A new drill hole on the Chui prospect confirmed the high grade mineralisation identified by a previous drill hole which intersected gold anomalies at 11 metres at 23 grams per tonne (g/t) of gold.
The new hole intersected 12 metres at 6.02g/t gold from 33 metres in the reverse circulation percussion pre‐collar and extending to the end of the pre‐collar.
A total of 117 holes for 4,290 metres of drilling have now been completed in the second phase of 2012 drilling. It involved 107 aircore holes, 9 reverse circulation percussion holes and one diamond drill hole.
