Blackheath Resources Commences Phase 2 Drill Program at Covas

 Blackheath Resources Inc. (TSXV:BHR,FWB:04B) commenced its Phase 2 drill program at the Covas Tungsten Project in Portugal. Phase 2 drilling is designed to expand the known zones of tungsten mineralization on the property and will include between 1,500 metres and 2,000 metres of drilling.

As quoted in the press release:

The Phase 2 drill program will focus on step-out expansion targets in the known tungsten bearing skarn zones which were previously identified by Blackheath in the Phase 1 drill program and by the 329 drill holes conducted by Union Carbide and others prior to 1980. Initial holes will test the Lapa Grande area, followed by testing of the Telheira area and results will be reported when available. Further drilling in Phase 2 will test new expansion potential at the Castelo, Muito Seco, and Cerdeirinha targets.

Blackheath Resources Inc. President and CEO, James Robertson, said:

The Phase 2 drill program at Covas is an exciting next step for Blackheath and our joint venture partner Avrupa Minerals. We achieved good success with our Phase 1 program and are eager to build on the historic resources at Covas through continued exploration and development.
