VANCOUVER, March 10 – Tirex Resources Ltd. has announced that a second core drill had arrived in Albania for work on the Mirdita Copper-Zinc-Gold Project. The new drill is expected to accelerate the company’s district-wide exploration program.
The first drill will continue to work on verifying historic drill results on known deposits.
The second drill will be dedicated to testing new exploration targets generated by a combination of historical data compilation, results from the Tirex 2007 airborne geophysical survey and follow-up of UTEM ground geophysical work.
The second drill is scheduled to test some of the numerous exploration targets defined by historical work and Tirex geophysics, but never previously explored. The initial target for the second drill will be the Shebe North area where a well defined geophysical target lies on a critical geological horizon. From there, the second drill will move on to other previously untested exploration targets.
Tirex’s focus is the exploration and development of the large 344 square kilometer Mirdita Property in Albania.
Located 70 km north of Tirana, the property is readily accessible by paved and gravel roads. (Tirana Times Staff)
