· Third diamond hole, RP03, intersects an altered sequence of limestone and andesitic sills with zones of chalcopyrite and pyrite mineralisation
· RP03 displays increased levels of sulphide mineralisation, veining and alteration compared to the recently completed second drill hole, RP02
· RP02 also demonstrated increased levels of alteration and pyrite compared to first hole, RP01
· Consistent vectoring indicators in RP01, RP02 and RP03 show increased hydrothermal activity and sulphide mineralisation moving from west to east
· Consideration being given to extending RP03 beyond its planned depth of 380m, before commencing RP04
· Samples from RP01 now submitted for assay analysis
