As we have indicated previously, our plans include improving the 2 km ATV access trail to a road to facilitate an exploration program of trenching and drilling of this exciting project as well as geological mapping, prospecting and extending the +30ppb gold-in-soil geochemical anomaly where it remains open at both ends beyond the current 3 km strike length.  Despite the quality of results discovered to date, a significant amount of the 24 km property strike length remains unexplored."
