Golden Tag Resources Ltd. is pleased to announce that a 5,000 metre program of diamond drilling with an estimated budget of $1.8 million including related expenditures, is planned to commence in May, 2012 on the San Diego Property in Durango State, Mexico. The recently revised joint venture agreement with partner Golden Minerals Company (see press release:March 28)(see press release:2012), gives Golden Tag the right to increase its interest in the joint venture from 50% to 60% by funding the next US$3 million of exploration expenditures and to assume the role as designated operator of the JV. While the joint venture was scheduled to issue an updated NI 43-101 resource report in April, 2012, this will now be delayed, as recent developments provide Golden Tag an opportunity to focus immediately on Resource growth at San Diego. The objective of the 2012 drilling program is to further delineate and potentially extend, several new discoveries which were the result of drilling in 2011 (see press releases:October 27)(see press releases:2011)(see press releases:November 15)(see press releases:2011)(see press releases:December 12)(see press releases:2011)(see press releases:January 31)(see press releases:2012).
