(TSXV: NPR) (the "Company" or "North Peak") announces that drilling is underway at its Prospect Mountain North area, with the first hole to be drilled now completed. The roughly 10,000 foot r/c drill campaign is targeting former near surface, high grade gold mines in the northern area of the Prospect Mountain Property (the "Property") in Eureka, Nevada. Drilling of some 20 holes (see Figure 1) will take place from the Wabash/Williams mine area, Industry Tunnel, Duke and Delaware Madrid sites, with holes ranging in depth from 300 to 700 feet. "Required groundwork and drill mobilization allowed drilling at Industry Tunnel to start Friday with excellent productivity continuing over the weekend," Brian Hinchcliffe, Chairman & CEO commented. "The last comprehensive drilling program in 1999 of some 96 holes with 26,000 feet of vertical drilling took place in the Wabash area where this program seeks to target gold mineralization and test a revised interpretation for the area."
