Diamond drilling commenced on June 8, 2021 and a total of 25 drill holes were completed totaling 1,616.8 metres.

The drilling rig was then moved over to test the Lively vein where a total of 12 holes (1,061.2 metres) were also drilled. One hole (110.7 metres) was drilled to test for a northern extension of the COD vein beneath a mineralized vein in surface outcrop.

Drilling originally planned for the Gold Drop vein was postponed due to the risk of fire when working in the forest during the extreme heat this past summer. The weather has now cooled expectations are to resume drilling.
Core logging and sampling was completed in July and August and samples were submitted in August for assay. Results are pending at this time.

Analyses disclosed in this release were conducted by ALS Global - Geochemistry Analytical Lab in North Vancouver, BC, Canada. ALS is an independent, fully accredited commercial laboratory. All mineralized vein samples were analyzed by the metallics sieve method (ALS Code Au-SCR24) with gold determination by fire assay. For other samples, gold was determined by the fire assay method using a 50-gram sample weight and AA finish. Over-limits were re-analyzed by fire assay using a gravimetric finish. Other metals were analyzed as part of a 48-element package using a four-acid digestion and determination by ICP-MS.
