On Clara, previous rock and soil sampling, IP and PIMA results have outlined a large dickite zone which is interpreted to cap a gold-rich silica core. In addition, fault breccia cropping out at Ler Creek assayed 48 g/t Au, was identified as a Dickite anomaly in the Aster evaluation and requires further assessment.
