A 2.85-meter test hole\nundertaken to establish the potential for hosting gold below surface,\nand to understand the type of rock carrying the gold.  The drill core\nwas divided into 8 sections according to the changes in rock\ncomposition and submitted for gold assay.\n \n \n \n \n Each of the assays returned anomalous gold averaging 1\ng/t over 2m and 0.87 g/t Au over the entire 2.85m drilled. The highest\ngrades (1.492 and 2.245 g/t Au) were found in samples of quartz veins\nalthough samples within the basalt also returned anomalously high\nresults.\n \n \n \n \n Marcy Kiesman, CEO stated, “Intersecting gold at the\nsurface and within the first few meters in a random test hole is a\nvery good indicator for the potential of the Discovery Property and\nbodes well for the possibility of this area. The obvious next step is\nto complete further backpack drilling in the area to define the scale\nat surface in combination with diamond drilling at depth on the\nDiscovery Property.”\n \n \n \n \n The technical contents of this press release were\napproved by Jean Bernard, B.Sc.
