is the market asleep ????? .... announcement out 10:07am EST
Following the 6th June 2011 announcement on Transit?s move to 90% ownership of its operating subsidiary K2O Utah LLC, Transit Holdings (?Transit? or the ?Company?) is pleased to announce that the company has received approval from the state of Utah for drilling and further exploration on the Paradox Basin Potash Project (?Project?) in Utah within two months of filing. The joint venture is currently preparing the programme and budget for an initial drill campaign that will include the drilling of 4 exploratory wells on the State lease locations as part of the Project?s Pre- Feasibility Study. Now that approvals and the bonding have been accepted the Company can finalise selection of drilling contractor and plan to begin drilling in July/August 2011. Mr Kermit Allen , an engineer and solution mining veteran of over 40 years experience who inter alia oversaw the design and construction of US Strategic Petroleum reserve capacity in salt domes through solution mining, will supervise this drilling program. After the four holes are drilled and results analysed the Company expects to have a JORC compliant statement of resources. Work will now begin on approvals to drill on federal land to further delineate the resource. An exploration target of 2.3 billion tonnes of sylvinite potash ore at 32.8%KCl has been delineated within the Project.
