Exploration summary and outlook

The surface exploration program at Paulsens has unveiled promising results, particularly at the Grey Goose prospect, indicating the presence of a high-grade gold system similar to Belvedere.

With plans for additional RC drilling to follow up on the encouraging results, Black Cat aims to further delineate the extent of the mineralization.
