Explor Starts Diamond Drilling Program on the Destor Gold Property

Explor Resources Inc. is pleased to announce the commencement of a 2500 meter Diamond Drilling Program on its Destor Gold Property. The Destor Property is located in located in the central part of Destor township approximately 30,6 km north of Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec. Excellent access is provided by Highway 393 that traverses the northern part of the property and connects to the town of Duparquet, Quebec. The property consists of 10 mining claims covering an area of approximately 279 hectares.

The property is located in a greenstone belt approximately 1 km north of the Porcupine Destor Fault Zone, a major structure which is spatially related to several major gold deposits. Numerous faults, shears and other structural features closely related to the main Porcupine Destor Fault Zone occur on the claim group. The two most significant faults on the claim group are the Duquesne and the Lepine Lake Faults.

The Destor Property is located halfway between the former Beattie Gold Mine and the Aiguebelle mine. The southern portion of the Destor Property hosts similar sheared and faulted feldspar porphyries which host the past-producing Duquesne mine located 1,6 km along strike to the east.

Explor has completed a VTEM survey on the property and compiled all known public and private geological data. Several high priority targets have been generated and a 10 hole, 2500 meter drill program is planned on the property.
