Sebastiana Target
The Sebastiana Target is approximately 600 metres west of the Animas/Del Norte Discovery, and within the same structure as the Discovery. The area was first noted as a significant target when grab samples from the exposed veins returned values up to 6.1 g/t gold and 917 g/t silver.
Two drill holes thus far, OR-08-144 and OR-08-147, have intersected the vein structure in the subsurface. In both cases significant mineralization was intersected over approximately 1.0 metres (see table below). The mineralized intercepts are 120 metres apart and about 50 to 60 metres below the surface as mineralization is open in all directions. Drilling is continuing to evaluate the potential at this target.
