The 2021 program was significantly expanded over the previous year's exploration program and entailed detailed geophysics, rock, soil, and stream sediment sampling programs which have been correlated with the 2020 exploration and drill result data. A prioritized 2021/22 drill program is currently being finalized for the following high priority target areas:\n \n \n \n Skopos - located immediately south of the Wingdam underground placer project.\n \n \n Mary Creek - on trend 10 kilometers northwest of Wingdam.\n \n \n Roadcut Gossan - along trend 15 kilometers south of the Wingdam underground workings.\n \n \n \n Omineca has an expanded multi-area, multi-year permit that now covers the 2021/22 drill and future exploration programs. These programs are planned to begin in the winter 2021/22 season and run through 2022. Each program will be announced once finalized.\n \n \n \n Stephen Kocsis\n \n , P. Geo., and lead geologist comments,\n \n \"The 2021 exploration program, correlated with the 2020 data, is providing the geological team with highly prospective targets for the upcoming 2021/2022 drill season. With very limited historical hard rock mining, exploration or drilling in the area, the geophysical and geochemical programs continue to corroborate our general theory of the main structural setting for potential lode gold deposits that could have been the source of the autochthonous or locally derived placer gold found at Wingdam. We have several new soil and stream sediment gold and pathfinder element anomalies along trend pr...
