As announced on March 14, 2012, the company expects to start drilling in the coming days for Galloway Project. The slight delay was caused by the early thaw which required special equipment to transport drilling equipment. The first drill hole will be about 1,200 meters and located within the area called the Golden Triangle. It is possible that from the same drill hole a wedge will be placed at 350 metres to provide an additional section.
