The proposed drill program of 20,000 feet (6,100 meters) will be augmented with a second rig later in the summer. The initial drill holes will be directed at the Carbonate Replacement Deposit (“CRD”) bonanza mineralization intersected in hole JR-20-12DD which returned from 15.21 meters to 18.44 meters returned 3.23 meters averaging 57.16 g/t Au, 452.0 g/t Ag, 7.23 % Pb, and 11.99% Zn (see PRD dated Feb 23, 2021).
Subsequent targets will include the Hamburg Zone where drilling last year returned a wide zone of mineralization in holes JR-20-02 from 123.44 to 181.36 meters, over 57.91 meter in width (drill width) averaging 0.44 g/t Au and 3.0 g/t Ag, with a higher-grade portion from 152.40 to 169.16 meters, over 16.76 meters averaging 0.94 g/t Au and 6.6 g/t Ag.
Also, at the Hamburg Zone a CRD intercept drilled in a 2012 program has never been followed up by diamond drilling. Reverse circulation (“RC”) JR-12-06, from 15.2 to 18.2 meters, over 3.0 meters returned 1.1 g/t Au, 601.0 g/t Ag, 8.8 % Pb, and 4.7 % Zn.
