The Urumalqui Vein mineralization is open along strike and at depth, and the style of mineralization (low sulphidation, vein-style, epithermal) can reach depths of 400 to 600 metres. The Company is proceeding with an environmental permit application to initiate a Phase I infill drilling program in early 2011.
