  • Hole GOS21-86: 393 metres grading 1.41 g/t gold;
  • Hole GOS21-88: 220 metres grading 1.25 g/t gold, including 96 metres at 2.1 g/t;
  • Hole GOS21-92: 304.3 metres grading 1.14 g/t gold; and

For the 2021 delineation drilling program, holes were drilled on 70-metre centres. Two holes were oriented in the opposite direction from the regular pattern to crosscut the central part of the zone, providing additional information on the central breccia core.

Drilling at the Gosselin zone confirms gold mineralization that has been traced over a strike length of 1,400 metres, a width of 400 metres, and a depth extent of 425 metres. The mineralization outcrops below Ducks Lake and remains open to the northeast and southeast as well as at depth.

The inaugural resource estimate for Gosselin is due by the end of the year.
