Bruce Durham, Chairman, commented, “High dollar value, high grade copper mineralization like the intersection in drill hole YH21-24 is very rare and they are important indicators of strong mineralizing fluid systems at work. We know there are numerous indications of copper and zinc mineralization in the local area and most remain only partially defined. By proceeding to drill these mineralized areas in detail we will begin to establish a solid understanding of the size, mineralogy, structural controls, and grade distribution within these various areas of known VMS style mineralization.”
