The properties are located 34 km east of Stewart in\nthe \"Golden Triangle\" of northwest British Columbia.\n \n \n \n \n Highlights include:\n \n \n \n \n \n \n - 10 m wide chalcopyrite-rich zone\nwith VG (Visible Gold) in the first drill hole on the Del Norte/Lord\nNelson boundary.\n \n \n \n \n - VG identified in surface channel\nsaw cuts on the \"14 oz\" zone.\n \n \n \n \n - Wide mineralized intersection on\nthe Argo zone (Del Norte property).\n \n \n \n \n - Drilling has intersected a second\nmineralized zone located west of the Argo zone.\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Decade has completed over 6,000 m of drilling in 23\nholes to date testing three targets: the \"Argo\" zone (a 115\nm wide north-south zone of deformation), the newly discovered Eagle's\nNest zone and the newly discovered \"14 oz\" zone, the latter\nin the boundary area between the Del Norte and Lord Nelson properties.\n The drilling on the Argo and Eagle's Nest zones has indicated that\nmineralization is hosted by black mud lapilli tuffs that appear to\nhave repeat sections due to thrusting and faulting. Mineralized zones\nhost various sulphides including pyrite, sphalerite, galena and\ntetrahedrite along with sections mineralized by fine acicular\narsenopyrite. Intersections in the Argo zone have been up to 30 m long\nwithin certain drill holes. Drilling in 2020 has outlined the Argo\nzone over at least 500 m of strike length and it remains open to depth\nand along strike. Logging and diamond sawing of the core continues\nwith 2 separate core cutting stations. Assays are awaited.\n \n \n \n \n Attached is a photo of VG from the saw-cutting on the\n\"14 oz\" zone and from an intersection in DDH-20-23, the\nfirst hole into this promising area.\n \n \n \n \n E.
