West Timmins Mining Inc. [1] (WTM) reported on the drilling results of their wholly owned Montana de Oro project in Sonora, Mexico. They have extended the La Dura Copper zone to more than 1,000 metres along the north-south drill section.
Copper mineralization has been intersected over down-hole widths of 61 to over 300 metres with grades ranging between 0.10% and 0.22% copper.

"Drilling has rapidly expanded the scale of the La Dura Copper discovery consistent with the interpretation that we are sitting on the eastern margin of a large porphyry copper system," said Darin Wagner, President and CEO of West Timmins Mining Inc. "The identification of a gold-rich phase in the southern portion of this system adds significantly to the potential of this discovery, as does the identification of similar alteration and anomalous copper, lead, zinc and silver mineralization in drilling 3.5 kilometres to the southwest of the discovery hole."
