Highlights of follow up drilling at Pristine include an intersection of 11.98g/t Au over 6 metres from 91 metres (64 metres vertical) including 30.61g/t over 2.33 metres and 82.2g/t over 0.75 metres that contained 77 grains of visible gold in Hole K-22-270. All mineralization drilled to date at Pristine occurs above 86 metres vertical depth and extends over a strike length of approximately 160 metres.
Further results from first stage drilling at DropKick include 1.15g/t Au over 12.4 metres from 190.25 metres including 7.74g/t Au over 0.3 metres in hole K-23-231 and 1.46g/t Au over 6.75 metres from 162.25 metres including 3.72g/t Au over 2.15 metres in Hole K-23-251.
Ongoing drilling at Big Vein returned 1.10g/t Au over 9.3 metres from 195 metres, including 1.49g/t over 5.3 metres in Hole K-23-246 and 1.47g/t Au over 6.55 metres from 107.88 metres in hole K-23-237.
“Today’s result of high-grade, near surface gold mineralization at Pristine validates our belief that there is more to be found at Pristine. It is also the third discovery along the
