The auger drilling program was completed to prioritize ground geophysical VLF-EM targets prior to diamond drill testing. Previous soil geochemical sampling over large areas of the property has been proven ineffective given generally widespread +4.0 metre thick cover. The auger holes were drilled on 12.5 metre centers and 50.0 metre line spacing across the four strongest VLF-EM anomalies, A1 thru A4, all located in the Target 1 area which includes the 513 Zone. The results from 188 of 230 auger drill holes completed have been received. Of the 412 samples assayed, 21 assayed greater than 100 ppb gold with a maximum of 1,780 ppb.
Significantly, all 21 of the anomalous gold samples occur in a distinct linear trend from the 513 Zone in the north, 600 metres southerly to the center of the A3 target area. The southern most 200 metres of this trend is highly anomalous and will be targeted with diamond drilling on completion of additional financing. No significant gold anomalies were outlined on the A2 target.
