Gold extends discontinuously over an approximately 10km long, northeast trending ridge comprised of Oligocene age volcanic and intrusive rocks. Gold mineralization is dominantly low-sulfidation epithermal in style and appears to be both stratabound and structurally controlled.\nIn late 2014 the Company conducted an exploratory reverse circulation drilling program at the Gomec project, notable results from that program included GRC-014, 76 meters at 1.0g/t (including 24 meters at 2.0g/t gold and 18.7g/t silver), GRC-013, 56 meters at 1.0g/t (including 22 meters at 2.0g/t gold and 15.6g/t silver) and GRC-015, 40 meters at 1.0g/t gold in contiguous drill holes located 100m away from each other. \nA follow-up reverse circulation drilling program commenced on June 14 this year. The program is expected to total approximately 3000 meters and will be comprised of a combination of infill holes, step out holes along and across strike of the previous drilling and exploratory holes on newly identified and previously undrilled targets along and adjacent to the 10km long gold mineralized ridge.\nResults have now been returned from the first three drill holes at the project (see Table 1 and Figures 1 and 2). All three drill holes have returned significant intersections as follows: \n\n \n \n \n GRC-021 \n 32.0m at 1.1 g/t gold \n \n \n \n GRC-022 \n 118.0m at 1.0 g/t gold (end of hole); including \n \n \n \n \n 22.0m at 3.9 g/t gold and 21 g/t silver \n \n \n \n GRC-023 \n 36.0m at 1.0 g/t gold; and \n \n \n \n \n 22.0m at 1.0 g/t gold \n \n \nThese three drill holes are following a dominantly no...
