The Pinguino, Cerro Contreras and Condor properties are the\n current focus of advanced exploration activities.\n\n\nPinguino Silver Project\n\n\nIn preparation for extensive new drilling scheduled to commence shortly,\n Argentex has completed a program of advanced exploration and drill\n target definition including trenching and geophysics.  Approximately\n 275 line-kilometers of ground magnetometer surveys have been completed\n as well as 1,200 meters of trenching and channel sampling in key areas\n of precious metal mineralization.\n\n\nApproximately 17,000 meters of drilling is planned in 2011 for the\n Pinguino property.  Argentex plans to begin drill-testing the extents\n of previously identified high-grade silver targets. These areas include\n the Tranquilo and Luna veins at Pinguino, which returned high-grade\n results in previous drill programs, including 6.0 meters of over 2,400\n g/t silver and 0.22 g/t gold and 6.4 meters of 486.6 g/t silver and\n 1.91 g/t gold\n\n\nMore than 50 individual veins have so far been discovered at Pinguino,\n with a combined strike length in excess of 75 line kilometers. ...
