The 2015 winter drilling program was designed to evaluate priority targets identified from a target generation exercise completed over the entire property and take advantage of winter access conditions. Target areas evaluated included: the west limb of the prominent folded unit along which new gold showings were identified in 2014; the south-west and north-east strike extensions of the 325-Megane Zone and the structural corridor referred to as the Monster Lake Shear Zone (“MLSZ”); as well as the Zone 52 and Eratix prospect areas. A few of the holes were drilled to better delineate the 325-Megane Zone.
Concurrent with the 2015 winter drilling program, a Versatile Time Domain Electromagnetic airborne survey (“VTEM”) was also flown over the Lac a L’Eau Jaune and Winchester claim blocks. The survey has identified several strong conductors coincident with the well-known, prominent magnetic anomalies similar to that observed along the MLSZ. These targets will be evaluated in the ongoing exploration program.
