Saturn Minerals Inc. says that the Company's technical team and advisors tested the ground conditions again on December 11 and 13 for drilling the Bannock Creek 9A-5 exploration oil well.

All parties determined that ground conditions were not yet ideal for moving heavy equipment to the well site. It is anticipated that the 9A-5 location will require at least an additional week of sub -10 degree Celsius weather to adequately freeze the ground for safe movement of heavy equipment to the well site.
