President Noah Komavli; "Hole 2 and hole 3 begin to tell us an interesting story at depth, with hole 2 being the deepest hole drilled in Phase 1 and in the history of the property. The data collection in both holes starts to depict increasing sulphide content at depths, with hole 3 drilled farther west than hole 2 - delivering thicker veining and increasing overall sulphide content towards hole termination. A noted increase of chalcopyrite was observed in this hole when compared with TAK-26-02."

Drilling Operation Update

The following holes have been completed during Phase 1 drilling. With 2 holes still to be cut to completion and submitted for fire assay.
