In the area of the Morris Shaft, some 600 metres distant from AMC 17, the Engine zone represents a significant component of the resources published by the company. This intersection in AMC 17 and that reported previously in AMC 15, also in the Engine zone and a further 400 metres away from the Morris Shaft, are considered to be highly important to the development of the Parys Mountain property.
On-going review
The company’s geological consultants are currently reviewing and analysing all the results from the drilling programme for AMC15, AMC 16 and AMC 17 including the assay results shown here together with the results from lithogeochemical investigations. It is expected that their conclusions will be reported within the next few weeks.
