The property, located ten kilometers southwest of Kenora, covers several historically defined electromagnetic responses associated with gold in soils geochemistry.
The company said one of these zones has a strike length of at least 640m and up to 210m wide and was tested with three historical drill holes returning grades up to 17.8 gpt gold over 1.52m and 6.30 gpt gold over 6.1m associated with heavy pyrrhotite and pyrite mineralization.
The current drill program will consist of about 1,000m in six to seven holes to test the zone over a 200-250m strike length.
The first hole (ABE-11-01) is located about 100m east of the historical drilling, and although currently still in progress, the top of this hole intersected 39m of massive sulphide (60% pyrrhotite, 5% pyrite) from 1.5m to 40.5m, just below the casing, the company said.
