Plone and Drupal: Different Approaches, Different Results

In regards to the additional products, we have a skin installed and we have a product that we had custom developed for us that connects to a PostgreSQL database. We've looked at slow PostgreSQL queries causing problems and have not been able to find an issue. We've also tested for the case where the PostgreSQL server is down and have not been able to create an issue. We therefor...

Oromin Explorations Ltd.: Ongoing 75,000 Metre Drill Program Demonstrates Excellent Continuity and Size Expansion at Golouma West, South and Masato Gold Deposits

New Discoveries Add Potential

By: Marketwire .

Jul. 11, 2007 11:13 PM

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 07/11/07 -- Oromin Explorations Ltd. ("Oromin") (TSX VENTURE: OLE)(OTCBB: OLEPF) -

Highlights

- Golouma West gold deposit extended to a minimum of 1,000 metres at surface with significant new intersections including:

- 15 metres of 8.52 g/t gold in RC-92

- 40 metres of 3.15 g/t gold in RC-106

- 32 metres of 6.43 g/t gold in RC-114

- New high-grade trenching and drillng results have extended Golouma South mineralization an additional 250 metres to its current minimum 650 metre strike length.

- Masato Deposit and Masato North target extended by drilling with significant new intersections including:

- 22 metres of 2.44 g/t gold in DH-95

- 14 metres of 2.90 g/t gold in DH-112

Oromin Explorations Ltd. ("Oromin") is pleased to provide an exploration up-date at the Sabodala Property in Senegal.

In addition to stepout and infill drilling results from the Golouma West, Golouma South, Masato and Masato North deposit areas, additional encouraging trenching results have been received from the Masato North target. New discoveries have also been confirmed by trenching at the Sekoto and Kinemba Targets, as well as at Golouma South Extension where favourable trench results have extended mineralization an additional 250 metres south beyond previous drilling. Please refer to Oromin's May 4, 2007 press release which discusses average grades and lengths of the Golouma West, South and Masato deposits.

Oromin's 2007 exploration program is focused on resource delineation of Sabodala's numerous gold zones and deposits with more than 75,000 metres in 450 holes planned. The results from its ongoing property-wide exploration program continue to support Oromin's model of multiple gold deposits being located within the Sabodala Property. Please see attached map for locations.

GOLOUMA WEST GOLD DEPOSIT

This deposit has been traced over 1,000 metres on surface and to 300 metres at depth and remains open in all directions. Oromin is currently drilling the deposit at 40 metre centres using an RC drill rig to a 200 to 250 metre depth followed by deeper drilling with diamond core rigs. Newly drilled mineralized intersections are listed in the attached schedule; the most significant of which are:

- 23 metres of 4.15 g/t gold in RC-76

- 6 metres of 10.02 g/t gold in RC-84

- 15 metres of 8.52 g/t gold in RC-92

- 40 metres of 3.15 g/t gold in RC-106

- 32 metres of 6.43 g/t gold in RC-114(i)

(i) Hole RC-114 is the westernmost hole drilled at Golouma for which results are available. However, additional drilling to the west of RC-114, for which results are pending, has also encountered Golouma West style mineralization.

GOLOUMA NORTHWEST TARGET

Three core holes were completed at the Golouma Northwest Target during the up-date period. Ongoing interpretations indicate that the Golouma West Gold Deposit and the Golouma Northwest target appear to be merging in an area west of drill sections 6+00 and 6+40 west. Drilling results from Golouma Northwest are listed in the attached schedule, and include 11 metres of 6.04 g/t gold in DH-118.

GOLOUMA SOUTH GOLD DEPOSIT EXTENSION

A series of excavator trenches extending for 250 metres southward beyond previous drilling in this area (3.36 g/t gold over 4 metres in DH-87) successfully encountered the extension of Golouma South mineralization. TRX-183 located 75 metres south of DH-87 encountered two mineralized intervals of 8.90 g/t gold over 2 metres and 25.65 g/t gold over 8 metres (including 99.83 g/t gold over 2 metres). TRX-187, located 250 metres south of DH-87, intersected an "on trend" mineralized zone grading 35.84 g/t gold over 2 metres. Thus far, Oromin has completed one core hole (DH-122) and one reverse circulation hole (RC-110) at the Golouma South extension. Drilling results from Golouma South are listed in the attached schedule, and include 4 meters of 10.24 g/t gold in DH-122.

MASATO GOLD DEPOSIT

This deposit is coincident with a large and strong gold-in-soil geochemical anomaly 1.8 kilometres in length by up to 1.2 kilometres in width. It is connected disjointedly with the Masato North target and is located 1.2 kilometres due east of the 1.9 million ounce Sabodala Gold deposit owned by Mineral Deposits Limited ("MDL") that is being readied for production (see MDL May 4, 2007 news release). This large geochemical anomaly is also coincident with 3 parallel I.P. chargeability anomalies of which only the westernmost has been drilled to date.

Newly drilled mineralized intersections are listed in the attached schedule; the most significant of which are:

- 16 metres of 2.15 g/t gold in DH-106

- 13 metres of 2.35 g/t gold in DH-109

- 14 metres of 2.90 g/t gold in DH-112

- 15 metres of 2.64 g/t gold in DH-116

MASATO NORTH TARGET

Masato North is presently defined as a strong gold-in-soil geochemical anomaly measuring a minimum of 800 metres in length. It is connected disjointedly with the Masato deposit; however, interpretations suggest that these may merge as one. Recent trenching results from Masato North include: 1.15 g/t gold over 8 metres in TRX-167, 2.94 g/t gold over 20 metres in TRX-168, 2.53 g/t gold over 36 metres in TRX-169 and 2.35 g/t gold over 14 metres in TRX-172.

Newly drilled mineralized intersections are listed in the attached schedule; the most significant of which are:

- 22 metres of 2.44 g/t gold in DH-95

- 10 metres of 2.18 g/t gold in DH-96

- 5 metres of 3.26 g/t gold in DH-105

REGIONAL EXPLORATION DISCOVERIES

In addition to the extensive reverse circulation and core drilling programs, regional exploration is also underway at a variety of favourable target areas throughout the Sabodala Property. Highlights from this regional exploration program include:

- 3 metres of 10.13 g/t gold from the initial drilling completed at the Kobokoto target, (DH-108).

- 6 metres of 5.95 g/t gold from TRX-154 at the Sekoto target.

- 8 metres of 1.11 g/t gold from a hand trench at the Kinemba target.

- Initial excavator trenching at the Dendifa West target has exposed favourable veining, alteration and structure over good widths. Results are pending.

Fieldwork was carried out under the supervision of Gerald McArthur P. Geol., a "qualified person" for the purposes of National Instrument 43-101, who has also verified the data disclosed in this news release. TSL Laboratories in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan carried out all assaying.
