The encouraging visual results remain unassayed, leaving laboratory results as the next critical test of grade and continuity.

Altair Minerals has secured an exclusive option over eight permits adjoining its South Oko project in Guyana, adding 29km2 and lifting exposure to the Oko Shear Contact to about 18km of strike.
