaly in multiple drainages which has received limited
detailed follow up activity. Furthermore, additional high order gold and zinc
anomalies have been identified and require follow up detailed work. 


WCB is expected to earn up to a 70% interest in EL1747 Misima by spending a
total of AUD9.0M within a 4 year timeframe.
