Kuriskova’s Main Zone South Intersected Higher Grade Uranium Mineralization

By Joel ScanlonMar 10 2011

Information about the second and third infill drill holes, LE-K-65 and LE-K-66 in the Main Zone South of the Kuriskova uranium deposit in Slovakia was announced by Tournigan Energy on March 7, 2011.

Results of the first infill hole in this zone, LE-K-64, were previously disclosed in a news release dated February 2, 2011.

According to results, higher grade uranium mineralization was intersected in all three infill holes when compared to the current Inferred Resource model grade of 0.174% eU3O8 in this part of the deposit. Another highlight of the results is that these holes seem to benefit the current resource grade and upgrade Inferred Resources to the Indicated category.

On January 14, 2011, Tournigan started the drilling program to upgrade and expand the Kuriskova uranium resource. Results obtained confirm the geological interpretation and thickness of the resource model. The ongoing Prefeasibility Study done by Tetra Tech re-estimates the Kuriskova resource model with the inclusion of 2010 and 2011 drilling results and is scheduled to be released in late March or early April 2011.
