APACHE JUNCTION, Ariz., Dec. 13, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Gryphon Resources Inc. ('Gryphon' or the 'Company') (OTC Bulletin Board:GRYO.ob - News) reported that the Company has received approvals from the Arizona State Land Department for all 11 permit applications for exploration activities at its lithium project in south-eastern Arizona.
President and CEO Alan Muller commented, "We're very pleased to report permit approvals which allow us to begin exploration. We're now preparing a working plan to launch exploration in the very near future. The first part of this includes review of initial bids for geo-technical services and equipment. Once this process is complete, we expect that the first stage of exploration will include both gravity and electro-magnetic resistivity surveys."
Project Manager Nick Barr also commented, "We've conducted several site inspections and have identified some promising areas where sampling could begin. Our challenge now is to determine which exploration methods will best suit the geology and topography of the properties. We have some fractionalization of the areas under permit and lithium exploration is a developing science, so further analysis will be needed to determine where, and how, our exploration resources can best be deployed. We're expecting to complete this first stage of planning within the next couple of weeks and move forward quickly from there."
The 11 permits which make up Gryphon's L.G. Property are held on a 640 acre parcel of property in south-eastern Arizona. This property may have the potential for discovery of large volumes of brine containing potentially economic concentrations of lithium. Comparative activity in the region is evidenced by Chemetall Foote Clayton Valley facility in Nevada which is designed to produce lithium materials for advanced transportation batteries.
Gryphon also holds title to the 'Cruce Property' which consists of exploration rights to a 560 acre area located approximately 40 miles north of Tucson, Arizona. The Company believes the Cruce Property may have gold and copper-porphyry potential as indicated by the existence of the San Manuel-Kalamazoo copper deposit approximately 13 miles east; Asarco's huge Ray Complex some 28 miles north and Asarco's Silver Bell Mine about 37 miles west. The extensive Pima District also begins less than 50 miles south. Gryphon's exploration team has prior experience with the Cruce Property and is now determining how to undertake exploration.
