Highlights:
- MIT17-01 intersected a broad zone of gold mineralization; 30.50 m of 0.70 grams per tonne (“g/t”) gold, including 8.10 m of 1.10 g/t gold, and 9.40 m of 1.02 g/t gold;
- MIT17-01 also intersected high grade mineralization, 9.26 g/t gold over 0.50 m
- MIT17-02 intersected multiple zones of mineralization, with 23% of the assay intervals returning between 0.50 – 3.65 g/t gold;
