Western Exploration Drilling of Kamloops, BC, is presently mobilizing to site and is anticipated to be set up and drilling by mid July. The up to 4,000 metre drilling program will test several key targets on the Akie property, including the Cardiac Creek deposit, the GPS bedded barite showing, the South Zinc Anomaly and other promising property-scale targets that have been identified through careful analysis of exploration data coincident with anomaly targets from the 2012 Airborne VTEM survey.
