Crescent Valley Gold Project News

The Company engaged Zonge International Geophysical Services to conduct an IP/Resistivity geophysical survey on the Company's Crescent Valley Gold Project. The field work has now been completed. Data will be processed and assessed in the coming two weeks to focus drill targeting on the vein-hosted mineralization in this bonanza-type low sulfidation epithermal setting. The Company has already secured a permit to drill targets at Crescent Valley.

Dobbin Gold Project

Mapping and sampling continue by an experienced Nevada-based geologist with extensive familiarity with Carlin-type deposits. The Company will provide a geological, geochemical and structural summary mid-August. Results of the progressive soil sampling campaigns to reproduce the gold anomaly previously identified in the 1980s by Newmont will also be provided at that time along with next steps.

King Solomon Gold Project

Data consolidation, compilation and 3D modelling of previous drilling is in progress so that Company geologists can design next steps which would include field activities and multi-stages of drilling so that permitting can be designed accordingly.
