Tawsho Mining Inc. Provides Whisker Valley Update
"Given the promising results of the 2011 summer drill campaign, previously announced in press releases dated August 22nd, 2011 and September 19th, 2011, with gold showings of up to 1.4 ounces per ton over 0.15m in one of the holes (No. 8) and significant gold showing in 6 of the of the 11 holes drilled, Tawsho is currently carrying out trenching in selected areas in order to expose the veins near the surface which will lead to a better understanding of the mineralization and underlying structure. We are most pleased with the results of the 2011 summer drill campaign. The results from the trenching program will help target the drill sites for the upcoming winter drilling program currently being planned," stated Dr. Michael Avedesian, CEO.
Tawsho is pleased to announce that it has re-negotiated the option agreement, with Rhino Exploration Ltd. (Rhino) for its Whisker Valley property in Newfoundland, by reducing the required cash payments by $575,000 and having the option to reduce the net smelter royalty (NSR) payable to the vendors, from 3% to 1%, for a cost of $2.5 million.
"These changes will help Tawsho accelerate the exploration program and share the risk of achieving commercial success on this property, especially in light of the promising results from its 2011 drill program," declared Dr. Avedesian.
