Exploration was focused within a 6 km soil and geophysical anomaly that surrounds the Revenue and Nucleus resource areas. Highlights of results available to date include: Expansion and definition of the Au-Ag-Cu-Mo-rich breccia body (WAu Breccia) first reported in 2017 (PR#17-12, October 19, 2017). The breccia was intersected by five additional drill holes including 72.00 metres of 1.33 g/t AuEq* (from 60.00m in RVD18-03), 128.00 metres of 1.27 g/t AuEq* (from 105.00m in RVD18-08), and 43.02 metres of 1.50 g/t AuEq* (from 62.52m in RVD18-11). Individual sample intervals have gold concentrations up to 27.2 g/t (Table 1) Multiple drill intersections of mineralization within the Revenue diatreme (main breccia body), including 44.00 metres of 1.08 g/t AuEq* (from 198.00m in RVD18-02), 19.81m of 1.24 g/t AuEq* (from 91.44m in RVD18-10), and 11.00 metres of 2.04 g/t AuEq* (from 146m in RVD18-10) (Table 2). WAu Breccia Target The WAu Au-Ag-Cu-Mo breccia, located near the southeast corner of the Revenue diatreme, was first intersected by two drill holes in 2011: RVD11-19 - 1.40 g/t Au, 9.2 g/t Ag, 0.21% Cu and 0.032% Mo over 76.34m (176.75-253.09m) and RVD11-28 - 0.86 g/t Au, 10.3 g/t Ag, 0.36% Cu and 0.120% Mo over 41.95m (208.30-250.25m) Relogging of core in 2016 identified the high-grade breccia zone as a discrete body, which was then targeted and intersected in 2017 by a stepout 41 metres west of RVD11-19: RVD17-12 - 1.18 g/t Au, 8.3 g/t Ag, 0.24% Cu and 0.013% Mo over 40.0m (247.50-287.50m) Modelling of the breccia as an east-west striking, south dipping body helped successfully target five additional drill holes in 2018 to test the breccia east of, and both up and down dip from, the original RVD11-19 drill intersection. These drill holes confirmed the continuity and grade of the breccia over a 130 metre strike length, and to a depth of at least 200 metres (Table 1). The breccia is open to depth and to the west beneath the Revenue diatreme. Drill hole locations are shown on Figure 1, and details of location and orienta...
