(TSXV: BHS) (the \"Company\" or \"Bayhorse\") has commenced geological operations at its precious- metals -rich, Brandywine, Volcanogenic Massive Sulfide Project, British Columbia, Canada.The Company has confirmed historic gold and silver drill hole locations and located the historic drill core. The team has identified the width and strike of the partially mined Tedi zone. The mineralized zone is exposed across a 100-foot wide zone , running 400 feet along strike.The previously mined Quartz and Silver Tunnels have been located. From the Quartz Tunnel elevation at 607 m (1,991 ft) through the Dave's Pond mineralized zone, and up to the Tedi pit at 943 m (3,090 ft) suggest a minimum vertical extent of 330 m (1,100 ft). The known reported strike length of 1.8 km (5,900 ft) between the Quartz Tunnel and the Tedi pit is derived from past exploration, mineralization presence and former mining activity. Reported production from the Tedi pit (Minfile) was 10,385 tonnes with recoveries of 23,054 oz/silver, 11,045 oz/gold, 363,386 lbs of lead, 352,424 lbs of zinc and 26,534 lbs of copper.(Van Silver Mines 1977).A later 4.5 meter sample from the North Pit at Tedi reportedly graded 1.6 g/t gold, 150 g/t silver, 1.71% copper, 10.95% lead and 14.08% zinc.A three- hole 2010 drill program conducted by Auramex at Daves Pond to confirm the high gold grades reported by La Rock mining in 1995, the highest gold value reported was in the hole BRW-7 that assayed 1.63 g/t Au over 1.52m. However, they reported that a 30 cm long interval containing visible gold (VG) was excluded from the sample and not assayed. . (Walus, Dunn 2010) The description of the visible gold section suggests the presence of a nugget effect.Hole BRW-5 assayed 6.2 g/t Au over 1.5 m, and BRW-6 assayed 3.3 g/t Au over 1.5 m. A link is provided here to the entire resampling report including all assay data and intervals. Bayhorse CEO Graeme O'Neill comments: \"The Brandywine Project brings us a significant, well advanced, drill ready, gold and silver project to Bayhorse to complement our high grade Bayhorse Silver Mine.
