The program was successful in extending the strike\nlength of the BT structure at the Bighorn Target to 525 metres in\nlength, with at least 1,400 metres of potential strike length exposure\nwithin prospective Basal Quartzite unit rocks. This program upgrades\nthis target in terms of drilling priority for 2023. The 8,579 hectare\nHaldane project is located in the western portion of the Keno Hill\nsilver district, 25 kilometres west of Keno City, Yukon.  Exploration\nat Haldane is investigating the extensions of historical high-grade\nsilver production on the property as well as recently defined targets,\nsuch as the West Fault where Alianza is outlining high-grade silver\nmineralization which recently returned\n \n 3.14 m (true width) averaging 1,351 g/t silver, 2.43% lead and 2.91%\nzinc\n \n in drilling.\n \n \n \n “The BT structure at Bighorn now rivals other\npriority targets such as West Fault and Middlecoff in observed and\npotential strike length,” stated Rob Duncan, M.Sc., Vice President,\nExploration for Alianza. “The presence of silver-lead mineralization\nin the first and only drill hole at Bighorn in 2019 is very\nencouraging and indicates there is a strong possibility of this\nstructure being a significant host to silver mineralization.”\n \n \n \n Four target areas were investigated in the 2022 program, Bighorn,\nSundown, Bighorn East and Ross West. Field work at Bighorn targeted\nthe extension of known mineralization identified in surface trenches\nand diamond drilling in 2019. This hole (HLD19-15) was the first test\nwithin a 900 metre long silver-lead soil geochemical anomaly,\nintersecting four separate structures in drilling, with one yielding\n2.35 m of 125.7 g/t silver and 4.39% lead.
