Business Wire
Tosca Mining Corporation, (TSQ.V; US:TSMNF; FSE:TQ4), announces
that drilling has commenced on its Red Hills Molybdenum-Copper
project, located in Presidio County, Texas.
The purpose of the 4000 meter drill program is to:
1. Verify previous drilling within a near-surface copper blanket
and to collect samples for metallurgical recovery test work,
previous drilling had established a noncompliant historic resource
of 17 million tonnes at .35% copper.
2. Carry out a preliminary assessment of a separate high-grade
copper zone discovered by previous operators, who reported three
intersections ranging from 6.12% copper to 9.09% copper over 21
meters and 33.5 meters respectively
3. Drill deeper holes, adjacent to a number of short historical
drill holes that ended in strong molybdenum mineralization, and
4. Test for extensions of the molybdenum system. The deepest
historical hole (Duval 7) was drilled to a vertical depth of 2106
feet (642 meters), averaged 0.076% Mo throughout
Note that in this news release all reference to previous
studies, drill results and resource estimates is based on historic
information. Since a qualified person has not done sufficient work
to verify the historical data and estimates, the historical data

Dr. Sadek E. El-Alfy, Chairman and CEO states;
“Diamond drilling has commenced on the Red Hills property and
2,000 feet of core has already been shipped to Skyline Labs of
Tucson, Arizona. Skyline is recognized as an industry leader for
all types of base metal, ferrous and non-ferrous analysis including
high quality ore-grade assays. The Company is advancing
the Red Hills project diligently; Agreements were signed during
