Although UTD-005 was planned to a final length of 750 metres, Barisan Gold intends on pursuing UTD-005 until the earlier of (i) hitting the limestone contact zone, (ii) drilling out of porphyry mineralization and (iii) reaching the design capacity of the rig, which is 1,750 metres.

In other news, Barisan Gold has received the final assays for UTD-004. There were no new meaningful higher-grade intercepts in the final section from 986 to 1,465 metres. UTD-004 ended up with 1,459 metres of 0.3g/t gold + 0.2% copper, including 30 metres of 1.2g/t gold + 0.4% copper and 202 metres of 0.7g/t gold + 0.4% copper + 0.01% molybdenum. UTD-004 was fully mineralized 6 metres from surface until the end of the hole at 1,465 metres.
