De Beira Goldfields Inc.: Titiribi Resource Estimate PERTH, WESTERN AUSTRALIA--(CCNMatthews - Dec. 13, 2006) - De Beira Goldfields Inc ("DE BEIRA" or the "Company") (OTCBB:DBGF)(FWB:D1Q)(WKN:A0JDS0) is pleased to announce an Inferred Resource estimate for the Titiribi Project located in Colombia.
De Beira commissioned Raylar Pty Ltd, an Australian based geological consultancy, to review the existing data and to calculate an inferred resource estimate for the Titiribi Copper Gold project in Colombia.
Raylar Pty Ltd has also concluded that, on the basis of its current interpretation of the limited drill data, considerable potential exists at Titiribi to expand the resource base. The deposit is open along strike and at depth, and the Company is confident the current drilling campaign will reveal further mineralisation.
Raylar Pty Ltd has reported as follows:

Uncomposited drill data was used to fill the block model, 1452 assay records were used. Gold (Au) and copper (Cu) were estimated using inverse distance squared methodology. Geological continuity between sections was assumed and a search radius of 400m, approximate distance between 'fence lines', was utilised. The search ellipse was orientated towards 080 as the drilling seemed to define a broad trend in this direction. No further rotations were assigned to the search ellipse. Each cell had a minimum of 2 assay records required and a maximum of 32 in creating cell estimations. No top-cuts were used. Specific gravity of 2.6 was used.
The resource estimation is considered as inferred and the figures are outlined in the table above. These numbers are preliminary and are still undergoing validation as further drilling continues. Raylar Pty Ltd made assumptions with respect to bulk densities, the reliability of the data provided, the appropriateness of the analytical techniques, the representative nature of the sampling, natural surface elevations, the geological continuity of the mineralisation and the structural controls on grade distribution. All these aspects are undergoing further investigation.
The Titiribi project gold and copper resource reported herein is classified as inferred as defined in the 2004 Edition of the "Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves" (the "JORC" Code). The JORC Code is widely accepted as a standard for professional reporting purposes. The resource is classified as inferred as a consequence of drill spacing and density, insufficient bulk density data and insufficient data on the weathering profile. However, accuracy of reported surface drilling and associated data is believed to be good.
