TT) averaging 18.7g/t Au, 351g/t Ag, 0.2% Cu, 0.8% Pb and 0.1% Zn (24.0g/t AuEq or 1,802g/t AgEq) within a 4.0 metre interval (3.1 metres Est. TT) averaging 6.2g/t Au, 138g/t Ag, 0.1% Cu, 0.2% Pb and 0.7% Zn (8.7g/t AuEq or 650g/t AgEq) from drill hole SQ21-024; a 1.4 metre interval (1.1 metre est. TT) averaging 4.3g/t Au, 449g/t Ag, 0.4% Cu, 0.4% Pb and 1.5% Zn (12.4g/t AuEq or 926g/t AgEq) from drill hole SQ21-024; and a 1.5 metre interval (1.2 metre est. TT) averaging 4.9g/t Au, 55g/t Ag, 0.2% Cu and 0.1% Zn (6.0g/t AuEq or 448g/t AgEq) from drill hole SQ21-025. These are Equity's first two holes into the NG-3 vein, which historically has been only partially tested by widely spaced drill holes. This new drilling establishes continuity between several historical drill intercepts in the NG-3 Vein and associated hangingwall and footwall structures, which can now be traced down-dip for up to 250 metres. Mineralization remains open laterally to the southeast for 700 metres where it projects toward several historical intercepts within the Itsit Porphyry target area. A small portion of the NG-3 vein was included in the 2019 NI43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate, leaving an approximate 700 metre x 450 metre target area available for additional drill testing and resource expansion.Multiple narrow, high-grade intercepts were also returned from step-out drilling on the No. 3 Vein system in drill holes SQ21-026, -027 and -028 including:a 2.3 metre interval (1.6 metre est. TT) averaging 2.4g/t Au, 151g/t Ag, 0.2% Cu, 0.8% Pb and 2.7% Zn (6.3g/t AuEq or 475g/t AgEq) from drill hole SQ21-028; a 0.3 metre interval (0.2 metre est. TT) averaging 6.7g/t Au, 308g/t Ag, 0.5% Cu, 1.4% Pb and 3.6% Zn (13.9g/t AuEq or 1,042g/t AgEq) from drill hole SQ21-026; anda 1.5 metre interval (1.2 metre est. TT) averaging 2.4g/t Au, 7...
