Up-Dip (FIGURES 3, 4, 5)
The up-dip drilling along Joyce, Joyce Splay, Karen, Honeyrunner and Vein 21 has returned significant assay results along a cumulative strike of approximately 1,000 ft (304.8 m). Mineralization has been extended up-dip above the existing mine workings by 50 to 200 ft (15.2 to 61.0 m). Assays suggest mineralization continues with similar grades and widths to what has traditionally been mined along these veins.
South (FIGURE 5)
The drilling to the southwest has shown a cluster of significant assays on previously known and unknown veins. These veins are approximately 200 ft (61.0 m) from current mine workings and will be an area of focus in the 2018 drill program.
Assays were performed by ALS Global of Reno, Nevada and American Assay Laboratories of Sparks, Nevada, as directed under the supervision of Klondex staff. These organizations are ISO 17025 accredited independent laboratories.
