Dave O'Brien, President & CEO commented: "As was the case last year, it's good to be early out of the gate so as to optimize the Companies exploration program for the 2021 season. During last year's program, the Company conducted the same SkyTEM airborne program on about half of the Ruby Creek tenures and Company geologists were impressed with the quality of the data which in many cases led to new discoveries. This year we are planning on conducting this same SkyTEM program on remaining non surveyed key portions of the tenures that warrant such a program."
This geophysical survey is the first component of this year's planned exploration program. This will be followed up with a ground program, IP geophysics on select targets and an inaugural fall drill program subject to possible funding.
The Company is still reviewing and compiling data from the 2020 Ruby Creek exploration program and more updates are forthcoming.
