(firmenpresse) - LAS VEGAS, NEVADA -- (Marketwire) -- 04/19/12 -- Tuffnell Ltd. (OTCCB: TUFF), today announced successful results from its phase 3 drilling program completed late last year which consisted of 16 east-west angle holes across a north-south trending geophysical target. The drilling program consisted of 5,395 feet of reverse circulation (RC) angled drilling and one deeper vertical hole to test an interpreted intrusive associated with the anomaly.
The highlights of the drilling include:
"We are very pleased with current results," said Bob Coale, Tuffnell President. "Several of the drill holes returned high-grade intercepts including: 0.377 oz/ton gold over 10 feet, 0.121 oz/ton gold over 15 feet, 0.088 oz/ton gold over 20 feet, and 0.068 oz/ton gold over 100ft."

LITTLE BUTTE 2011 RC DRILLING SUMMARY RESULTS
Tuffnell's district-wide study of the Little Butte project area is now being finalized as the company evaluates additional potential drilling targets. The company has obtained sample pulps from historic drilling of nearly 50 holes scattered throughout the project and has conducted a 34-element analysis of these pulps. Previously only analyzed for gold, the copper content as well as other element analyses will be used to evaluate elemental zonation and to determine shallow targets similar to those currently being tested. The company is currently evaluating the specifics of a program to complete another phase of drilling, in order to more fully establish the size and value of its discovery.
