. High Priority .Medium Priority . Low Priority
The company has selected five high priority drill targets located along the Copper Mountain Trend and are planned to be drilled to average maximum depth of 300 meters per target.
The 2011 exploration program will consist of a minimum of 1500 meters of diamond drilling.
The logistics to mobilize crews and drills to the property has begun and the company will report on the progress.
Al Levien CEO states "The Company has been waiting for 2 years to drill these high priority targets on the TAS property. Unfortunately the logging activity in the area interfered with our TAS exploration programs in 2009 & 2010. Now with the logging completed, the area is now accessible to drill and we all look forward to the drilling results".
Further news will be forthcoming in the near future.
