The following release aims at delivering an update on the drilling and mapping work conducted thus far in 2022.\n \n \n \n Overview of the 2022 Exploration Program Activities on Ishkoday\n \n \n \n \n 2022 Drill Program\n \n \n \n LAURION commenced a diamond drilling program in\n \n January 2022\n \n , completing\n \n 14,211.5 m\n \n in 46 drill holes. The last drill hole was completed on\n \n July 4, 2022\n \n . The drill program was designed to test the potential of the undrilled continuity of the mineralization between the A-Zone, McLeod and CRK areas. The drilling intersected stacked and steeply dipping volcanogenic polymetallic mineralized zones and orogenic gold veins from the A-Zone to the McLeod Zone, situated within a 1.5 km northeastern segment of the 6 km-long Ishkoday mineralized trend. The Corporation is still awaiting assay results for 22 drill holes.\n \n \n The 2022 drilling expanded the stacked vein system in the A-Zone and McLeod zone area from an area of 1.1 km by\n \n 250 m\n \n to 1.5 km by up to\n \n 400 m\n \n in the A-Zone and up to\n \n 600 m\n \n in the McLeod Zone. The mineralized trend remains open at depth and on strike.\n \n \n To date, 419 drill holes, for a total of\n \n 78,663 m\n \n , have been drilled on the Ishkoday.\n \n \n \"The 2022 drill program has helped prove the continuity of the current mineralized zones while also identifying new exploration targets,\" stated\n \n Cynthia Le S...
