HVC is Canada's largest copper producer and currently mining\nmaterial with an average grade of around 0.22% copper.\n\n\n \nOn the Rateria property, Happy Creek has discovered Zone 1 and Zone 2\nlocated approximately 6.5 kilometres south-southeast of Teck's\nHighmont mine. Previously announced drill results from within Zone 1\ninclude R10-12 with120.0 metres of 0.38% copper (starting at surface),\nR11-1 with 95.0 metres of 0.67% copper, R11-8 with 250.0 metres of\n0.25% copper and R11-11 with 102.5 metres of 0.43% copper and 0.11 g/t\nrhenium. Zone 1 is defined over one kilometre in length and remains\nopen in extent. Zone 2 is located approximately 2.0 kilometres to the\nnortheast of Zone 1. Previously released drill results from Zone 2\ninclude 126.0 metres grading 0.46% copper, 0.10 g/t gold, 113.0 metres\nof 0.33% copper, 38.2 metres of 0.11% copper, 0.029% molybdenum and\n2.14 g/t rhenium, and 6.4 metres of 1.65% copper, 0.017% molybdenum,\n9.4 g/t silver and 5.2 g/t rhenium.\n\n\n \nNew results from Zone 2 are from drill hole R11-35 with 5.0 metres\ncontaining 1.09% copper, 0.19 g/t (grams per tonne) gold, 4.5 g/t\nsilver and 0.06 g/t rhenium, starting from 252.5 metres that is\nlocated approximately 200 metres from any previous drilling. Moderate\npotassic and pervasive sericite alteration along with copper and\nlocally elevated molybdenum, gold, silver and rhenium values occur\nfrom surface to the end of the hole at 358.75 metres and remain open\nin extent. The first 300.5 metres of core average 0.05% copper, and\nthe final 36.3 metres averages 0.06% copper, 0.10 g/t rhenium, and\nmineralization remains open in extent.
