Note- Drill results, as reported by Sokomon, are drill widths only, as the information is not adequate to calculate true widths. Analysis techniques are described in the previously quoted press release.
In addition to Sokoman’s drilling, General Copper Gold Corp. drilled four diamond drill holes in 2021. MEK is currently awaiting the data from these 4 holes from General Copper Gold. Once received MEK will complete a full compilation of the drill data, including a 3D model of the gold mineralization. Once completed MEK will look for a partner to continue drill test the wide-spread gold mineralization.
