American Corporation, a geochemical laboratory based in Reno, Nevada. Check samples are tested by fire assay and cyanide cyanide (sī`ənīd'), chemical compound containing the cyano group, -CN. Cyanides are salts or esters of hydrogen cyanide (hydrocyanic acid, HCN) formed by replacing the hydrogen with a metal (e.g., sodium or potassium) or a radical (e.g. leach assay methods at other laboratories. The Viviana Norte zone is associated with the Viviana Fault, an east-west trending structure with a known length of approximately 3.8 kilometres. The Viviana Fault is of significance because it is thought to be the upper portion of the structure that hosted the past producing Amelia Mine. The Amelia pit produced in excess of 100,000 ounces of gold. VV-103, which intersected 1.59 g/t gold over 4.5 metres, was drilled last year to test a strongly deformed de·formed adj.

VV-106, which intersected 8.84 g/t gold over 16.5 metres, was collared 40 metres west of VV-103. The subsequent drilling was completed at 40 metre fences to better define the extent of the Viviana Norte zone.

The zone is open at depth and to the west. Based on geological mapping, the Viviana Norte zone has a potential strike length of 400 metres, approximately 230 metres more than currently drill tested. A further programme of reverse circulation drilling will be started shortly.
