A second interval of 13.88 gpt gold over 2.0m was encountered somewhat deeper in a new mineralized structure deemed the F2-Zone.Hole TB21-005B, another wedge hole drilled from hole TB21-005, returned 8.15 gpt gold over 4.1m from the F-Zone.Hole TB21-005A, the first wedge hole drilled from TB21-005, returned 6.23 gpt gold over 13.3m confirming Hardrock's robust F-Zone extends onto Tombill's flagship property. The Company is encouraged by the number of other multiple subsidiary zones that the drilling has intersected both above and below the main F-Zone target. These subsidiary zones are relatively narrow where they have been intersected due to their different plunge orientation when compared to the F-Zone. It is anticipated that these zones will be the focus of additional work after the F-Zone has been more fully delineated.Results from the Talmora Near Surface Drilling ProgramTombill has completed an initial drilling program to investigate the extent of near surface gold mineralization around the historic Talmora mine on Tombill's Main Group claims. Tombill is investigating this area to understand the potential for broad lower grade halos of gold mineralization around the narrow higher-grade veins historically mined in this area.The Talmora drill progra...
