Gold values occur primarily within the limbs of three fold structures which have been mapped and sampled on surface for a combined strike length of more than 3 kilometres (2 miles). The project operator has reported that, based on the distribution of gold at surface, there is an excellent chance for high grade zones to occur along this length. Interpretations of drilling results on cross sections indicate that the gold occurs in multiple sub-parallel layers ranging up to 45 feet in thickness thickness (thik´nes) a measurement across the smallest dimension of an object.

In addition to the new assays listed above, "metallic" assays were completed on selected high grade sections previously reported from standard assays. The following table shows a comparison of standard and "metallic" assays; a number of the more reliable "metallic" assays are higher than those originally reported: -0-
