![Sirios Resources Inc: New Gold Zones Intersected by Drilling at Cheechoo, Close to Eleonore](https://www.goldseiten.de/media/goldseiten-news.jpg)
As for drill hole #30 that is located at more than 650 metres from drill holes #20 and 21, and close to drill hole #15 undertaken in 2014, has intersected a zone grading 0.79 g/t over 23.90 metres including 1.78 g/t Au over 3.5 metres centered on a fault. Drill hole #15 was stopped in this fault zone at 72 metres of depth yielding a grade of 1.16 g/t Au over 9 metres at the end of the hole.
Eleven diamond drill holes were completed in last September for a total of 1,962 metres. Note that visible gold was observed in eight of these drill holes. The complete results of the other five drill holes will be released when re-assays will be finished. Two of the five drill holes are located in the same zone of drill holes #18, 20 and 21, while the other three are located between 50 and 150 metres from the latter.

The CHEECHOO gold project is located in Eeyou Istchee James Bay, Quebec, 800 km north of Montreal and less than 10 km from the Eleonore gold mine of producer Goldcorp that has just begun production. This world-class deposit contained 4.03 million ounces of gold and 4.10 million ounces of inferred gold mineral resources (Source: Press release of Goldcorp, March 28 2014). In 2012, Sirios concluded an agreement with Golden Valley Ltd. regarding ownership of CHEECHOO allowing it, to upon completion of certain obligations and counterparts, increase its current interest to 100% (press release dated December 9, 2013). Sirios is the manager of the project.
Assay quality control
For holes #23, 25, 26 and 30, 551 samples representing 682 metres of NQ drill core, were sawed in half, with one half sent to a commercial laboratory for analysis and other half retained for future reference. A strict QA/QC program was followed by integrating blanks and certified reference materials to the drill core samples, all of which were prepared by IOS Services Géoscientifiques inc. of Chicoutimi, and assayed for gold by fire assay and atomic absorption finish (AA24) by the ALS Minerals laboratories in Val d'Or, Quebec. Samples grading more than 3 g/t were re-assayed by fire assay with gravimetric finish. (GRA22).
