Pro Minerals up 12% on start of drilling at Shining Tree gold project in Ontario
Pro Minerals (TSX.V – PRM) has begun mobilizing drill equipment and crews to its Shining Tree gold project, located in the Shining Tree gold camp southwest of Kirkland Lake, Ontario.
The company said it will begin the initial stage of a multi-phase drill program, with equipment and crews on site starting today, prompting Pro's shares to jump more than 12% on Tuesday to $0.09 as of 12:14 pm EST.
Pro Minerals intends to begin drilling on the highest priority targets identified earlier this year from geological and geophysical surveys. It is anticipated that drilling will continue for up to 2000 metres on multiple sites before year-end, it added.
The drilling represents the first ever on Pro’s Shining Tree property near Beilby Lake, despite the proximity of gold-bearing veins and structures within 200 metres at the Gold Corona – Pet Vein, Churchill Veins and Rhyolite Vein occurrences.
The company already has additional targets planned for testing in 2011.
