Grade control drilling confirmed 1005 Level at Trident to be major ore horizon with numerous thick high grade intersections defining 500m long high grade ore zone eg 64m @ 8.6 g/t gold on the Western Zone and 10m @ 52.1 g/t gold on Athena.
Surface diamond drilling at Vine JV Prospect located 2.5km south of Trident continues to yield high grade results with VIND012 intersecting Athena-like reef grading 82.9 g/t gold over 1m.
