These reserves are included in the Golden Creek block, over a strike length of 1000 metres up to a depth of 350 metres. Approximately 15,000 metres of diamond drilling and 1.5 kilometres of drifting were conducted within this area. Reserves were estimated on 25 to 50 metre sections. Based on this successful exploration program, TVX anticipates commencing a pre-feasibility study in 1996 while continuing exploration work. The Kasperske Hory project is located 160 kilometres southwest of Prague near the town of Kasperske Hory, in the Czech Republic, about 20 kilometres from the border of Germany and situated in the Sumava Mountain Range.
