To date, approximately 14,600 meters of drilling have been completed on the Moroy property as part of the ongoing 60,000 meter drilling campaign intended to increase the mineral resource in this area.
All of the drill holes contain gold and some have intersected up to three different gold intersections. The drilling campaign continues while interpretations are underway to evaluate the structural controls associated with the gold zones.
Metanor estimates that the mineralized intercepts’ true thicknesses are about 60 to 80% of the drill cores. A capping of 31 g/t was used or 1 Au ounce. Metanor uses a rigorous, industry-standard, QA/QC program.
The samples were assayed by fire-assay at the Metanor assay lab. Blanks, duplicates and certified reference standards are inserted into the sample stream to monitor laboratory performance.
The quality control program of the assay results (QA/QC) adopted by Metanor includes a minimum of 10% of controlled assays being conducted as well as verification by an independent ALS-certified assay laboratory in Val-d’Or, Québec. Results of the spot checks were consistent with those reported.
