During the field due diligence for the acquisition of the Red Brook project, Puma conducted a one-day reconnaissance trenching program to investigate the newly high grade zone. Three different areas were stripped on the high grade massive sulphide zones and more rock samples were collected. The results of the samples collected will be released shortly.
The mineralization is open in all directions. Currently, the planned work will consist of compiling previous work to define additional trenching and diamond drilling targets. The compilation will be used to plan the 2016 summer program.
