A total of five RC holes were drilled into the anomaly for an aggregate of 1,000 meters.
The Company will continue to evaluate all of the geological data on the property to determine the best course of action going forward.

RC drill samples were subject to crushing at a minimum of 70 per cent passing two millimetres, followed by pulverizing of a 250-gram split to 85 per cent passing 75 microns. Gold determination was via standard 30-gram fire assay (FA) analysis with atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) finish.
SUPERNOVA follows industry-standard procedures for the work carried out on the Clanton Hills silver project, with a quality assurance/quality control (“QA/QC”) program. Standard samples were inserted into the sample sequence sent to the laboratory for analysis. SUPERNOVA detected no significant QA/QC issues during review of the data.
