Boa Vista Project
The Boa Vista Project is a large property (12,889 Ha) located in the Tapajós region of northern Brazil with extensive historic alluvial and lateritic workings. The maiden mineral resource estimate on the VG1 deposit was completed shortly (16 months) after the discovery was reported in March 2011 (News Release 5/11 and 6/11). The mineral resource estimate outlined an inferred resource of 8.47 Mt grading 1.23 g/t gold (336,000 oz) at a 0.5 g/t cut-off and is based on shallow (<150 m depth) and limited drilling (15 holes in 3,007 m) and trenching (14 trenches in 2,229 m) of the eastern 600 m of an overall 2,000 m gold-in-soil anomaly.
