This is an important drill program to enhance our geological knowledge of the property, but it is just the beginning," said Gordon McKinnon, President and CEO of Orebodies. "We did not have that much prospecting time last year before the snow came, but in one month we did manage to discover a new gold occurrence (the "Petrant Lake Occurrence"). There is much more to do in terms of additional target generation, as the property is large and covers over 6,800 hectares. We look forward to what can come from a full season of work on the ground."
