As quoted in the press release:

The 2014 diamond drilling program will focus on the high-grade Santa Nino and the Dos Hermanos zones, both of which returned excellent results from the first round of drilling in 2013. The objective of the Phase II program is to test the down dip extension of the clavos in the vicinity of where it intersects the contact with the Lower Volcanic Sequence.

The company has identified a number of epithermal, low-sulphidation gold and silver prospects along the NW-SE trending fault which has been traced for over 3 kilometers of strike length on the property. Mapping, prospecting and channel sampling programs will be carried out to assess the potential for trenching and drilling targets.
