This gold-bearing section, traced from 117 to 346.5 metres along the hole, is located in an intermediate hematite- and sericite-rich and sometimes porphyritic intrusive. Very fine pyritization forms the bulk of the mineralization.
Three other holes drilled in the same area also intersected several significant gold zones in the same geological context. GA-22-60 revealed a 24-metre zone grading 1.37 g/t Au followed by a second gold zone of 31.50 metres grading 1.31 g/t Au while hole GA-22-61 graded 1.25 g/t Au over a width of 13.5 metres. Finally, GA-22-62 returned 40.50 metres grading 1.15 g/t Au. It should be noted that these holes also intersected several other small significant gold zones throughout the drilling.
The following table presents the main results:

"We are very pleased with these results, which suggest that the RB zone may extend to the surface. Although further drilling is required to confirm this hypothesis, this possibility is very promising. This would be even more interesting as it would open up other prospects for the
