With the excavator now remobilized to site, the program is envisaged to include a total of approximately 12 additional trenches, adding to the four trenches excavated during the recently completed and published Phase I drill program. The inaugural drill program demonstrated robust gold grades including the following highlights:114.00 meters of 0.95 g/t Gold from 4.00-118.00 meters in RC hole A-RC-02 including:70.00 meters of 1.27 g/t Gold (22.00-92.00 meters)And 28.00 meters of 1.63 g/t Gold (46.00-74.00 meters)And 12.00 meters of 2.45 g/t Gold (62.00-74.00 meters)58.00 meters of 0.74 g/t Gold from 68-126 meters in RC hole S-RC-01 including:54.00 meters of 0.78 g/t Gold (72.00-126.00 meters)And 30.00 meters of 1.03 g/t Gold (72.00-102.00 meters)And 12.00 meters of 0.89 g/t Gold (114.00-126.00 meters)85.00 meters of 0.42 g/t Gold from 76.00-161.00 meters in RC hole S-RC-02 including:34.00 meters of 0.96 g/t Gold (76.00-110.00 meters)And 14.00 meters of 1.81 g/t Gold (88.00-102.00 meters)For a complete list of drill intercepts from the inaugural drill program, see the Company's press release dated May 30th, 2024. Once laboratory results have been received, the Phase II drill program design will be finalized, whereby the preliminary quotation process for drilling has commenced based upon a forecast range of meters to drill.
