The completion of the soil sampling program represents an important step in advancing the project with the aim of generating new targets in the prospective Rogerson Lake Structural Corridor. We look forward to seeing the assay results and refining targets for more detailed exploration and follow up sampling.\"Carter Lake Soil SamplingCanterra has collected 1,282 soil samples at the Carter Lake Block as part of the summer 2022 exploration program. The Carter Lake Block, which was staked in 2021 based on recognition of a potential splay in the prospective Rogerson Lake Structural Corridor, is largely unexplored beyond a limited reconnaissance soil sampling program with 500 metre spacing completed in 2021 (news release dated December 21, 2021). This sampling showed a broad soil anomaly with results ranging from 10 to 28 parts per billion gold (ppb Au). Assay results from the recently completed program are expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2022, with the resulting data to be used in conjunction with airborne magnetic survey data to define further targets for exploration. Figure 1 - Location of the Carter Lake Block in relation to Wilding, and the adjacent Noel Paul claims.  To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8054/131471_f93b2b90b422b902_002bfull.jpg Figure 2 - Soil samples collected at the Carter Lake Block, with previous reconna...
