Widely spaced drill holes have been, and continue to be, drilled in an orderly fashion across just the northerly portion of the newly discovered TNT target. The initial large step-outs to the east, south and north on this early phase of drilling at TNT have been planned to create an optimally spaced grid across the target area for upcoming downhole geophysical surveying to better understand the extent of mineralization in the northern portion of the large TNT target, with the view to ultimately finding high-grade massive sulphides. The initial two step-out drill holes, BTU-19-19 and BTU-19-20, were located 165 and 355 metres east of discovery hole BTU-19-13 and perpendicular to the strike of the TNT system. Drill core assay results from these two holes have proven the large step-outs successful in identifying copper, silver and gold mineralization across the east-west span so far. BTU-19-25 was drilled further east along the same line and visual inspection confirms that copper mineralization continues to the east. Notably, the system is still open in all directions. These two holes were drilled in a westerly direction from well to the east of the location of previously announced hole 13 and intersected the mineralization at shallower depths than the mineralization in discovery drill hole 13.
