Deeper step-back holes sometimes require a combination of drill pipe diameters to reach the target depth. The need for additional pipe options is routine in early drilling and does not affect the integrity of the program. We remain focused on collecting high-quality geological information that will guide the next phases of work."","length":517,"tagName":"p"},{"type":"text","content":"Qualified Person","length":16,"tagName":"p"},{"type":"text","content":"The technical information in this news release has been reviewed and approved by Garry K.
