For an upfront option payment of only US$300,000 \u2013 we think we\u2019ve got a very good option.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Looking ahead <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The company intends implementing a drilling program to confirm the presence of the high-grade mineralisation that has been delineated previously.<\/p>\n<p>It will also carry out extensional drilling to explore for extensions of, and thicker zones of, high-grade mineralisation at depth.<\/p>\n<p>Drilling will begin in the coming weeks once the program at the Discus target and adjacent Red Cloud deposit concludes.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p><span class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em>This article was developed in collaboration with New World Resources, a Stockhead advertiser at the time of publishing. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>This article does not constitute financial product advice.
