(\"Ramelius\") (ASX:RMS), our funding partner at Angel Wing, started its 2013 drill program.  Ramelius plans four reverse circulation (RC) drill holes totaling approximately 4,300 ft (1,310 m) to further test geophysical targets beneath volcanic cover.  Angel Wing is an epithermal vein and sediment-hosted gold project in northeast Elko County, Nevada.  \nDuring 2012, Ramelius drilled seven of its 12 RC holes into the southwest margin of an aeromagnetic anomaly Ramelius refers to as the Grass Hollow anomaly.  This doughnut-shaped anomaly is approximately 1,200 ft (365 m) in diameter and with a central low about 400 x 500 ft (120 x 170 m).  Grass Hollow and vicinity are underlain by a succession of Tertiary rhyolitic tuffs, Tertiary conglomerate, and Triassic limestone.  Gold mineralization is in the upper 200 ft (60 m) of limestone and is associated with decalcification and pervasive silicification.  Anomalous arsenic, antimony, and mercury extend upward into the conglomerate and tuffs.  All seven holes penetrated deep enough to intersect the altered limestone and gold mineralization.  Furthermore, all seven intersected gold grades above 0.01 oz Au/ton (0.343 g Au/t) and with a maximum five-foot (1.5 m) intercept of 0.413 oz Au/ton (14.150 g Au/t) in drill hole AW12-06.  The following table summarizes the four Grass Hollow holes with the longest or strongest gold intercepts.\n-***-\n---------------------------------\nHole ID  Interval Length  Grade\n           (ft)    (ft)  (oz/ton)\n                            Au\n---------------------------------\nAW12-05  640-685    45    0.010\n---------------------------------\n         730-795 &...
