  • Diamond drilling program concluded for 2023 with 15,432m completed over 28 drill holes

  • Successfully tested many geological and geophysical targets (MLEM, BHEM, fixed-loop EM, gravity and magnetics)

  • Remaining assay results expected within the next month

  • Assays and visual observations indicate widespread disseminated sulphide mineralization, increasing the known footprint of the prospective host rocks[1]

  • Approximately 30m of semi-massive and nettextured sulphides intersected in HOT003

  • Step-out hole (HOT026)500m south of MRE along strike of the Hotinsaajo 2km long magnetic anomaly intersected disseminated sulphides and 7.5m of semi-massive and net-textured sulphides (based on visual logging)

1 In relation to the disclosure of visual mineralisation, the Company cautions that visual estimates of sulphide and oxide material abundance should never be considered a proxy or substitute for laboratory analysis. Laboratory assay results are required to determine the widths and grade of the visible mineralisation reported in preliminary geological logging. The Company will update the market when laboratory analytical results become available.
