At the Palito orebody, seven veins out of the 25 veins that comprise the total geological resource, are now in various stages of development and production. The Pipocas, G3, and Senna veins remain the backbone of our sources of ore, with smaller contributions from the newly developed Jatoba, Mogno, Zonta and G1 veins. As was reported in the Company's second quarter operational update, the G3 vein has been intersected on the -50mRL, the lowest level in the mine, and development on this level has been on-going through the third quarter. The mineralised vein remains strong, with very good grades being encountered. The Pipocas vein is in development on the 30mRL and 0mRL levels, with deepening underway to access the -30mRL level.
