Project Update

Brixton has commenced a phase one drill program consisting of 2,500 metres of NQ sized core drilling and surface rock geochemical program at its Langis project in Ontario. This program is designed to confirm historic drill results and test new targets. Based on results of this program, further drilling and IP geophysical surveys may be conducted later this year.

Brixton also completed a phase one soil-rock geochemical program at its Thorn project. A total of 981 soils and 159 rock samples were collected and submitted to ALS Minerals for analysis. The majority of samples were collected within in new area of the property which has not seen any previous exploration called the Chivas Zone. Secondary areas sampled were the Outlaw Zone, Aberlour Zone and Amarillo Creek, where follow-up sampling was conducted on encouraging gold results. Based on the results, further exploration may be conducted later this year.
