Both deposits are on the western side of the Hemi project area.<\/p>\n<p>De Grey believes the latest extensional drill results represent further upside to the outstanding financial metrics reported in the DFS which envisaged average annual production of 530,000ozpa over the first 10 years at Hemi at a cost of $1,295\/oz.<\/p>\n<p>And that\u2019s without the any contribution from underground mining or the 2.2 Moz Regional deposits, two major areas of potential upside for the project which is located 85km south of Port Hedland.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe extensions below the Eagle DFS pit and shallower Diucon extensions have the potential to result in a substantial expansion of the current Diucon-Eagle open pit shell outline,\u201d De Grey general manager exploration Phil Tornatora said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn addition to potential resource increases, deeper drilling at Hemi will support our conceptual studies into potential underground mining in the future. RC drilling at Hemi is continuing along the Diucon Thrust north of Crow and extending towards Scooby, aiming to define additional shallow resources.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>New and previously unannounced drilling results at Diucon and Eagle.

Assay results from ten diamond holes which have been completed are pending.<\/p>\n<p>Drilling at Diucon targeted mainly shallow, open-pittable resources along the Diucon Thrust to the west of the Diucon MRE and between the Diucon and Eagle proposed pits.<\/p>\n<p>Encouraging intercepts from the lodes in the hanging wall included 8m @ 1.8g\/t gold from 379m, 5.7m @ 1.6g\/t gold from 405.3m and 16.4m @ 1.9g\/t gold from 446.6m (including 10.6m @ 2.8g\/t gold from 452.4m).<\/p>\n<p>Shallow lodes were also intersected in the hanging wall at Eagle. These lie north of the Diucon Thrust and have now been named the Antwerp Link lodes. Best hits include 15m @ 0.7g\/t gold from 15m, 5m @ 1.6g\/t gold from 278m and 6.5m @ 5.1g\/t gold from 298.1m (including 0.9m @ 33.6g\/t gold from 298.1m).<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Hemi plan.
