CEO, Jason Bahnsen, commented \"Historic RC drilling at Tin Cup in the 1980s intersected steeply angled veins with grades up to 40 grams per tonne gold. We are excited to begin drilling at Tin Cup where we plan to confirm the previous high-grade RC results with large diameter HQ diamond core drilling and test the system to a depth of approximately 350 metres, well below the maximum historic drilling depth of 180 metres.
