CALGARY, Apr 27, 2011 (Canada NewsWire via COMTEX News Network) --
Erin Ventures Inc. (TSXV: EV) reports that exploration is well underway in preparation for a quality drilling program to develop a NI 43-101 qualified resource at the Piskanja borate project in Serbia. The intent is to initiate drilling in June of this year. The first phase of drilling will consist of approximately 5,000 metres of HQ size core drilling.
Unexpected delays in receiving certain historical exploration data and drill core from the Serbian authorities set back the drilling target date by three months from Erin's original plans. Erin has now received most known available historical exploration data, including copies of the results of historical drilling conducted by Ibar Mines (a Serbian government-owned company), Erin Ventures, and Rio Tinto, completed in three separate exploration programs over a twenty year period.
