The Company has now drilled a total of 4,864 meters in 42 DD holes and 4,842 meters in 62 RC holes since the beginning of the drilling program at Oko West in December 2020. All significant assay results have now been reported. Carlos Bertoni, the interim CEO of the Company, stated: "We continue to receive impressive assay results from the drilling campaign at Oko West. Several drill holes confirmed down-dip continuity of gold mineralization in unweathered rocks down to a depth of 150 meters. The overall mineralized footprint has been expanded to 850 meters in strike length and remains open at depth and on strike. We plan to conduct a follow-up drilling program starting in mid-October of approximately 9,000 meters using two diamond drill rigs and one reverse circulation drill rig to further define the gold mineralization footprint and continue discovering new mineralized zones." The drilling campaign is testing the vertical and lateral continuity of trench gold anomalies previously identified in eight mineralized "blocks" straddling mineralized north-south shear zones over a 3 km long strike length (Figure 1). Mineralized intersections are characterized by zones of intense hydrothermal alteration (carbonate, sericite, pyrite, silica) in sheared clastic sediments, granitoids, and mafic volcanics with disseminated gold containing metric-scale high-grade veins assaying up to several ounces per tonne. Oko West is part of a group of permits in the Cuyuni River basin covering an area of approximately 10,880 acres where the Company has an option to acquire a 100% ownership interest. |
