Aleck Hill

Highlights:
Recent initial resource estimate showing

At Aleck Hill, the mineralized zone extends ±800 m along strike with higher-grade material and the old underground workings extending for ± 400 m in the centre. Gold occurs in a zone of pyrite-rich quartz veins striking 150º and dipping sub-vertically. The zone is up to 20 m wide and enclosed in intensely altered volcanic rocks which appear sericitized and carbonatized in hand specimen. Extensive fracturing cemented with calcite is frequently present.

The most recent program at Aleck Hill included a bedrock drilling program of 14 holes (3,103.3m) and a saprolite drilling program of 26 holes (1,932.5 m). The mineralized zone at Aleck Hill is a much smaller volume of rock than at Rory’s Knoll.

The new work has established a coherent zone of gold mineralization in the saprolite and improved the definition of the main zone, but it did not pursue the higher grade shoots at depth.
