*Core length
These new results demonstrate the existence of two distinct veins located near each other. The A zone is dipping near 55 degrees, and the B zone is dipping near 90 degrees. The results continue to expand the dimension of the 8-H-14 (See the longitudinal section for the holes location). The 2 drills on level 6 continue their exploration activities and results will be published as they become available.
On the surface, a fifth drill began its exploration activities on July 1st. The goal of this surface campaign is to follow-up with the geophysical work completed in the fall 2014 on properties surrounding the Bachelor camp that generated targets to drill. The first targeted area is a property east of the mine.
The true width is between 50 and 85% of the core length obtained in diamond drill holes. The cap-off grade used in the analysis is 51.5 g/T or 1.5 oz Au. The samples were assayed by fire-assay at the Metanor assay lab. The quality control program of the assay results (QA QC) adopted by Metanor includes a minimum of 10% of controlled assays being conducted as well as verification by an independent external assay lab.
