The 2023 BAM Project Drill Program builds on the three prior years' exploration and is targeting the porphyry system interpreted to be feeding the surface mineralization at the Monarch Gold Zone and\n \n Jan Copper Zone\n \n .\n \n \n Exploration crews mobilized to BAM in mid-May and quickly established the camp and began field evaluation of drill targets identified from the 2022 geophysical surveys. For 2023, drilling is expected to be completed in two phases with the first phase consisting of approximately 3,000 meters and the second phase contingent of first phase results.\n \n \n \"We believe we are on the cusp of a major discovery at BAM,\" commented\n \n Ken McNaughton\n \n , Chief Exploration Officer of P2. \"Geology, geophysics and surface evaluation are all pointing to significant porphyry-related mineralization underlying the Monarch Gold and Jan Copper Zones and indicating potential for additional porphyry-related mineralization elsewhere on the property. This is the summer where we believe all of our prior exploration work comes together to drive discovery.\"\n \n \n The BAM 2022 Exploration Program consisted of 13,962 meters of drilling, completed primarily at the Monarch Gold Zone, which greatly enhanced understanding of the geology at BAM and resulted in an initial Mineral Resource for the Monarch Gold Zone (\n \n see news release dated\n \n January 25, 2023\n \n \n ). The drilling also expanded the Monarch Gold Zone to over 1 kilometer by 1.2 kilometers in area, with the zone remaining open in multiple directions. Petrographic and TerraSpec analysis completed in the off season has confirmed field observations that alteration...
