The hole returned multiple high-grade intervals including 2.9 m @ 14.4 g/t gold equivalent and 2.5 m @ 18.4 g/t gold equivalent.Expanding Strike Length to 1.5 km: The gold-bearing corridor now extends 1.5 km from Apollo East to Christina West, with westernmost intersections including 7.1 m @ 5.2 g/t gold equivalent containing higher grades up to 74.8 g/t gold. This represents a significant expansion of the known mineralized footprint. Deepest and Most Westerly Intersections: These results include the deepest high-grade gold intersections at Christina, reaching 926 meters depth (580m below surface) with 1.0 m @ 9.5 g/t gold equivalent. They lie approximately 100 m outside the current Exploration Target boundary, proving mineralization extends much deeper and further west than previously defined.Growth Beyond Exploration Target: Multiple high-grade gold zones have been discovered well outside the current exploration area, with drill hole SDDSC160W2 intersecting seven separate mineralized intervals down to record depths. This demonstrates the deposit continues to grow beyond original geological interpretations, expanding the potential resource base.Michael Hudson, President & CEO, states: \"These results demonstrate exceptional geological continuity to the deepest levels tested at Christina. The discovery of high-grade mineralization well outside our current Exploration Target validates our geological model and continues to confirm the robust vertical extent of this impressive system.\"What's particularly exciting is that our systematic infil...
