Vendetta Mining Corp. announced that drilling has commenced at the Companies 100% owned Pegmont Lead-Zinc project in Queensland, Australia. This portion of the work program, Phase 1, will focus on three areas; Extending the high-grade underground portion of Pegmont Zone 3, centred around a Z fold where metals have accumulated into the upper- and lower-fold hinge.

Eleven holes are planned for a total of 3,100 metres. The first hole has been completed; intersecting lead-zinc mineralisation as anticipated. The program is following up on a diamond core hole drilled for the PEA geotechnical engineering study which intersected high grade mineralisation: PVRD154 15.92 m @ 9.07% Pb, 3.04 % Zn.

At the high grade Killer Bore Zinc prospect located 5km s from Pegmont, optioned from Sandfire Resources for 100%, the Company is planning a ten-hole, 2,300 metres program designed to scope out an initial volume centred around three historic drill intersections in two separate locations:: AND041: 3 m @ 15.44% Zn and 0.25% Cu ANP418: 4 m @ 8.26% Zn and 0.51% Cu and separately diamond hole DDH01KB001: 4 m @ 10% Zn and 0.2% Pb. The Company is awaiting heritage site clearance for these ten drill pads. In the shallow portions of the main Pegmont open pit, a total of 40 holes are planned for 2,400 metres, PQ core size.

Reverse circulation (RC) holes being followed up include: PMR216: 5 m @ 7.47% Pb, 3.92% Zn; PMR081: 14 m @ 5.40% Pb, 4.1% Zn; PMR118: 10 m @ 9.16% Pb, 4.56% Zn; PGR017: 9.15 m @ 7.56% Pb, 3.39% Zn.
