Other drill holes include LC 21-76 and LC 21-84 where a second altered zone was discovered below granite.

Key Points: 
  • Other drill holes include LC 21-76 and LC 21-84 where a second altered zone was discovered below granite.
  • The presence of a second altered zone below granite is very significant as it increases the potential of Lapon Canyon.
  • Hole LC 21- 84 was lost at 140 meters in intense fracturing, an indicator of potential gold mineralization at Lapon Canyon.
  • Now that the late 2021 drill program assay results have been received, planning of the continuation of drilling at Lapon Canyon is underway.

Follow up drilling also targeted the extensions of the high-grade zones and corridors, both at depth and along strike, as discovered in previous drilling at Lapon Canyon.

Key Points: 
  • Follow up drilling also targeted the extensions of the high-grade zones and corridors, both at depth and along strike, as discovered in previous drilling at Lapon Canyon.
  • Significantly, drilling encountered fresh granite, varying in thickness from 4 to 20 meters overlying the altered and silica rich mineralized zone.
  • The Company also attempted drilling at the Pikes Peak portion of the Lapon Gold Project.
  • The Lapon Gold Project includes Lapon Canyon, the Pikes Peak claims located 4 kilometres to the north, and the Rattlesnake and Range Front claims 3 kilometres to the west and over 600 meters lower than the present drilling at Lapon Canyon.
