Auryn Resources Inc. is pleased to announce that the company drilled a 1.5 kilometer gold-bearing hydrothermal system at the Aiviq target. A total of 16 diamond drill holes (4,996 meters) consistently intersected the target structure (Figure 2), with the best intercept being 13.5 meters of 1.54 g/t gold (including 6 meters of 3.3 g/t gold) in hole 12 at the southwest margin of the drilling program, leaving the system open in that direction (Figures 3 – 4). Hole 12 also exhibited the most intense alteration and quartz veining along the system.
