(i) The length of the samples is expressed as the lengths of the channel. True 
    thickness is not yet estimated.

Northeast of the trench, sampling ends in high-grade gold values as the mineralized zone plunges abruptly under thick overburden.

“We are very satisfied with the results and they will help plan the next phases of fieldwork,” commented Philippe Cloutier, President and CEO.
