Project Timeline
Year 1: Exploration & Bulk Sampling Pilot• Increase resource ounces • Property wide exploration (porphyry target)• Permitting work; baseline studies• Mobilize small scale production equipment,
initiate 25 tons per day seasonal operation• Update technical report with drill results &
resource estimate• Secure additional gold projects in predeter-
mined locations
Year 2: Exploration & Pre-Feasibility• Continue drilling – expand resource at
depth and along strike• Ben Vein exploration -tunnel to de-
velop underground access for drilling and development
• Permitting work; baseline studies• Initiate exploration and development
at other locations.
Year 3: Feasibility & Development• Continue to scale up development
and exploration
