Mammoth Resources Corp. is pleased to announce that it has submitted its permit application to drill its Tenoriba precious metal property located in southwestern Chihuahua state, Mexico (click here for a detailed location map). The application is for permission to drill up to 20 drill holes under an “Informe Preventivo” or “Aviso de Inicio de Actividades de Proyectos de Exploracion Minera Directa” (NOM-120-ECOL-1997) and was submitted to the SEMARNAT (Secretariaria de Medio Ambiente y Recursos Naturales) office in Chihuahua, Mexico.
