(PX:TSX-V) ("Pelangio" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on the drilling program on its property near Obuasi, Ghana (the "Obuasi Property"). The Company has now completed drilling for the year, having drilled 12 holes totaling 4,200 metres. These holes are part of Pelangio's first phase drilling program, which now contemplates 40 holes totaling 12,000 metres to be drilled by the end of the first quarter of 2010. Pelangio expects to commence the second phase of the program, approximately 20,000 metres, in the second quarter of 2010.
Pelangio has used VTEM surveying to trace the structures associated with gold mineralization at the Obuasi Mine through the Obuasi Property. The drilling completed to date has successfully encountered these structures, assays on which are pending.
Pelangio expects to release the assays from all drilling completed to date in mid- to late-January 2010.
