Canadian Arrow Mines Limited has announced it has begun diamond drilling the first of its high priority Turtlepond area nickel copper projects located 40 kilometers south of Dryden in northwestern Ontario.

Over twelve first pass holes are planned totaling 2,500 meters of drilling over six priority targets. The Turtlepond Lake Group consists of three previously under explored historic nickel copper occurrences, coincident with recently surveyed electromagnetic conductor magnetic anomalies, and three other newly discovered geophysical targets, North Glatz, Night Danger and Double E. All targets are clustered within 1.5 kilometers of each other and occur within a few kilometers either side of highway 502.

The Glatz Property is the first of these targets to be drilled and will consist of four holes for an approximate total of 800 meters of NQ core. Mechanical trenching and ground geophysical surveys on the Glatz showing have delineated two parallel zones of mineralization which extend for 900 meters and 700 meters in length respectively. Widespread disseminated and blebby nickel copper iron sulphide mineralization has been exposed and channel sampled along both trends. Both anomalies are coincident with airborne geophysical anomalies and have not yet been drill tested.

An 800 meters long VTEM anomaly is associated with the Glatz showing and eleven conductive targets have been identified. In 2007 Arrow investigated a series of historical trenches along this geophysical trend with grab sample assay results ranging between trace to 1.28% Ni and trace to 4.56% Cu.
