Tasca Resources has Engaged Consulting Engineers for Bleiberg Permitting



Vancouver, British Columbia (FSCwire) - Tasca Resources Ltd. ("Tasca", "TAC" or the "Company") (TSX Venture: TAC) (Frankfurt: 3TA) is pleased to announce that it has engaged Montaningenieurgemeinschaft Consulting Engineers OEG ("MCE") of Austria to initiate the permitting process for the further exploration of the Bleiberg zinc-lead-germanium-fluorite project, located in southern Austria.

About MCE

Montaningenieurgemeinschaft Consulting Engineers OEG provides engineering and consulting services for development, design and planning of industrial and infrastructure projects including special services in the areas of geology and hydrogeology, geotechnical engineering and urban and environmental planning and permit application design.

Bleiberg Project

The Bleiberg Property consists of 116 mining concessions in the land registry municipalities of Bad Bleiberg, N??tsch im Gailtal, St. Stefan im Gailtal and Paternion in southwestern Austria. The Bleiberg Property hosts an extensive mining infrastructure with more than 1150 kilometres of tunnels and 3 mine shafts. Historic production was about 500,000 tons per year, and it was one of the 6 largest Germanium producers in the world while it was in production. Mineralization consists of stratabound galena and sphalerite within Triassic limestones and intercalated carbonates. The sphalerite also carries average values of 200 parts per million germanium and 2000 parts per million cadmium. The historically mined mineralized bodies were stratiform zones ranging from 1 metre thick and 100 metres in diameter to 5 metres thick and several hundred metres in diameter.

MCE has been engaged to design and permit the Phase I exploration program at Bleiberg. In order to minimize the permitting timeline, MCE has determined exploration should be focussed from the underground workings, rather than surface. MCE is proposing geophysical surveys consisting of IP and seismic surveys within the workings, focussing primarily on the crosscut access drifts to search for additional footwall and hanging wall structures within the structural zone and also new structures along strike to the northwest. The surveys will be followed up with a Phase II underground diamond drilling program.
