This interval is punctuated with a 1.0-meter zone that returned 784.0 g/t silver, highlighting the high-grade and historically overlooked silver potential of the Finn zone epithermal-related system. Highlights:Drill hole FZ-25-002 investigated the gold-silver mineralization potential of the Finn Zone and evaluated the structural controls on the high-grade silver component. The drill hole intersected a broad zone of near-surface gold-silver mineralization punctuated with high-grade gold and silver veins and hydrothermal breccias:46.0 meters of 1.03 g/t gold with 44.9 g/t silver from 38.0 meters downhole, including17.0 meters of 2.31 g/t gold with 113.1 g/t silver from 49.0 meters downhole, and including6.0 meters of 5.30 g/t gold with 157.9 g/t silver from 60.0 meters downholehigh-grade gold-silver intercepts of: 447 g/t silver with 0.93 g/t gold over 1.0 meter at 53.0 meters down hole19.75 g/t gold with 80.90 g/t silver over 1.0 meter at 60.0 meters down hole784 g/t silver with 6.79 g/t gold over 1.0 meter at 65.0 meters down holeConfirms the strong high-grade gold-silver potential of the Finn Zone: Numerous high-grade intercepts in drill holes FZ-25-002 and FZ-25-001 (e.g., 273 g/t silver with 2.6 g/t gold over 0.51 meters at 38.3 meters downhole and 22.9 g/t gold with 29.0 g/t silver over 0.50 meters at 65.0 meters downhole, (Table 1) demonstrate the high-grade potential of the target. Additional drilling and modelling focused on the structural controls on the...
