Esperanca South (ES) Higher grade paleochannels have been identified and mapped: to be used for focused drilling down dip of ES and Arrias Strike extension potential: to the south and north of Esperanca South

Untested gold-in-soil geochemical anomalies. Current outcrop represents the rim of a large basin and therefore there are deep targets for both down-dip paleoplacer and hydrothermal targets.
