Initial review of drill holes LS10-003 through LS10-008 show consistent mineralized intercepts but we will have more detailed information once we have received assay results for those holes.

Results from hole LS10-001 show significant intercepts beginning at 16.6 meters (54 feet) with a grade of 14.4 gpt (0.42 opt) gold, 72.7 gpt (2.1 opt) silver and 1.74% copper. Drill hole LS 10-001 intercepted a total of 10.7 meters (see the Table below for the mineralized intercepts) grading 1.52 gpt (0.044 opt) gold, 36.1 gpt (1.05 opt) silver and 0 .744% copper.

Mr. Kugler said, "We have completed 4,000 meters of the planned 2010 10,000 meter drilling program. With continued success of the drilling we plan to extend the drilling program into 2011 with another 10,000 meters."
The drilling company is maintaining a drilling rate of 75 meters per day while USPR has expanded its campaign to include the construction of new roads and drilling pads, maintenance of existing roads, and construction of new drill sites. USPR is also continuing surface exploration. Dave Burney, President and Chief Geologist of USPR states that the Company "has identified and is investigating additional significant exposed oxidized quartz sulfide veins. Some of these veins contain solid runs of high grade mineralization. This find is consistent with our belief that the property has excellent potential." Mr. Burney also stated that the Company is in the process of completing its laboratory, which will enable it to complete on-site assay work on exploration samples and move forward on metallurgical testing in the core lab. Our independent assayer, ALS Chemex, will continue to assay our core samples.
