All drill holes are vertical and intersections are considered to be close to true widths as the dip of the zone is less than 10 degrees.
Core sample analyses were undertaken by Eastern Analytical Ltd., of Springdale, Newfoundland, an ISO 17025 registered laboratory. As part of a quality control procedure a portion of the samples from the 2018 core drilling have been submitted to a second independent laboratory for check assaying. For which results are awaited.
All these drill holes were drilled in the area of the P-East Zone and were step out holes from the holes drilled in 2017 and earlier in 2018. The zinc mineralization occurs in the form of coarse grained, pale yellow to honey brown coloured sphalerite with more than 30% of the rock being sphalerite in the highest grade intervals. The balance of the rock is limestone or dolostone.
An independent Land Surveyor was engaged after the completion of all the drilling to survey the collars of all the holes drilled by Ubique in 2017 and 2018 as well as the historic holes in the area which were known to have zinc mineralization. These precise collar positions and elevations have allowed a plan and sections to be prepared which have been uploaded to the Ubique website.
The intersection in drill hole UM-25-18 is considered particularly significant as that hole and hole UM-17-18 were drilled 30 metres east of any other drilling and even though hole UM-25-18 did not intersect an extremely rich grading interval it demonstrates that more drilling is needed in it's vicinity to locate a high grade core of the zone. Ubique President, Gerald Harper said that "he was very pleased with the results of the 2018 drilling program as they had demonstrated not only that an extension of the P Zone has been defined over a strike length of 140 metres from the limit of historic mining but that it and other zones were open ended and a drilling program in 2019 is a priority".
