The highest grade zones in hole NW-1 were intercepted approximately 150 metres below the deepest holes drilled by previous companies. The high-grade intervals are in strongly decalcified limestone within the Favret formation, which has been cut by northwest-striking, southwest- and northeast-dipping structural systems. The Favret, where it is cut by these gold-bearing structural systems, is the main NW-Cove target northwest of the Cove open pit. The mineralization encountered in these holes is open in all directions.

Holes NW-1 and NW-3 are part of an initial, three-hole, diamond drilling program designed to define structural systems and to thereby drill deeper convergence zones indicated by Victoria's mapping programs. Hole NW-2 was lost and NW-2A represents the third hole to be drilled, and both are pending assays, but similar alteration-mineralization occurs in these two holes. Additional holes are being designed to further test these thick zones of alteration-mineralization in the NW-Cove target area.
