![Everton announces 2,500 m of Diamond Drilling on the Opinaca B Gold Property, Eleonore Mining Camp, Quebec](https://www.goldseiten.de/media/goldseiten-news.jpg)
The aim of the 7-hole drilling program is to test two targets with strong gold discovery potential: the Dominic area and the Fishhook structure. Hecla greatly improved the definition of these targets during the 2016 program, which included a detailed interpretation of previous magnetic data and comprehensive field work (see press release dated January 23, 2017).
The Opinaca B Property, comprising 248 claims covering 129.7 km2, is situated in a highly prospective part of the Eleonore mining camp where significant drilling results have been recently released for the Eleonore South Property (Azimut-Goldcorp-Eastmain JV) and the Cheechoo Property (Sirios Resources) (see attached figure).
Hecla has the option to acquire a 50% interest in the Opinaca B Property by incurring $6 million in exploration work. This expenditure should be complete by November 2017. Following this first option, Hecla was granted a second option according to the terms disclosed in Azimut's press releases of September 16, 2010 and April 21, 2016.
This press release was prepared by geologist Jean-Marc Lulin, acting as Azimut's Qualified Person under NI 43-101.
