RE: i understand several drill resultsThere were 20 holes drilled, and the program is complete from what I understand. We've received results from the first hole (see below for results and analysis by mooreman).
They are quite encouraging for a number of reasons. Realizing that it's only one hole, I'm impressed with both the intersection width and the polymetallic assays. 5.4 m is a "mineable width", and what's particularly encouraging is the consistency through that interval. There are 4 sampled intervals (from 0.6-1.1 m) in that 5.4m that all contained highly anomalous values of silver, copper, lead and zinc, essentially meaning little dilution of wall rock. This consistentcy is so important but rarely seen. So often, a co. reports strong assays, but the intersection is artificially "inflated" by taking a minute 10cm or 20 cm bonanza grade and averaging it over several metres of essentially waste rock. It provides a thick looking intersection that could never be economically mined due to the ridiculous dilution.
Anyway, from a geologist's perspective, the results are quite enncouraging, albeit as I said earlier, for only one hole.
There's still so much more to come. Have a good evening.
