Abstract

The program, which is being carried out by Gold Fields Sudbury Exploration Corp., will consist mostly of surface diamond drilling and completion of a high resolution magnetic survey initiated in 2013. The exploration program is budgeted at $2.2M and will consist of approximately 14,000 metres, mostly targeting either the extension at depth of known gold mineralization or potential new zones in the eastern half of the property. The drilling for extension at depth of known mineralization will be focused on the Augmitto, Gamble Lake and Astoria blocks. More specifically, additional follow-up drilling will be done at Gamble Lake to further define a new sector developing at depth in the west boundary of the Gamble Lake zone. This is where hole 12-GA-593 had intersected 3.7 g/t Au over a core length of 15 metres (press release of December 6, 2012) and where recent drilling by Gold Fields returned 6.03 g/t Au over 11.3 metres.
