Patrick Highsmith, CEO of Bellhaven, commented:

We continue to be very pleased with our results at the La Mina Project. We have just completed over 7,200 meters of drilling in 2012 at Middle Zone; and the last of those drill results will be released in early September. Now we have moved the drill north to the El Limon porphyry. We are planning to drill at least 1,200 meters there, but as always, that may change based on results. Then we expect the drill to return to the area around and between La Cantera and Middle Zone, where our geologists are planning to test several new targets.

We are adding a lot of new data to our already-significant target database. The new ZTEM survey will apply state-of-the-art deep-penetrating electromagnetics to the La Mina targets for the first time. Our current efforts will integrate all the geophysics with the more than 3,200 recently collected soil samples. We can already see significant enhancements in our understanding of El Limon and La Cristalina.
