Tumi signs diamond drill contract for La Gloria, Sonora, Mexico

VANCOUVER, Nov. 15, 2011 /CNW/ - Tumi Resources Limited (the 'Company') (TSXV - TM, Frankfurt - TUY, Pink Sheets - TUMIF). Mr. David Henstridge, President, announces that a diamond drill contract has been signed with Falcon Perforaciones Mexico, S.A. de C.V. This program will be the first undertaken at the La Gloria gold-tungsten-tin skarn that produced a small amount of tungsten ore by crude mining and concentrating methods in 1956. La Gloria is located about 250 km by road east of Hermosillo, Sonora and is held within two contiguous mineral claims totalling 200 hectares optioned from a private Mexican owner.

A total of five holes are proposed in this program commencing with a hole on grid line 100 where a 32 m wide channel sample averaged 3.3 g/t gold, 958 ppm tungsten and 498 ppm tin. Two further holes will be drilled on grid lines 00 and 200, each 100m either side from the first hole. Another two holes are proposed elsewhere within the skarn body as an initial test of the extent of mineralization.

Mr. Henstridge stated: 'The signing of this contract so soon after completing our surface sampling program is very pleasing, and we look forward to the start of this program. It is hoped that the program will be completed this year.'
