Mr. Roman noted that wider mineralized zones encountered in the bulk sample to date (see News Release of June 28, 2016) mean the bulk sample is ahead of schedule and is providing valuable insight into the grade and continuity of the Sugar Zone deposit. Mr. Roman also reported preliminary results from the recently completed Crone Geophysics survey and noted a number of strong, untested resistivity anomalies within the 2.3km x 1.5 km survey area between the Sugar Zone and Wolf Zone deposits.
