 Hi, I'm Chris Thompson from Investor Intel and today I'm speaking with Paul Tenure who is VP Exploration at True Precious Metals Corporation. The ticker is TRU on the Toronto Venture Exchange. True had some exciting news this week about some channel sampling at its Golden Rose project in Newfoundland, but before we dive into those results for investors that might not know True, Paul, can you give us a little bit of background on the project? Sure, nice to see you, Chris. So True acquired the Golden Rose project from a deal with Altius Resources back in 2021 and it's been focused on gold and copper exploration in the area. The project is located along the Cape Ray Valentine Lake Shear Zone between Marathon Mining's Valentine Lake project, the Valentine Gold project, and Matador Mining's Cape Ray project in all in central Newfoundland. So we've been focused again on gold and copper recently doing some drilling, sorry some channel sampling in Mark's Pond area and also we did some drilling in 2022 in the Jacob's Pond area as well. Great, the Marathon Gold Valentine Gold project is a fairly large resource. I think it has close to 4 million ounces and I think Matador has almost a million ounces. So you're in a good location. Geologically, does the structure run along through your project? Yes, it does. So the Cape Ray Valentine Lake Shear Zone does run through various blazes of the Shear Zone as well. So most of our exploration is targeting around where we think the Shear Zone is passing through. Most of the work we've done has been around soil geochemistry surveys and geophysics to determine where the best places are to actually do more advanced exploration such as drilling. And as you mentioned, you required the project in 2021 and 2022 just to remind us again exactly what you accomplished from an exploration deliverables. Yep, so again, soil in rock sampling and prospecting was part of the program. We also did an IP survey over the Jacob's Pond area which eventually led to, in combination with all that data, led to drilling at Jacob's Pond and also in the South Woods Lake area and that was in early to mid 2022. After that we and we discovered some significant copper intercepts, especially at Jacob's Pond, which some sample interests, some drill interests were over 1% copper. And then a later part of 2022, sort of late summer and fall, we switched gears over to our option ground at Mark's Pond and Ridge House, which is the gold focused area. And we did a trench, we reopened a trench there in channel sampling and that's what led to these, we first reported rock sample results, grabbed sample results, which were very high-grading gold. And then after that, we just recently released those channel sample results that were also very high-grade. So let's talk about those channel sample results. That's from the Mark Pond area on the Golden Rose project. You had some fairly high-grade samples from 23.5 grams per tonne gold all the way up to over 57 grams per tonne gold over two meters. Can you just explain exactly what channel sampling is and what impressed you about these results? Yeah, so we knew we were going to go back in and sort of reopen an old trench that done by a previous operator. We knew that from gold panning from our prospectors and also from soil sampling that we're seeing high gold anomalies, golden soil anomalies. So what our crew did is basically reopened it. We had an excavator build up the trench. We also extended the trench at at least 150 meters to the north. And then basically what we did after that is cleared off all the soil until within the trench and got it down to a bedrock. And channel sampling is basically just cutting a sample into the bedrock at discreet intervals. We did it anywhere from 0.5 meter to 1 meter. And you're basically collecting a sort of few centimeter wide sample, almost like what you would see in drill core, except at that surface. So we did that and then we basically mapped and sampled it. And then we also did a full QAQC program. So just like you would with drilling, we inserted blank standards and we did duplicates and set all that in for assays. So that's basically channel sampling is almost like a horizontal drill hole sort of cutting through, but it's in bedrock. So we did all our best we could to clean the sample to make sure there was no contamination from soil until above it to give it as clean a sample as possible before we bagged it and sent it to the lab. And so when you're doing these channel samplings you're at surface, that means that the deposit, the mineralization is coming to the surface. So do you feel that this is going to be indicative of the actual deposit itself? You might have some additional spots where it's close to surface and might be mining for it later on a little bit easier. Yeah. So what we're seeing is that to the south, there was the Marks Pond Gold Zone with 130 meters to the south, which was also it was intersected through drilling by produce operator. So what we're anticipating and now this new zone, which we're calling the Northcock Gold Zone, is another parallel, what we call a parallel structure. The Northcock Gold Zone so far we're seeing it as about two to three meters wide, very high grade as we saw in the results. And so what we're anticipating is that and we managed to get a fair bit done, but we ran into winter conditions and couldn't continue. So there's still a fair bit of sampling that needs to be done further down the trench. There's another sort of, we did take some samples, but there's probably a good 150 meters worth of sampling that still needs to be done. And we did see indications of the sort of same graphitic shifts where we saw the high gold graze. We're seeing that further down in the trench. So our plan is to continue to sample that and clean it out and sample it and look for additional gold intercepts further down the trench. In addition, the Northcock Gold Zone south, what we did is we actually extended the trench along strike of the zone, about a total of 23 meters. And we did see gold, we did see samples asking back with gold on either end of that. So it's open on both sides. So we would probably continue to extend that. We don't know how long yet, how much yet, but there's definitely indications that it's not just within this 23-meter zone that it continues to the northeast and to the southwest. Great. And you did a little bit of a financing before Christmas. I'm assuming you're going to use some of these funds to do some further exploration into 2023. What have you guys sort of planned for the first part of the year that's going to generate some news flow that investors can look forward to? Yeah. So you're right, we did a flow-through financing just a little over 500,000. And that's focused on critical minerals. So that's going to be focused on the Jacob's Pond area where we are seeing high copper numbers. And in the spring, as soon as the snow, and literally as soon as the snow melts and we're able to get back in there, we're literally going to go back into the trench and continue the work that we couldn't do at the end of the fall. And then that, as I mentioned earlier, is going to be to complete sampling of the trench, looking for the parallel structures further to the north, also extending along the North Cockville Zone. It's also going to require probably some additional gold panning and prospecting alongside the trench on either side. Because we really only scratched the surface when we started. So when we got some excellent results for such a short period of work, probably about three weeks of work. So we're very excited by that because and we anticipate to see more as we go along. Well, that's great. It looks like there's going to be lots of activity for this year. And you have an interesting project with those high grade channel samples. It should do well to gain interest from investors who like the gold space. And the copper on that, you know, for the battery metal space will also be getting some eyeballs from those types of investors. Thanks for your time, Paul, today. And I look forward to following your company's progress. Great. Thanks very much, Chris. Appreciate it.
