Borden Lake Project
Probe has set an aggressive pace, transforming a virtually unexplored property with untapped potential into an important new gold discovery in Ontario in less than 18 months.
Based on 159 holes, the Updated Mineral Resource Estimate released on April 2, 2012, established significant improvement and expansion of the Borden Lake Gold Zone; with almost 70% of the resource in the indicated category.
-- Borden Lake gold zone is estimated to contain a Global Indicated
Resource of 4,051,000 ounces of gold averaging 0.71 g/t gold and an
additional Inferred Resource of 1,796,000 ounces of gold averaging 0.62
g/t gold, at a 0.3 g/t cut-off grade.
-- Borden Lake gold zone estimated to contain a Pit Constrained Indicated
Resource of 2,735,000 ounces of gold averaging 1.04 g/t gold and an
additional Inferred Resource of 683,000 ounces of gold averaging 0.93
g/t gold, at a 0.6 g/t cut-off grade;
-- A distinct, higher-grade zone with an Indicated Resource of 1,498,000
ounces of gold averaging 1.46 g/t gold and an additional Inferred
Resource of 407,000 ounces of gold averaging 1.30 g/t gold, at a 1.0 g/t
cut-off grade, has the potential for alternative development scenarios
with lower CAPEX and less sensitivity to gold price.
With four drills turning and over 240 holes now completed, Probe is focused on expanding and upgrading the deposit while advancing the project towards a potential development stage.
