Diamond drilling at Queens Gift and Ewen is also expected to be completed at the same time weather permitting. From Isa North, Queens Gift Prospect, best results include 38 metre at 426 ppm U3O8 from 197 metre. Downhole gamma results (eU3O8) from RC drilling on the Slance NW Prospect has returned significant mineralisation, namely, 28 metre at 1,074 ppm eU3O8 from 107 metre and 15 metre at 661 ppm eU3O8 from 155 metre. At Isa West, the second phase of RC drilling is now complete. Of significance are the final deep intercepts at ± 200 metre vertical depth at the Thanksgiving and Bambino Prospects. Thanksgiving Prospect intersections include, 18 metre at 454 ppm U3O8 from 246 metre and from the Bambino Prospect intersections include, 15 metre at 509 ppm U3O8 from 194 metre.
