To date, nine holes in the current program have been reported (see November 21, 2022 and October 11, 2022), with five drill holes pending results and approximately 12 additional drill holes to follow. A second drill rig was mobilized during November 2022 and with two rigs operating 24-7, one located each at West Ayawilca and the other at South Ayawilca, the drill program will be completed in the first half of 2023.

On behalf of the Board,
