CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Jun 16, 2015) - Altitude Resources Inc. ("ALI" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:ALI) is pleased to announce that it has initiated a drill permit application with the Alberta Energy Regulator for a drill program at the Palisades Coal Project located in west-central Alberta, Canada. The drill permit, which is expected to be approved in early Q3-2015, will be valid for two years. The budget of CDN $1.2 million for the program was approved in April by Altitude and its joint venture partner, JOGMEC. The drill targets in the proposed program were identified in the field assessment program started in May 2015 by Dahrouge Geological Consulting Ltd. ("Dahrouge") of Edmonton, Alberta. Dahrouge has also been contracted to oversee the proposed 2015 drill program. It is expected that the program will start shortly after the receipt of formal approval in August/September 2015.
