According to initial scale mapping and sampling, the project returned anomalous gold sample results of 1g/t to 4g/t gold, which are over a strike distance of 2km and from numerous sub-parallel fault zones and hydrothermal breccia veins located structurally below an interpreted silica-cap.

The faults are located adjacent to a pophyritic, pyrite-sericite altered quartz-diorite intrusion that returned anomalous gold values of up to 0.3 g/t gold in grab samples.

The 40-year term Dzoti licence is conditional on the submission of an environmental impact assessment and interim report on potential resources within 24 months.
