Desert Sun Drilling Confirms Wide Area of Gold Mineralization at Morro do Vento.TORONTO Toronto (tərŏn`tō), city (1998 est pop. 2,400,000), provincial capital, S Ont., Canada, on Lake Ontario.

Morro do Vento is located about 1.5 km from the processing plant and existing mines, and approximately 9 km from the town of Jacobina. To date 80 holes totaling 13,700 m have been completed at Morro do Vento and results have been received for all of these holes. The target Intermediate reef package is consistently about 60-70m wide and extends along the full 2km strike length with extensive garimpos (free miners workings). Table 1 below summarizes new drilling results at Morro do Vento which are principally from holes in the central 900 metre metre In poetry, the rhythmic pattern of a poetic line. Various principles have been devised to organize poetic lines into rhythmic units.
