Drilling in these areas is focused on verifying and expanding upon the known gold and silver mineralisation within the 350 square kilometre licence area that remains relatively unexplored.

Laboratory results of the samples cut and collected from the first five holes at the northern end of the Giant Vein are expected within the next two weeks.
Assays are expected to provide further new data for inclusion in a maiden JORC-compliant mineral resource.
Another batch of samples from the holes drilled at the Redbird and No 17 veins will be dispatched to the Read More – Source
