The vein or veins appear to have been intersected in all of the recently completed drill holes with the highlights from recent assay data including the results from drill hole DE-09-26 that include core length intervals of 1.5 metres assaying 1.85 g/t and 2.6 metres averaging 3.03 g/t in the vein zone and a deeper intersection averaging 17.18 g/t over a core length of 3.2metres near the contact of the diorite intrusion.
While the latter intersection is deeper, it should be noted that this intersection is still less than 120 metres below surface, whereas much of Lakeshore Gold’s recent success has resulted from drilling holes to depths of more than 700 metres vertically.
