Highlights from the expanded 2019 exploration programs include the definition of a large new Sedex target called the Delta Horizon. The new target is located 5 km northwest of the B-9 Zone, where shallow Sedex style mineralization was discovered in 2018, including 12.33% Zn, 2.98% Pb, and 24.46g/t Ag (14.98% ZnEq) over 6.3m in hole IB18-009, and remains open for expansion.Amended AgreementTo date, under the terms of the Original Agreement the Company has made cash payments totaling $105,000, issued a total of 1,100,000 common shares to PSR and incurred exploration work commitments of approximately $1,050,000.
