Aug 16, 2024 (Nazha Sabiri) - Within the property two vein systems has been identified: 1. Boyce Vein that strikes 035 azimuth for at least 40 m, dips SE 85°, has a true width of 0.5 to 0.8 m for at least 40 m below surface and contains elevated concentrations of gold, silver and molybdenum in drill holes MB07-02 and MB07-04. It is characterized by white to blue-grey quartz veining containing less than 1 % disseminated pyrite with graphite or molybdenite. The Marion Vein, intersected in hole MB07-07, is a quartz-carbonate-chlorite-sericite filled fractures with 3-5% pyrite, strikes 025 azimuth, dips 80° NW, has a true width of less than 0.5 m to 1.5 m to at least 60 m below surface with elevated gold and molybdenum concentrations .
