Geology crews have returned to the property to continue the exercise of collecting chip samples at newly exposed outcrop and the scanning of individual chip samples on site with a pXRF device. Samples of non-mineralized and mineralized gabbro - pyroxenite will also be collected and submitted for multi-element assay, as well as for whole rock geochemistry analysis. The program is anticipated to last approximately one week.

It was very evident that outcrop exposure has increased immensely as a result of the wildfire. The wildfire has exposed more of the favourable gabbro unit in areas previously prospected and, importantly, in areas where thick forest and overburden cover made prospecting very difficult. Our chip sampling pXRF methodology has been very successful in identifying more of the favourable gabbro - pyroxenite units (host to the historic Gochager Lake deposit) along strike to the east-northeast. We are confident this program will add more definition to the expanded footprint and expand the favourable gabbro - pyroxenite units further along strike in what is developing into a gabbro - pyroxenite corridor that is now a minimum of 1.4km in strike."","length":903,"tagName":"p"},{"type":"text","content":"The Company has begun to receive i...
