Drillhole SU-632 was collared in the western part of the Valley of the Kings. Directional drilling, which enables offset holes to be drilled downhole from a single surface drillhole, is underway as part of a deep infill drilling program in the Valley of the Kings in support of the mine plan for the Brucejack Project. Drilling is being conducted on a portion of Inferred and Indicated mineral resources from the December 2013 Valley of the Kings Mineral Resource estimate below the 1345 meter level. A second drill is currently dedicated to geotechnical drilling at site.
