Recommendations from the NI 43-101 Report

The author of the NI 43-101, Dr. Robert Page, P.Geo., of independent consulting firm Watts, Griffis and McOuat Limited, has concluded that Aurania’s proposed 2020 exploration program, outlined below, is appropriate for the Project.  The main components are:
  • Complete the reconnaissance stream sediment sampling as the primary field tool to identify additional targets, the priority being to find potentially outcropping gold-bearing systems;
  • Follow-up the geophysical targets identified by Independent Senior Geophysical Consultant, Jeremy S. Brett, who was involved throughout the Company’s heliborne geophysical survey from planning, daily review of the data as it was acquired in the field, to interpretation. He identified 64 individual targets, 31 of which were categorized as high priority for follow-up; 
  • Continue scout drilling the highest ranked of the 20 epithermal gold-silver targets within the extensive epithermal alteration systems at Latorre (where Crunchy Hill and Yawi are located), Apai and Tiria;
  • Continue detailed geological work and field sampling of sedimentary-hosted copper-silver mineralization observed in scattered outcrops over a distance of 23km, to advance these targets to scout drilling;
  • Advance the clusters of copper-gold and copper porphyry targets at Kirus, Jempe, Tsenken and Awacha through more detailed exploration, in preparation for scout drilling; and
  • Undertake similar exploration of the carbonate replacement – style silver-zinc-lead mineralization which has been identified in sporadic outcrops and numerous boulders over a total of 12km in the Shimpia target area.
