The drill program on its fully owned Sturec gold project in Slovakia is now in full swing and although it is too early to expect assay results, Metalstech (MTC.AX) already provided a quick interim update after the drill bit intersected visible gold in hole 17. This hole is an infill drill hole meant to follow up on hole 14 where Metalstech encountered 10 meters of almost 17 g/t gold within a broader interval of 43 meters of 4.88 g/t gold and 11.8 g/t silver.
Hole 17 is an underground drill hole, drilled from Drill Chamber 2, and the hole is located close to the pit outline used in the 2021 mineral resource update As you can see on the image above, the location of hole 17 is important as it will basically be able to validate the findings in hole 10, 13, 14 and perhaps even hole 5 which ended at the bottom of the pit outline.
We will obviously have to wait for the official assay results from the lab which could be expected in a few weeks.
