The intercept, which reads 4.92 g/t gold over 28.65 meters, including 11.39 g/t gold over 9.1 meters, was recovered during the initial drill of seven holes at the site. The discovery was made during the company’s maiden 5,000-metre program, where all holes returned gold values supporting the continuity of the B14 gold-bearing structure.

Co-Diagnostics (NASDAQ:CODX) Inc has revealed that CoSara Diagnostics Pvt Ltd., its joint venture for manufacturing and sales in India, has received clearance from the Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) in India to manufacture and sell its Saragene Dengue and Chikungunya Multiplex RT-PCR test as an in vitro diagnostic (IVD).

Todos Medical Ltd. (OTCQB:TOMDF) has announced positive clinical validation data for its 3CL protease biomarker assay TolloTest in a clinical study of coronavirus (COVID-19) patients.
