High-Grade with Significant Potential
Five Prospects Within ~5-Kilometre Radius of Central Point
• In just one year, there have been three discoveries at Golden Hill
• To date Golden Hill has produced a series of high-grade, near-surface drill results at the first five prospects:
– Ma– Jackhammer Hill– Peksou– C-Zone– Nahiri
• The close proximity of these targets and prospects lends itself to a central mill/multi-deposit operation similar to Sabodala and Wahgnion
