All reported intercepts are approximate true widths.
These intercepts represent the up-dip portion of the main vein near the surface at Philadelphia. Deeper drilling is required to test the down-dip portions of the veins intercepted to date, but this requires additional road work and permitting. Meanwhile drilling has shifted to the vein exposed on the Perry vein as reported in our recent press release dated June 07, 2021.
Results from the 3 core holes and 15 RC holes drilled on the Perry Claim of the Philadelphia Project are pending. Drill samples from the RC drilling campaign on the vein at the Perry claim have been submitted to ALS Global's sample preparation facility in Tucson, Arizona.
QA/QC Program
All assaying was conducted by ALS Global, an independent analytical laboratory. Core boxes and RC cuttings were delivered to the ALS sample preparation facility in Tucson, Arizona, where the core is catalogued, photographed, sawed, and crushed and pulverized. Pulverized splits are sent to the ALS analytical facility in Vancouver, British Columbia for analyses. All material handling is done under a strict chain of custody protocol. Gold is determined by fire assay with an AA finish and silver is determined by ICP-MS methods within a 31-element suite.
The Company maintains its own program of inserting Standard Reference material in the form of standards and blanks to the sampling stream, prior to being shipped to ALS's preparation facility in Tucson, Arizona, in addition to the independent QA/QC protocols of ALS Global.
