Drilling has returned multiple intersections of high-grade Au-Cu-Ag & Zn mineralization from Santa Helena's ongoing resource delineation drill program[1]. This is highlighted by CD-727 where a greater than 100 gram-metre interval is being reported.Meridian is also reporting that Santa Fé's first reconnaissance exploration program has discovered gold mineralization hosted by the overlying basal conglomerates of the Aguapei Formation (\"Aguapei\"). The Aguapei has been actively mined for gold in the Alto Guaporé gold province west of Cabaçal. This opens a new frontier for gold exploration in the southeastern areas of the Cabaçal project. The Company is also reporting on the expansion of the exploration program, and the commencement of regional drilling at the Cigarra Cu-Au prospect.Mr. Gilbert Clark, CEO, comments: \"Today's results are confirming that significant and near-surface extensions of open mineralization extend out from the historical Santa Hel...
