Message: From our last NR

I touched on the importance of the 2 paragraphs below from our last NR, in a previous post, but will get a little deeper into it now.

"Several sampled (halved core) intervals were noted to contain sulphide mineralization. Sulphide mineralization is directly associated with quartz/carbonate veins and/or veinlets and the restricted areas of alteration surrounding these veins. A review of the assay data compiled to date indicates a correlation between these visible sulphides and gold mineralization.

The Company is in the midst of a systematic program of re-sampling and drill core analysis with a focus on increasing the sampling intervals both above and below any noted quartz/sulphide intersections, and where areas of multiple sulphide mineralization were noted, continuous sampling through these zones to combine one single sampled interval. In this capacity, potentially mineralized wall rock between close spaced mineralized veins can be tested, towards bulk tonnage mineral potential."

The first paragraph pretty well says what we have been saying all along, that there is an established association between gold and the sulphides. I would further interpret it as saying that veinlets are observed in the host rock and also contain sulphides and gold, without the quartz. This would say to me that the diorite may be mineralized by its own method rather than being mineralized by a quartz intrusion.

The second paragraph pretty well states that we are sampling more of the cores already reported on. The sulphides will be the target and if enough of them are present throughout the core, we may end up getting the whole cores analysed. The importance of this is, that there was very limited sampling of the cores reported to date, now she is gonna sample in between the reported intercepts. This is where it may get interesting if the whole core is mineralized between the reported sections taken to date. For example; if you take the reported section of 37m at .74 g/t, and sample the whole distances in between the high grades and come up with an average of .75 g/t, you would have to add that to the existing .74 g/t to get an interval of approx 37m at 1.5 g/t gold. If we take this a step further, and get an average out of the whole core ~ 1 g/t, this would be excellent considering its on the northern flank of the anomaly, and not in it.

Of course, we can,t make these statements as facts, but they cannot be ruled out as possibilities at this time, until we do get more facts.

This is all speculation on my part and may be far from actual results.
