Fokus Mining Corporation announced that hole GA-22-63 intersected 1.03 g/t Au over a hole length of 229.5 metres including a 130.50 metre zone grading 1.41 g/t Au, which also included a 43.5 metre zone grading 2.04 g/t Au. This gold-bearing section, traced from 117 to 346.5 metres along the hole, is located in an intermediate hematite- and sericite-rich and sometimes porphyritic intrusive. Very fine pyritization forms the bulk of the mineralization.  Three other holes drilled in the same area also intersected several significant gold zones in the same geological context.

GA-22-60 revealed a 24-metre zone grading 1.37 g/t Au followed by a second gold zone of 31.50 metres grading 1.31 g/t Au while hole GA-22-61 graded 1.25 g/t Au over a width of 13.5 metres. Finally, GA-22-62 returned 40.50 metres grading 1.15 g/t Au. It should be noted that these holes also intersected several other small significant gold zones throughout the drilling.  The main objective of this 4-hole, 1,150 metre program, completed in December 2022, was to assess the continuity at depth of the RB Zone.

The results obtained from the entire program demonstrate this possibility. A second drilling program of approximately 1,200 metres was started around January 8 and will be completed in the next few days on the same showing. Also consisting of four holes, this one is designed to test the possible extension of the RB zone to the east as well as its further extension at depth. The RB zone was outlined in 2021 by drill holes GA-21-28, GA-21-45, GA-21-46 and GA-21-49.
