Other Events
     

 
 

 

Management is in the process of analyzing initial exploration targets for its Little Butte project in Arizona.  This is an advanced stage project and is near drill ready. As a result management is in the process of making a decision for initiating its first phase of activity on the project.  Management has already analyzed the location and access to working on the property.  In Arizona during the summer months the temperatures become extremely high so with this in mind management is meeting to expedite work on the project and hopes to have drill dates within the next few weeks.  Management is not overly concerned with the high temperatures in the region but with that in mind we believe it is important to begin working on the property immediately.
