This is going to be a huge deposit...
"Results from these holes represent expansion of the known mineralization," commented Golden Arrow VP Exploration and Development Brian McEwen. "We believe this will continue to be the case based on visual estimates of mineralization in the core from which results are pending, including from new targets that are over a kilometre from the existing resources."
The Phase III program plan initially included a minimum of 6000 metres of diamond drilling, and this has now been increased to 8000 metres. To date, 4200 metres has been completed, and the holes highlighted in Table 1 below include 1382 metres of the completed drilling.
The Chinchillas deposit remains open to expansion in most directions and at depth, and there are areas within the deposit that were not drilled at sufficient spacing to be included in the 2013 resource estimate. Approximately 3700 metres of drilling in this program aims to expand the existing resources.
