TRANSITION

Hole FR-DD-23-UG-193, drilled from an underground platform within the second level of the vein, intersected 19.8 grams per tonne gold and 11.3 g/t silver over 1.7 metres targeting the Kearney B-lens, a parallel vein.

“This is the most northerly intersection in the latest underground drill programme, and provides important information on the course and continuity of mineralisation outside the main Kearney vein,” said the Canadian company.

Chief executive officer Mario Stifano added: “We’re pleased with the outcome of this final underground hole at the main Kearney vein as we transition our drill programme from underground to surface to target the other main Joshua vein and potentially add to the number of dilation zones previously delineated from historical drilling.”
