==> picture [308 x 159] intentionally omitted <==

EPT1716 – ~120m - Carbonate with abundant course pyrite and with chalcopyrite intergrowths

EPT1716 is the first of four diamond holes to be drilled in the current campaign at BM7. The core photos are within a zone between 104m and 124m where visible copper sulphides including chalcocite, bornite and chalcopyrite have been identified. The photos are from the visually strongest mineralised interval within that zone between 104m and 124m. Drill hole EPT1716 is still in progress. Samples will be dispatched for laboratory analysis upon completion of the hole.
