The airborne survey will collect\nmagnetic and electromagnetic data to calculate conductivity and be\ncompleted in late March to early April. Data can then be evaluated in\ntime to provide guidance to the proposed drill programs and other\nplanned exploration efforts on both the Silver Hart and Rancheria\nSouth projects. This survey is being completed in cooperation with\nanother company active in the Rancheria Silver district within British\nColumbia.\n \n \n \n \n The magnetic data will help the Company to detail the\ncontacts of intrusions with altered sediments that are prospective for\nhigh grade silver-lead-zinc veins, carbonate replacement deposits and\nskarns.\n \n \n \n \n Historical VLF-EM surveys and analyses of drill cores\nhave shown that the silver-lead-zinc mineralization at Silver Hart is\nstrongly conductive.  The SkyTEM dual-mode EM survey will map in the\naxes of strong conductors to depths of several hundred meters while\nstill providing high resolution of near-surface conductors. SkyTEM\nwill also model resistivity/depth sections for lines with significant\nanomalies.\n \n \n \n \n The SkyTEM data will be assessed early in the 2021\nfield season by Dr. Chris Hale of Intelligent Exploration, the\nCompany’s Geophysical Advisor. Surface exploration including\ngeological mapping, geochemical sampling (soils and trenching), and\nground geophysics (VLF-EM, Induced Polarization and Magnetometer)...
