Episode notes
Pre-Collars Returned Unexpected Shallow Hits
- The company pre-collared two holes (TC01, TC02) and left casing to later core down into the CRD target.
- TC01 still returned a shallow 23m interval of ~40 g/t AgEq, surprising as a bonus ahead of deep drilling.
Shallow Hits Validate Deep Target
- Aztec reported initial shallow RC successes while reserving deeper core testing for a major CRD target beneath Contention.
- These pre-collar RC results validate the system and justify stepping out and testing the deep resistivity low at ~600m.
High-Grade Southern Extension Intercept
- TR03 returned a wide, shallow zone including 6.08m of 456.6 g/t AgEq inside ~50m of ~88.0 g/t AgEq, expanding the Southern Extension.
- The result indicates meaningful growth potential in a previously under-drilled southern area.
