08:00 ET - News Release
LONDON,
Sept. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Tuffnell Ltd. (Tuffnell or "the Company") (OTC Bulletin
Board: TUFF) is pleased to announce that it has acquired 12 additional mining
claims at its Little Butte project. This brings the total unpatented claims held
to 85. Total land holdings including patented claims total 1,840 acres or 2.88
square miles.
The new
claims were added to cover any possible northwest extensions of the Company's
recently discovered high-grade gold/copper mineralization. Tuffnell now controls
claims for approximately 5,000 feet to the northwest from the discovery drill
hole, LB1010.
Mr.
George Dory, Tuffnell's CEO stated, "We are very satisfied that our team has
been out in the field and was able to acquire these additional mining
claims. The Company believes that these new claims are extremely
beneficial to the company by not only creating a stronger land position, but
also by securing additional lands in the direct proximity of the significant
find, namely drill hole LB1010."
The
Company is now planning its Phase II exploration program. This program
will be initiated in the fall of 2010.
Shareholders
and the public are encouraged to visit www.tuffex.com for

About The
Company
Tuffnell
Ltd. (OTC BB:
TUFF) is a mineral exploration company focused on maximizing returns for
its shareholders by exploring and developing low-cost gold assets in proven
mining districts. With a focus primarily on the State of Arizona, Tuffnell
Exploration has put together a team of highly qualified, strongly motivated
individuals with the experience required to advance our corporate vision.
Based on
geological potential, infrastructure proximity, and previously undertaken
exploration, Tuffnell Ltd. selects properties of merit so as to provide its
shareholders with the highest probability of success. The Company's main
property, known as Little Butte, is located in La Paz County, Arizona and has
previous exploration history indicating that resources are present and the
prospect for economic recovery of gold support management's decision to proceed
with further exploration. Tuffnell holds a 100% option to 85 unpatented mining
claims and 7 patented claims. The Little Butte project lies in the historic
Plomosa District, 20 miles north of the town of Quartzite, Arizona and
approximately 150 miles southeast of Las Vegas, Nevada. Based solely on
historical records and drilling data from the former claim holder, the Company
believes its property has the potential to host up to 1.0 million oz of gold.
Little Butte is located in the world famous Walker Lane Gold Trend. The Walker
Lane gold belt has historically produced over 50 million ounces of gold and 400
million ounces of silver.
