Expanded Drill Program at Gold Chain

Since September, the Company has completed 3,229 m of drilling at the Tyro Main Zone. Initial drilling focused on infill drilling of the near-surface portion of the deposit (1,178 m) and expanding the high-grade zone at northeast (NE) Tyro (2,051 m). Assays are pending for 1,594 m.

With the addition of a second drill rig, the Company plans to drill an additional 5,000 m in this program for a total of 15,000 m (was 10,000 m). The addition of a second drill and expansion of the drill program are expected to enable the Company to test more step-out targets at Gold Chain and to expand the Tyro Main Zone to depth.

Targets that may be tested include Tyro South, Sheep Trail mine, Black Dyke mine, Gold Chain Hill and Union Pass Corridor targets, along with follow-up drilling at the Frisco Graben (Figure 1). Additional permitting work is underway to test targets, not on the patented claims.

The addition of the second drill rig allows the Company to systematically test these targets while continuing to advance the Tyro Main Zone toward a maiden resource.
