The upcoming Phase II drill program is anticipated to commence in the next two weeks and is further detailed in Figure 1 below. A third phase of drilling will follow, once all assay results have been received, interpreted and released to the market. The primary goals of the Phase II program will be to (i) extend the best-known historical mineralization at the Hercules Adit and Frogpond Zones, and (ii) test multiple new targets generated by recent greenfields exploration. Following the receipt of approximately ~$1.3M in cash from the recent exercise of options and warrants and the closing of a $5.75M private placement, the Company has elected to increase the size of its upcoming Phase II drill program to a minimum of 6,000 meters, allowing for deeper drilling and the testing of additional high-priority targets.
