Abstract

A number of activities were conducted during the reporting period (November 17 2012 to January 30 2014). Results from the 2012 drilling program were received and were used to update the geological model. During 2013, an extensive drilling campaign was conducted. A total of 682 Reverse Circulation (RC) holes were drilled totalling 14,159 metres with 4,671 samples collected. Work commenced also on pre-feasibility and feasibility studies in which 12 mud rotary groundwater monitoring bores were installed in various areas of the leases totalling 297.9m. Ongoing cultural heritage and environmental studies were also initiated and are still in progress. One aerial LIDAR survey was conducted to obtain an updated ortho image and a detailed topographic model.
