Item 7.01 | Regulation FD Disclosure. |
On January 9, 2008, the Registrant announced it has drilled or washed out 2,255 feet of hole with an average penetration rate of 161 feet per shift, during the month of December. During the washout of hole HELV-01, the Registrant’s diamond drill cut into the side of the distorted old hole and continued to a depth of 485 feet where the hole was lost. Significant intervals of bleaching, alteration, disseminated and vein iron pyrite and a five foot interval of collapse breccia, with fine disseminated iron pyrite in the matrix, were encountered. There was no uranium mineralization, but this is the type of halo alteration and mineralization found around previously producing ore bodies. Management considers this a positive indicator and believes that this demonstrates the Registrant is on the right track.
