This portion of the work program, Phase 1, will focus on three areas; 1. Extending the high-grade underground portion of Pegmont Zone 3, centred around a 'Z' fold - where metals have accumulated into the upper- and lower-fold hinge. Eleven holes are planned for a total of 3,100 metres. The first hole has been completed; intersecting lead-zinc mineralisation as anticipated. The program is following up on a diamond core hole drilled for the PEA geotechnical engineering study which intersected high grade mineralisation: PVRD154 15.92 m @ 9.07% Pb, 3.04 % Zn.

At the high grade Killer Bore Zinc prospect located 5km's from Pegmont, optioned from Sandfire Resources for 100%, the Company is planning a ten-hole, 2,300 metres program designed to scope out an initial volume centred around three historic drill intersections in two separate locations: AND041: 3 m @ 15.44% Zn and 0.25% Cu ANP418: 4 m @ 8.26% Zn and 0.51% Cu and separately diamond hole DDH01KB001: 4 m @ 10% Zn and 0.2% Pb. The Company is awaiting heritage site clearance for these ten drill pads.

In the shallow portions of the main Pegmont open pit, a total of 40 holes are planned for 2,400 metres, PQ core size. Reverse circulation (RC) holes being followed up include:
