This is what is referred to as a "fuckton" of drilling.

Recent raise means $94m in cash to drill so could be another pivotal year in exploration for BNZ.

Disc: Not held, but BNZ are on my watchlist. As @BkrDzn said, it's a "lot" of drilling. To spend that sort of money on this sort of drilling they'd have to reckon they have very good odds of finding something substantial. A 1km RC drillhole!! That is epic!!

1000m+ RC hole is absolutely nuts and I am still not entirely sure how they are pulling it off. Quite often the limiting factor for RC is water saturation in the rock in which if the rock is too wet, RC struggles in which case you switch to diamond. I can't really say I recall seeing RC drilling done deeper than 300-400m before.
