The objective is to further demonstrate the\ncontinuity and extent of both high grade and stockwork gold targets on\nthe property.\n \n \n \n \n The drilling contract provides for a minimum of 3,000\nmetres (10,000 feet) of core drilling 12 hours/day, on a 20-day on,\n10-day off schedule. This press release deals with the first 6 holes\nof the program.\n \n \n \n \n North Perry – Shark Fin Target\nArea\n \n \n \n \n The map below is an overview of the property with the\nNorth Perry – Shark Fin Target shown. This is a priority target as\nprevious drilling has demonstrated the presence of both a highgrade\nvein and stockwork mineralization. This drilling will demonstrate\ncontinuity to depth and strike continuity to the “Shark Fin” – a\nprominent cliff of quartz breccia mineralization.\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Click Image To View Full Size\n \n \n \n \n Drilling will commence at the north end of the Perry\npatented claim where drill holes PRC21-81 thru PRC21-83 intersected\nhigh grades in a hanging wall vein up to 3.3 metres thick at 16.9\ngrams per tonne (“gpt”) gold and 51.15 gpt silver.
