Typhoon Exploration Inc. and its partner, Aurizon Mines Ltd., will also
begin a new geological survey with detailed mapping, trenching with new
rock and channel sampling.
The company continues its 50 000 meter drilling campaign using
3 drills. Two of these drills are used to better define and
expand at depth already identified mineralization zones on the Fayolle
Deposit. The other drill is used for the systematic exploration program
undertaken in late 2010 and covering a wide favorable corridor of more
than 2.5 km long by 1 km wide.
Typhoon Exploration Inc. will shortly be announcing the first
results of this drilling campaign.
