Source: the Genel Arama Dönemi Faaliyet Raporu filed for licence 202300781; assays by ArgeTest Laboratuvarı, Ankara, codes FA02 / GAR01-ext. The licence boundary is 3 separate parcels in the filed KMZ.

The filed reports carry a “muhtemel rezerv” (probable reserve) calculation under Turkish Mining Law 3213. It is not a Mineral Resource or Ore Reserve under JORC or NI 43-101, no Competent or Qualified Person has signed it, and it is neither an estimate of what the ground holds nor a limit on it. The figures are in the data room.
