Tinka Resources Limited ("Tinka and/or the "Company") trades in Canada on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol “TK”, Frankfurt – “TLD” (WKN AOB 884) and is quoted in the USA on the Pinksheets under the symbol “TKRFF”.Tinka's main project in Peru is the Colquipucro silver-lead-zinc project consisting of 46 contiguous mineral tenements covering an area of 10,234.85 hectares and located in the Department of Cerro de Pasco. The Company completed a 15-hole, 2,670m, Phase 1 diamond drill program in November 2007. All but one hole intercepted silver mineralization above cut-off grade and results included 60m grading 135 g/t silver, 44m grading 95 g/t silver from surface, 66m grading 83 g/t silver from surface, 10m grading 625 g/t silver, 8m grading 551 g/t silver, and 12m grading 4.4% zinc which is open at depth. The Company has now completed soil sampling, trenching, sampling of underground workings, IP and drilling which has identified a zone of mineralization that extends across an east-west strike of about 200m, a width of up to 500m north-south and to a depth ranging from 100m to 200m.A recently completed independent NI43-101 report determined an inferred silver resource of 20.3 million ounces with an immediate potential contiguous target for up to a further 2 million tonnes at similar silver grades. See April 24, 2008 News Release for details of the report or click on NI43-101 to view a complete copy of this report.Initial preliminary metallurgical test work has provided positive results including the following highlights: silver recovery ranged from 90 to 97% with cyanide consumptions of 3.5 to 8.0 kg/t after leaching for 72 hours, silver leaching kinetics were extremely fast for both composites, and although reagent consumption was moderate to high the leaching time was extremely rapid, suggesting further test work may allow cyanide consumption to be reduced with only a small loss in recoverable silver.

Tournigan(TM) is a uranium exploration and development company with a portfolio of highly prospective properties in Europe. The company's flagship Kuriskova property is a high-grade uranium deposit in Eastern Slovakia. In addition to the NI 43-101 compliant resource already delineated at Kuriskova, there is significant exploration upside in the surrounding licences, also controlled by Tournigan. The current resource at Kuriskova is 20.5 million pounds U3O8 indicated contained in 1.6 million tonnes at 0.571% U3O8 and 17.5 million pounds U3O8 inferred contained in 3.5 million tonnes at 0.228% U3O8; cut-off of 0.05%U. Tournigan's uranium licences include the Novoveska Huta uranium deposit - where the company is re-evaluating the geologic model of the deposit to determine whether there is potential to improve the grade from that of the historic resource - as well as numerous prospective exploration targets. In June of 2009, Tournigan announced the results of a positive Preliminary Assessment of the Kuriskova uranium deposit prepared by an independent consultant. The study revealed that the Kuriskova project has robust economic potential and could be developed using conventional mining and processing methods. It estimated that project payback would be within approximately one-third of the projected mine life and production costs would be substantially below projected long-term sales prices. More details of the Preliminary Assessment are disclosed in the news release dated July 27, 2009Slovakia, a member of the European Union since 2004, is economically and politically stable and has excellent infrastructure. The country has four operating nuclear reactors producing approximately 50% of its current energy needs. In September of 2008, Slovakian Prime Minister, Robert Fico signed nuclear cooperation agreements with both the French and the Russian governments for the construction of additional nuclear energy capacity.In October 2008, The Strategy of Energy Security of the Slovak Republic, a strategic document that will set the energy direction of the country until 2030, was approved by the Slovak government. It calls for the completion of two new nuclear reactors by 2013 and discusses the benefits of sourcing uranium domestically.
