Casa Minerals (CASA) has mobilized an exploration crew to its Congress Gold Mine.

The mine is located in the Martinez Mining District of Yavapai County, Arizona.

The company owns a 90-percent interest in the Congress Gold Mine.

The mobilization is in preparation for the Vancouver-based exploration development company’s upcoming diamond drilling program.

The company expects to begin the drilling program following an initial period of ground exploration work.

The Congress Mine is Arizona’s largest gold-silver mine with the production of an estimated 500,000 ounces of gold at various intervals between 1887 and 1992.

Casa has recently compiled and digitized a majority of the historic data available, including several important vein systems in addition to historically mined out stopes and historically outlined mining stopes.

A geological model has been developed and will be enhanced with the new data when it has been thoroughly analyzed.

The current program is planned to map and re-sample outcropped veins, verify certain historic data with the GIS database, and investigate proposed diamond drill locations.

Casa Minerals is unchanged, trading at $0.12 at 11:19 a.m. EST.
