Historic data indicates this pattern continues in the subsurface as well.  Click this link to view a map of the sampling.  \nDuring the most recent round of sampling, 14 of 49 samples (43 channel, 5 grab, 1 panel), ranging in lengths of 0.50 and 2.0 meters returned silver values between 30 gpt to 187 gpt and 21 samples returned silver grades greater than 10 gpt.  To date, sampling on surface veins by the Company has returned widths of 0.5 to 6 meters and carried grades of up to 692 gpt silver.  See previous exploration results at Columba, reported November 19, 2018 and January 8, 2019 (click links to view new releases).  Sampling highlights include:  \n692 gpt silver over 0.8 meters; 426 gpt silver over 0.7 meters; 360 gpt silver over 1.80 meters; 330 gpt silver over 2.0 meters; 275 gpt silver over 3.5 meters; 215 gpt silver over 3.0 meters; and 182 gpt silver over 6.6 meters Kootenay is currently in the process of obtaining permits to carr...
