Val-d'Or, Quebec / TheNewswire / August 15, 2016, - Knick Exploration Inc. (TSX-V: KNX) is pleased to announce the acquisition of 9 claims to its Trecesson gold, tungsten and base-metal project property area of Trecesson, Quebec. The claims were acquired from a local prospector for 500,000 common share of Knick. The claims are subject to a 2% net smelter return with a buy back of 1% for 1 million dollars.

The claims are located near where in 1935 Nortrac Gold Mines sunk an inclined shaft for 38 meters to the 33 meter level and 330 meters of drifting were completed. A shoot of 2,500 tonnes grading 10.3 g/t gold was removed and an 18 meter by 1.8 meter cut of the vein at this level assayed 14.4 g/t gold. Quebec Mining and Smelting in 1940 noted tungsten in a bulk sample of vein dump material which assayed 6.8g/t gold, no tungsten values reported. The shaft area is referred to as the Chib-Kayrand Mine.

The property is located approximately 12 km north west of the city of Amos and 50 km north-north west of the city of Val d'Or.
