Company Update

 

Honey Badger completed surface exploration work this fall on its Thunder Bay Silver-Cobalt Project, located southwest of Thunder Bay, Ontario. This program was a follow-up on the results of the Company’s 2018 and Spring 2019 drilling programs that identified high-grade silver mineralization below the lower-most level of the Beaver Mine (682 g/t silver over 2.4 metres, including 1,254 g/t silver over 1.2 metres) and discovered a wide and near-surface zone of high-grade cobalt mineralization in the Rove Shale (0.26% Cobalt over 10.8 metres) near the mine. Results of the Fall 2019 prospecting work on the extensive 37,850 hectares property are pending. The Company is currently devising its 2020 exploration program that will focus on expanding the high-grade intercepts discovered to date and further develop the Thunder-Bay Silver-Cobalt Project.
