All 17 drill holes intersected many other narrow gold-mineralized shears and veins of subeconomic grades or widths, suggesting the presence of a strong hydrothermally altered and mineralized system throughout the Ianna stock and surrounding rock formations.

A sixth high priority bulk tonnage target, the Yakishuru Anomaly, remains yet to be drilled. Significant, new, soil geochemical gold anomalies were discovered by continued reconnaissance soil sampling grid in the southeast corner of the property (up to 9.71 gpt gold) and in the Pipiani Hills area towards the northwest (up to 0.81 gpt).

A Phase 2 program of geophysical surveys, deep augering and diamond drilling Diamond Drilling is a highly specialized industry used for mineral exploration around the world. Most commonly using wireline and core bits with diamond encrusted matrix. To drill holes to max depths of twelve thousand feet, for the recovery of core used in verifying mineral  has been proposed to further test the high priority gold targets.
