(Kitco News) - Dolly Varden Silver announced a 30,000-meter drill program in May.
On Tuesday president and CEO Shawn Khunkhun spoke with Kitco.
Dolly Varden Silver (TSXV: DV) is a mineral exploration company focused on advancing its 100%-held Kitsault Valley project, located in the Golden Triangle of British Columbia. The 163-square-kilometer Kitsault project, which is about 25 kms by road from tide water, includes the silver and gold resources of Dolly Varden and Homestake Ridge, along with the past producing Dolly Varden and Torbrit silver mines.
Last year Homestake Ridge portion was acquired from Fury Gold Mines.
Khunkhun said his company is looking to expand known deposits between the newly-acquired projects along the Kitsault Valley trend.
The company currently has three drill rigs running on its projects.
"The real game changer and unanswered question that we're seeking to answer this year: we've newly acquired three of the deposits, so we've got four in the south and three in the north. There's about a five-and-a-half kilometers in between those deposits that we're looking to explore, unlock and see if we can unearth a large silver-gold deposit."
