The Company successfully completed a five hole drill program (715 meters) at the McNeilly zone (Colchester Project) last December to test new Induced Polarization (IP) anomalies related to the volcanic massive sulphide copper-gold deposit in central Newfoundland. Previous IP surveys by the Company and historic operators have shown a positive correlation to mineralized zones. Visual inspection of the drill core confirms that disseminated and stringer copper mineralization are associated with the new IP anomalies. Drill core is in the process of detailed logging and assay analysis. Maps detailing the drilling program will be provided upon completion of analysis and assay results.
