The drilling has also confirmed both the lateral and\nvertically extensive nature of the low-grade gold-silver\nmineralization around these high-grade zones. The drilling confirms\nthe high-grade mineralization that was observed in reverse circulation\n(\n \n \n “\n \n \n RC\n \n \n ”)\n \n \n drill holes\nES-239 and ES-243 and provided high quality rock samples for further\nanalysis.\n \n \n \n \n Peter Gianulis, CEO of Allegiant\nGold\n \n \n , commented:\n \n \n “The\ninitial results of our diamond core drill program continue to show\nmineralization at Eastside, which is still open to the South and East,\nand at depth.  The DDH program has also given us more confidence in\nthe system and is vitally important for the follow-up drill programs\nwe have planned.
