11:00 AEST Jan 18, 2012 - Sydney, Australia (ABN Newswire) - Global Metals Exploration NL (ASX:GXN) would like to advise the market that although a Rotary Air Blast ('RAB') rig mobilised at Jutson Rocks last Thursday following a Christmas break, the rig has had to be stood down due to the onset of Cyclone Heidi in the area. Over 75-80mm of rain has fallen, which after a wet summer and wet winter, has rendered access to local roads and drill sites impassable.

Drilling is expected to re-commence no later than mid-February.
