Dec 29, 2010 (D Draper) - Amoco's initial drilling encountered graphitic, cherty, siliceous metasediments which carried elevated copper and zinc values. Similar units, described as graphitic, mineralized conductive zones within non-conductive siliceous metasediments, were intersected by Getty's two follow-up holes.

Dec 29, 2010 (D Draper) - Amoco hole DLO-74-6-3 returned 0.133% Cu and 0.250% Zn over 3ft. Hole DLO-74-6-4, collared approx. 350m north of 6-3, assayed 0.273% Zn over 5ft. (T-1691). Getty's hole DL-82-09, collared 400m NE of 6-3, assayed up to 3200 ppm Zn over 0.5m and 1100 ppm Cu over 0.5m. In DL-82-13, collared 300m north of 6-3, a succession of several conductive zones throughout the hole yielded elevated values, the highest being 3500 ppm Zn and 1500 ppm Cu. (T-2443)
