The diamond drilling program to date has focused on the project’s Inferred Mineral Resource of 523,000 oz. Pd. Eq. (see press release of July 3, 2019) Located on the east end of the Valhalla Zone, the drilling program further tests the Palladium zone for structural controls as well as continuity downdip and along strike.
Results of the diamond drilling program to date have consistently produced Palladium values (see press release May 13, 2020). The next three holes will be completed on the east end of the Inferred Mineral Resource, after which the drill will be moved westward to continue with infill and down dip holes.
Wayne Tisdale, President, commented, “We are excited to restart our drilling program and advance our objective of increasing the project’s inferred resource. Solid palladium and platinum prices have greatly assisted.”
