Vice President of Exploration, Dr. George Gale states: “Hole RD-08-73 was drilled below, and at the same azimuth as, holes RD-08-61, RD-08-51 and RD-08-54 near the western edge of our drilling pattern, but approximately 25 m east of the western most section drilled. The intersection confirms that mineralization continues to a depth of more than 350 m in this part of the deposit. The geological and geophysical borehole models indicate that both A and B lenses plunge towards the west and southwest and are still open west of the last section drilled.”
