As quoted in the press release:

New drill results from Zone 2 include R12-01 with 92.8 metres of 0.30% copper, 0.15 g/t gold starting from bedrock surface and the zone remains open in extent. R12-02 returned 152.5 metres of 0.35% copper and 0.57 g/t rhenium, including 32.5 metres of 0.91% copper, 0.010 % molybdenum, 4.0 g/t silver, 0.11 g/t gold and 1.83 g/t rhenium.

Zone 2 continues to expand with positive results that are near surface and located about 6.5 kilometres from a producing open pit.
