Early results at the Niish structure in drill holes LME20-031which intercepted\n \n 70.65 m\n \n of 3.90 g/t Au, 6.46 g/t Ag, 0.25 % Cu, 0.40 % Zn from 325 -\n \n 423.25 m\n \n ; and LME20-030 which intercepted\n \n 18.50 m\n \n of 0.18 g/t Au, 14.64 g/t Ag, 0.21% Cu and 3.69% Zn from 141.50\n \n -160.00 m\n \n , showed the encouraging potential of this mineralized structure.\n \n \n The Niish and the Behzik shear zones are part of a set of third order parallel structures, delineating the southern and northern contact of an interpreted (from drilling and geophysics) dioritic intrusive plug. In addition to these two (2) parallel structures, a number of EW and NS mineralized subsidiary structures and veins have been identified through past surface exploration and drilling (See\n \n Figure 1\n \n ).  Both the Niish and Behzik structures are interpreted as the major fluid conduits bounded by the diorite contact and S2 foliation. This dilatational zone and the presence competent Fe-rich rocks represent...
