These results help to define the limits of mineralization at surface and give valuable information to assist in the correlation of gold values from existing diamond drilling and down-hole hammer work.

The Company and its geological team are encouraged by this information which supports earlier work and historical results suggesting reliability of grade estimators improves with sample size.

The T1 mineralized zone has been intersected 300m below surface where diamond drilling shows brecciation of the diorite, frequency of quartz veining, and gold distribution similar to that observed near surface in shallower diamond drill intersections.

Brecciation is confined to the competent intrusive rocks. Mineralization does not extend appreciably into the host sediments. Exposure of the mineralized diorite of the T1 zone at surface is limited by intruded sediments both to the southwest and to the northeast. Geological and geochemical data suggest mineralization within the diorite extends beneath the sediments in both directions.

Parallel mineralized zones that lie to the southeast have been traced for more than 300 metres along strike and are open in both directions, suggesting a similar strike potential for the T1 zone.
