Kangasjärvi VMS Drilling Commences

Avrupa Minerals announced the start of drilling at the Kangasjärvi VMS project in central Finland. The up to 1000m diamond drilling program is designed to test two undrilled, high-priority conductors in the vicinity of the historic mine. Initial drilling will focus on the easier accessible southern anomaly, directly adjacent to the old working but cut off by a prominent fault (Maxwell plate indicated by the red line on the graphic below). The drilling is expected to be completed in 4-6 weeks.
