Jim McDonald, President and CEO of Kootenay Silver (TSX.V:KTN – OTC:KOOYF) joins us to recap the drill results released on September 23rd and outline where the rest of the 20,000 meter drill program will be focused at the Columba Project.

Five drill holes were released, including three infill holes aimed at filling gaps in previous drilling and two step-out holes expanding the strike length of the D vein. Jim highlights the continuity and growth of the D-Vein, which now has a strike length extended to approximately 1,275 meters. Additionally, we explore the potential connection between the D and B veins and discuss the implications for future drilling plans. 

Jim provides a holistic view of the three main veins (D, B, and F) and their potential for resource estimation. He outlines the company’s strategy for using directional drilling to optimize costs and target mineralization more effectively. 

Lastly, we touch upon Kootenay Silver’s financial health, with a current budget of around $7 million and plans to complete a 20,000-meter drill program by the end of the year, aiming for a maiden resource estimate. Make sure to check out the maps and long sections linked below to visualize the drilling results and future targets.
