Avrupa Minerals Reports On Covas Tungsten Project, NW Portugal（Parrt1）

Avrupa Minerals Ltd.  is pleased to report on further progress at the Covas Tungsten Joint Venture exploration program in NW Portugal. The tungsten project is operated by Avrupa, and funded by Blackheath Resources Inc. ("Blackheath"), under a previously-announced earn-in agreement (see AVU news release, dated May 18, 2011).

Phase 1 of the exploration program at Covas is now complete, with all outstanding results in hand. The program successfully confirmed and tested known skarn-related mineral occurrences and extensions, as well as new targets. Work in Phase 1 included re-interpretation of historic magnetic data, completion of a gravity survey in the Covas Dome area, as well as geological mapping, rock sampling, and a total of 1,606 meters of core drilling in 15 completed drill holes in five separate target areas. Review of all data and results is underway in preparation for the next phase of work, which will commence later this April and will include further core drilling later this year.
