President and CEO James McDonald said that three major trends have emerged where “the size of alteration and tenure of surface sampling” point to “excellent potential” for new gold and silver discoveries.

As quoted in the press release:

The 2013 multi-phase, drill and resource expansion program successfully established mineralization along, throughout and to at least 400 meters of the recently identified Central Breccia Zone situated between the Pit and Northeast Zones. Results indicate excellent potential exists for the establishment of continuity of mineralization between the two zones.

Numerous holes drilled within both the Central Breccia and Northeast Zones demonstrated high grades of mineralization and indicate potential to add significant tonnage to the established mineral resource.
