RE:del norte chalcopyrite is very visibleHighper, following your post I re-read the 2014 del norte drilling results and became suddendly very excited.
Based on Dino's comments and reports of the 2016 exploration program:
"Holes DN16-03 to 05 inclusive, recently drilled at varying angles from the same pad and with the same azimuth, all intersected extensive intervals containing pyrite and chalcopyrite mineralization. All three holes ended in mineralization. The steepest of the holes was drilled at minus 72 degrees and was stopped at 1338 feet at the limit of the drill. K-feldspar alteration and chalcopyrite content is most prevalent in the deeper sections of the holes. The host appears to be an altered intrusive." 2016 could be HUGE for us thanks to Del Norte.
As reported in Nov 2014, hole #5 hit the following:

| Drill Hole | Interval (metres) | Interval (feet) | Length (metres) | Length (feet) | Gold (g/t) | Copper (ppm) | Silver (g/t) | Copper Equiv.* (%) | Gold Equiv. * (g/t) |
| D14-05 | 17.68 to 125.58 | 58.00 to 412.00 | 107.90 | 354.00 | 0.44 | 666.18 | 1.96 | 0.34 | 0.58 |
| incl. | 17.68 to 60.05 | 58.00 to 197.00 | 42.37 | 139.00 | 0.71 | 626.45 | 2.80 | 0.50 | 0.85 |
0.85 g/T Au Eq at Nov 2014 gold/silver/copper price is not too shabby!
Is it reasonnable to expect to repeat or surpass such results but over longer intervals based on Dino's 2016 assessment/report?
CAN'T WAIT FOR THE ASSAYS!!!!
