While the system has consistently delivered broad, lower-grade mineralization, this intercept suggests the presence of a higher-grade component - a characteristic we have been actively testing for. Additional drilling in this release continues to grow the mineralized extent of Lower Antino, and we will incorporate these results into our geological models to better define the geometry and continuity of mineralization as the program advances."","length":585,"tagName":"p"},{"type":"text","content":"Highlights","length":10,"tagName":"p"},{"type":"list","items":[{"val":[{"type":"text","content":"High-grade drill-confirmed intercept near surface at Lower Antino confirms high-grade component within the tonalite-hosted gold system:","length":135,"tagName":"p","attribs":{}},{"type":"list","items":[{"val":[{"type":"text","content":"6.0 m of 12.95 g/t Au from 55.0 m (LA060)","length":41,"tagName":"p","attribs":{}}]},{"val":[{"type":"text","content":"Intercept extends mineralization approximately 250 m west of the nearest previous drilling","length":90,"tagName":"p","attribs":{}}]}],"tagName":"ul","bulletedList":true,"length":131,"olType":false}]},{"val":[{"type":"text","content":"Continued systematic drilling expands the mineralized system with wide intercepts along strike:","length":95,"tagName":"p","attribs":{}},{"type":"list","items":[{"val":[{"type":"text","content":"Drilling to the east confirms continued growth of the mineralized system (LA055, LA056) (Figure 2)","length":98,"tagName":"p","attribs":{}}]},{"val":[{"type":"text","content":"200 m step-out to the south intersects intrusion-hosted mine...
