Vice President of Exploration, Dr. George Gale, states, "Hole 61 demonstrates that the B lense has potential to host exceptional copper grades. The lower intersection at 372.32 m may very well represent the beginning of a new and deeper B-type lense, which also occurs within the alteration zone rocks. We will continue to focus our investigations on locating the source for this mobilized mineralization."
