As promising as the discovery of this new vein system was, what the Company found most interesting from the data of the first two drill holes were the results obtained from oxidized oxidized having been modified by the process of oxidation. oxidized cellulose see absorbable cellulose. skarn samples, 0.33 and 0.30 g/t Au are 10 times higher than gold assays in the skarn on the other side of the fault, at the same elevation elevation, vertical distance from a datum plane, usually mean sea level to a point above the earth. Often used synonymously with altitude, elevation is the height on the earth's surface and altitude, the height in space above the surface. . This validated our theory that we are closer to the main source of the mineralization Mineralization The process by which the body uses minerals to build bone structure.

Furthermore, these assays were part of a 5.11 meters thick skarn intercept intercept in mathematical terms the points at which a curve cuts the two axes of a graph. , which was close to an additional 27.6 meters of skarn and an additional 20 meters section cut in the second hole. The third and fourth holes, SJ 17-06 and SJ 17-07, were aimed at verifying the presence of known veins west of the Tres Aguilas fault in the old sector of the Santa Juana mine, west-south-west and east-north-east of the existing workings. They were drilled at nearly flat angles, from level 17, N250 degrees and N70 degrees for 105 meters and 158 meters respectively.
