Plotting on Google Earth.

Two lines of Croesus Aircore holes in the north with a few wide spaced AZY diamond holes in 2011/12 (11, 16, 17, 22 all with patchy, generally narrow low grade Au/Cu over broad intervals Best 11-11 see below) and a couple of Croesus RC/?DD holes (no significant assays). Haven't checked but recall 20-9 had some interesting intervals.

Some more of the same lowish grades to 521.

The Sentinel sites plot along or proximal to a combined GAIP chargeability anomaly and magnetic high (somewhat masked in this image).

For interest this is an early geology interpretation. The area and holes on the last two maps are visually placed relative to the old drill hole locations. An assumption that these are accurate - should be reasonable if not precise.

The results of previous wide spaced drilling suggest the Magnum system does continue to the NW albeit possibly weaker than further south. Drilling has been sparse in this area with results suggesting mineralisation may be below aircore depths implying RC or wider spaced diamond traverses may be needed. Not a strong or well considered 'argument' as mineralisation may come to the unconformity around 80 or so metres vertically.
The GAIP and IP surveys plus magnetics also support interpreted geological continuity making this a reasonable target.

It's really looking like the Citadel results for this year will be released in the week leading up to Xmas, like some of the other results in the past 2 years

I'm not exactly sure, how much input AZY has in regards to the Citadel exploration programme, hopefully an integral part. But I do know for a fact that Rio Tinto has some of their brightest minds behind this exploration campaign. This is district scale exploration, the kind of high stakes that Twiggy-FMG and BHP are currently in a bidding war for in Canada for a "mining district". Only that the prospects in the Paterson are on equal par or more valuable
