Widths are drilled widths, not true widths, as a full interpretation of the actual orientation of mineralization outside of the Mineral Resource is not complete.

Key Points: 
  • Widths are drilled widths, not true widths, as a full interpretation of the actual orientation of mineralization outside of the Mineral Resource is not complete.
  • Aftermath also elected to make the first of these payments, C$3 million, in the form 50% cash and 50% in Aftermath common shares.
  • The unsampled core was returned to the core box and stored at the Challacollo core yard.
  • The half core sample was shipped to ALS laboratory in Copiap\xc3\xb3, under the supervision of Aftermath field staff, for sample preparation.
