Western Potash to Drill Five Exploration Wells in Manitoba
Vancouver based Western Potash hires Ensign Drilling for an initial five hole exploration in a 555 kilometer Manitoba tract from south of Virden to Russell including Miniota and St Lazare. Costigan says a million dollars per hole plus mobilization, with potential follow up if results justify larger investment and a 43101 resource evaluation by a third party. The project promises short term local economic boost to Russell and Virden communities.
