Drill cuttings were sent to an independent laboratory in Nevada for fire assay and the results have now been received (Table 1). Great Western is very pleased with these results which show a broad distribution of consistent gold grades at the drilled positions. \n \n \n Table\n 1\n . Results from auger drilling of tailings pads at the OMCO Mine. All holes were vertical into flat lying tailings material. Intercepts shown are true thicknesses. Gold values shown are length-weighted averages for all samples in tailings material from each hole.\n \n \n \n \n Hole\n \n \n ID\n \n \n \n \n From (ft)\n \n \n \n \n To\n \n \n (ft)\n \n \n \n \n Interval (ft)\n \n \n \n \n From (m)\n \n \n \n \n To\n \n \n (m)\n \n \n \n \n Interval\n \n \n (m)\n \n \n \n \n Avg.
