Hole VIO17-01, drilled into the "VIO" zone, which is over 4 kilometers east of the Iceberg gold deposits, returned 33.5 meters (110 feet) of 0.65 grams/tonne gold and 5.5 grams/tonne silver starting at 99.2 meters and includes 9.1 meters (30 feet) of 1.8 grams/tonne gold and 17.6 grams/tonne silver.

"This is an exciting new development for building potential gold resources at Red Hill."
