BOLERO PROVIDES UPDATE ON BALD BUTTE DRILL PROGRAM AND RESULTS OF JULY 9TH, 2007 SHAREHOLDER MEETING
United Bolero Development Corp. is providing an overview on the 5,500-metre (18,000-foot) diamond drill program currently under way at Bald Butte.
Diamond drill program
Drilling is being conducted in two 10-hour shifts per day. At the end of the July 12, 2007, night shift, 670 metres (2,197 feet) of core have been drilled. Two holes have now been completed. Hole BB07-1 was drilled to a depth of 426 metres (1,398 feet) and hole BB07-10 was drilled to 243.5 (799 feet). Drilling was started on the third hole (BB07-2) on July 13, 2007.
Core logging and assaying
The core is being sawed, photographed and geologically logged at United Bolero's core facility located in Silver City, Mont., approximately nine miles east of the Bald Butte property. One-half of each sample interval is being shipped to ALS Chemex Laboratories for analysis. On July 11, 2007, the company shipped 286 metres (938 feet) of core to ALS Chemex Laboratories in Nevada and anticipates results within the next three weeks.
Second diamond drill arrives
Based on encouraging mineralization recognized in the first two core holes, Ruen Drilling Inc. of Clark Fork, Idaho, mobilized a second core drilling rig to the Bald Butte site on Sunday, July 15. This second rig will allow the company to fast-track the planned drilling program to ensure that the entire program and possible follow-on drilling can be completed during the summer drilling season.
