Silver Tiger's CEO, Glenn Jessome, stated, "The Sulphide Zone is alive and wide to the South. We originally thought the Sulphide Zone was thinning after the initial few holes going south. We were wrong. The team saw the geometry at the northern end of the Sulphide Zone forming and projected that to the southern end and drilled to intersect down deeper and east along plan and the first two Holes 455 and 457 nailed it." Mr. Jessome continued: "With these holes we have added an additional 100 metres of down dip extent to east from Hole 428 to 457 and what we thought was a thin zone of a little over a meter went to almost 39 meters of high grade mineralization. Step out drilling now continues south."
