Recent drilling at the Avan Zone has outlined some new potential lodes that lie parallel and sub-parallel to the current resource.
Base of till testing (156 holes) followed by extensive MEFFA surface till sampling (13,758 samples) combined with automated XRF scanning has led to the outlining of geochemically anomalous areas at Bastuträsk and Sundträsket.
Scout drilling at Bastuträsk to date has outlined a ~300 metre X ~300 metre area, roughly 4.8 kilometres east-northeast from the Avan-Central-Skiråsen zones requiring follow up drill testing.
