Intermin Resources Ltd. said April 5 that its joint venture partner Evolution Mining Ltd. started a 3,500-meter aircore drilling program of up to 67 holes at the Binduli gold project in Western Australia.

The program aims to confirm historical mineralization and explore for extensions and will take up to three weeks to complete, with results expected by June.

Evolution Mining, through unit La Mancha Resources Australia Pty. Ltd., holds an option to earn up to 70% of the project by spending A$4.6 million over five years.
