It is important to note that the Party Wall is open along strike and at depth. Also, these results are in areas that were not previously mined,\u201d said Gold Candle COO Leon Leblanc. \u201cThe team completed key milestones with the release of Kerr-Addison\u2019s updated mineral resource and the initial resource on the Geminid nickel zone providing us with a strong base as we move forward. I\u2019m excited to see the team executing on our ambitious 12-month exploration plan aiming at expanding the current resource away from the historical Kerr-Addison mine and looking across our property for new discoveries. The Company is ramping up exploration at the project with over 50,000 metres of drilling planned for 2025.
