Results of the first infill hole in this zone, LE-K-64, were previously disclosed in a news release dated February 2, 2011. \"We are pleased with the higher grade results of these holes, in particular the high grade intercepts in holes LE-K-66 and LE-K-64,\" said Dorian L. (Dusty) Nicol, Tournigan's President and CEO.  \"We expect that this will lead to an increase in the average grade of the deposit and a conversion of Inferred Resource to Indicated.\"Highlights of these results are:* Hole LE-K-65: 0.7 metres at 0.335% eU3O8;* Hole LE-K-66: 1.6 metres at 0.688% eU3O8% including 0.2 metres at  2.264% eU3O8 and 0.7 metres at 0.783% eU3O8;* Hole LE-K-64 (previously disclosed) had an intercept of 2.6 metres at  0.793% eU3O8  including 0.7 metres at 2.096% eU3O8, the highest grade  uranium intercept in the Main Zone South area;* All three infill holes intersected higher grade uranium mineralization  compared to the current Inferred Resource model grade of 0.174% eU3O8  in this part of the deposit;* These holes are expected to have a beneficial impact on current  resource grade and upgrade Inferred Resources to the Indicated  category; and,* Results confirm the thickness and geological interpretation of the  resource model and increase confidence in the current resource model.A complete tabulation of significant intersections from these holes is presented in Appendix A which can be viewed from this web link http://www.tournigan.com/i/maps/20110307-MainZoneSouthAppendixA.pdf.  Drill hole locations can be viewed from this web link http://www.tournigan.com/i/maps/20110307-KuriskovaMarchInfill2011.pdf.  The Kuriskova resource model is being re-estimated with the inclusion of 2010 and 2011 drilling results as part of the ongoing Prefeasibility Study being done by Tetra Tech and will be released in late March or early April 2011.
