Highlands Pacific Ltd [ASX: HIG] - New Discovery - Star Mountains, PNG

Highlands Pacific Limited (ASX: HIG) is pleased to report assays from the first hole at the Kum Kom prospect in the Star Mountains in Papua New Guinea that highlight the potential for another copper-gold porphyry-skarn system just 5 km north of the Olgal porphyry identified in 2012 that contained a 596 metre intersection of 0.61% copper and 0.85g/t gold.

Kum Kom Hole 1 drilling results include copper-gold skarn mineralisation:
� 22m @ 1.42% Copper & 0.57g/t Gold from 146m down hole
� 10m @ 0.68% Copper & 0.21g/t Gold from 220m down hole
� 68m @ 0.97% Copper & 0.37g/t Gold from 280m down hole

The Kum Kom prospect approximately 25kms northeast from Ok Tedi copper mine is the fifth prospect drilled by Highlands in the Star Mountains, the fourth that has encountered copper porphyry mineralisation and the first with skarn-style alteration - often associated with higher grade copper-gold zones.

Assays have been received for the 354 metre diamond core hole at Kum Kom (001KUM12) and assays are pending for a further 480 metre second drill hole (002KUM12) from the same pad position but in the opposite direction.
