Announced further results of ongoig drilling at the Drenthe platinum group metals (PGM) and nickel deposit. The results from the infill core drilling program have confirmed the continuity of the mineralization within the Drenthe platinum group metals and nickel deposit. Highlights from the recent results include: 90.0 m grading 1.67 g/t 3PGM (Pt+Pd+Au), 0.19% Ni and 0.12% Cu in hole PR-318, 48.0 m grading 1.47 g/t 3PGM, 0.15% Ni and 0.08% Cu in hole PR-334; and 54.2 m grading 1.63 g/t 3PGM, 0.21% Ni and 0.14% Cu in hole PR-350. The 2005 infill drilling program focused on the Drenthe deposit, testing the mineralization on a 50 by 50 m grid pattern in order to define measured mineral resources and advance the project toward a Bankable Feasibility Study. One hundred and thirty six vertical holes, totaling 24,418.23 metres, were drilled from January to June 2005.
