Chris Donaldson, President and CEO of Valkea Resources (TSX.V:OZ - OTCQB:OZBKF - FSE:S600) joins me to focus on the results from the inaugural drill program at the Paana Project in Finland's Lapland Greenstone Gold Belt. With nearly 2,000 meters drilled across six holes, all displaying gold mineralization

Chris discusses the three main objectives of the program: confirming high-grade gold zones, expanding known gold footprints, and refining geological models. 

We explore significant details about the key zones of interest, the Koivu Zone and the Honka Zone, highlighting specific drill results such as 15 meters of 3.43 grams per ton in the Koivu Zone. The market's positive response is touched upon, along with insights into the strategic context of continuing exploration in an area neighboring major operations like Agnico Eagle's Kittila Mine. 

I ask about the next steps for the Company, which will include data analysis for new targets and plans for additional drilling before summer, as well as potential collaborations and joint ventures.

Any follow up questions for Chris can be emailed to me directly at [email protected].
