• Induced Polarization survey includes a line through the trenching area

• Low chargeability suggests gold mineralisation will be oxidised which is favourable for metallurgy

• A 100m deep by 300m wide resistive zone (due to quartz?) immediately beneath the trenches will be the first drill target

Cuale – Exploration Underway

• Community engagement• Soil sampling and mapping started• Geophysics and 650 metres of trenching May-June 2018• ~3,000 metres of drilling for summer once permits received

SUMMARY• Early stage of exploration. Drilling planned for summer 2018.• Consistent, high grade mineralization at surface with IP giving

confidence in depth potential• Classic high sulphidation textures, geochemistry and

alteration• La Gloria Zone a small part of a larger alteration zone that

requires further exploration
