Vortex Energy Corp. announced the successful completion of approximately 12km of drill trail clearing and preparation of two 120 feet by 120 feet drilling pads by the Company at the Robinsons River Salt Project. The work was completed by On Grade Construction of Stephenville, Newfoundland and Labrador, a subcontractor hired under the supervision and project management of the Company?s primary consulting partner, RESPEC Consulting Inc. The priority from RESPEC has been to assist the mobilizing efforts with being on-site, guiding road clearing and earthworks for drilling pads, and float offloading of drilling cargo.

All equipment from Major Drilling has arrived on site and the Company expects to begin drilling later this week.
