    Drilling or seismic grid 1. Spacing of new gridlines outside the area enclosed by hachured lines on the attached map (see Figure 1: Exploration Area) is not less than 500m apart. 2. Spacing of new gridlines inside the area enclosed by hachured lines on the attached map (see Figure 1: Exploration Area) may be reduced to 25m. 3.
