9Pimenton Mine Drilling Development
- Diamond drilling in the mine production area
amounted to 3,900 meters over the past year.
Ongoing drilling is dedicated to defining veins
for subsequent exploration and development and
then production, as well as providing solutions
for problems related to mining and for longer
term production planning. At Pimenton we drill
for structure and drift for ore. - The Company has just completed a 600m ramp to
access higher grade ore, 60m below the main 3195
level. These higher grade stopes are now being
prepared for production. Anticipated production
from this area should be within 2 months.

Mobile Metal Ion anomalies. Both holes
encountered strong but uneconomic gold, copper
and molybdenum mineralization beneath the Santa
