All holes are designed to intersect the projected step-out extension of the Southwick vein system beyond the historic mine area. At the southeastern pads, paired holes at -45° and -60° are oriented to intersect the projected vein extension at depth.”

The HQ diamond drill holes are totaling 814.7 metres (2,673 feet) of planned drilling. The Phase III drill collar locations are summarized in Table 1.
