Amex Expands Eastern Gold Zone to Depth and Along Strike at Perron

30.04.2019  |  GlobeNewswire

MONTREAL, April 30, 2019 - Amex Exploration Inc. (“Amex or the Company”) (AMX: TSX-V; FRA: MX0) is very pleased to announce that ongoing drilling of the Eastern Gold Zone (“EGZ”) at the Perron project (“Perron”) continues to intersect high grade gold mineralization in additional step out drillholes.

The current results include several high grade intersects, including 42.81 g/t Au over 0.50 m and 32.13 g/t Au over 0.60 m in PE-19-37 and 45.57 g/t Au over 0.50 m in PE-19-42. These holes are some of the deepest that the Company has drilled to date on High Grade Zone (“HGZ”) of the EGZ. The intersected mineralization, which is characteristic of the HGZ, consists of two gold-bearing quartz veins located on either side of a narrow weakly mineralized mafic intrusive crosscutting a large unit of silicified rhyolite. These two quartz veins typically contain sphalerite, pyrite, and visible gold as coarse grains, flakes, or specs. Additional gold-bearing intersections are detailed in Table 1 and shown in Figure 1 and 2.

“Amex continues to intersect excellent gold grades in the Eastern Gold Zone. To date, more than 11 holes have interested the HGZ with values greater than one ounce per tonne of gold, over the entire width of one or both gold-bearing quartz veins, over a vertical depth of 425 metres. Each drill hole targeting the zone has intersected the two veins, which is especially encouraging as we test the system to depth. Further, the system is showing good continuity and very little indication of post-mineralization deformation, which is highly beneficial for exploration targeting and potential future development,” commented Jacques Trottier, Ph.D., Executive Chairman of Amex Exploration.

About the Eastern Gold Zone
The EGZ was discovered in December of 2017 during a regional exploration drilling campaign. The discovery hole, PE-17-03, identified two zones of near-surface mineralization, called the High Grade Zone and the Low Grade Zone, which returned values including 12.22 g/t Au over 4.66 metres and 0.81 g/t Au over 76.50 metres, respectively. Follow-up drilling in 2018 in drill hole PE-18-17 intersected values including 269.23 g/t Au over 1.35 metres and 0.74 g/t Au over 20.75 in the High Grade Zone and Low Grade Zone, respectively. Following this, an aggressive exploration program totalling approximately 3,000 metres targeting the High Grade Zone was completed, from which assays have returned grades including 393.33 g/t Au over 1.70 metres in PE-19-22, 39.58 g/t Au over 0.75 metres in PE-19-23, 214.71 g/t Au over 0.65 metres in PE-19-24, 56.75 g/t Au over 8.50 metres in PE-19-27, 89.59 g/t Au over 1.15 metres in PE-19-31 and 32.11 g/t Au over 7.20 metres in PE-19-33. Following the completion of the 3,000 metre campaign, the Company has recently begun a 10,000 metre program to begin testing the system to depth.

Qualified Person
Maxime Bouchard M.Sc.A., P.Geo. (OGQ 1752), and Jérôme Augustin Ph.D., P.Geo, (OGQ 2134), Independent Qualified Persons as defined by Canadian NI 43-101 standards, have reviewed and approved the geological information reported in this news release. The drilling campaign and the quality control program have been planned and supervised by Maxime Bouchard and Jérôme Augustin. The quality assurance and quality control protocol includes insertion of blank or standard every 10 samples on average, in addition to the regular insertion of blank, duplicate, and standard samples accredited by Laboratoire Expert during the analytical process. Gold values are estimated by fire assay with finish by atomic absorption and values over 3 ppm Au are re-analysed by fire assay with finish by gravimetry by Laboratoire Expert Inc, Rouyn-Noranda. Samples containing visible gold mineralization are analyzed by metallic sieve. For additional quality assurance and quality control, all samples were crushed to 90% less than 2mm prior to pulverization, in order to homogenize samples which may contain coarse gold. Core logging and sampling was completed by Laurentia Exploration (Maxime Bouchard M.Sc.A, P.Geo, Jérôme Augustin Ph.D., P.Geo and Alizée Lienard M.Sc.A., GIT).
