Cartier Cuts 20.8 g/t Au over 4.0 m at Chimo Mine 500 m below the New Zones 5B4-5M4-5NE

21.05.2020  |  GlobeNewswire

Highlights:

  • Mineralised intersection of 20.8 g/t Au over 4.0 m included within 9.4 g/t Au over 11.0 m, also included within 6.7 g/t Au over 16.0 m, located 500 m below the new Zones 5B4-5M4-5NE in the East Sector of the Chimo Mine Property;
  • The results of this press release, factored with those of the April 7th 2020 and February 18th 2020 press releases, increase the potential for expansion of the resource estimate to date for the new Zones 5B4-5M4-5NE (FIGURE)
  • The Chimo Mine Property hosts three gold-bearing corridors (North, Central and South) that to date host the following mineral resources:
    • 4,017,600 tonnes at an average grade of 4.53 g/t Au for a total of 585,190 ounces gold in the Indicated category;
    • 4,877,900 tonnes at an average grade of 3.82 g/t Au for a total of 597,800 ounces gold in the Inferred category.

VAL-D’OR, Quebec, May 21, 2020 -- Cartier Resources Inc. (TSX-V: ECR) ("Cartier") announces values of 20.8 g/t Au over 4.0 m included within 9.4 g/t Au over 11.0 m, also included within 6.7 g/t Au over 16.0 m, intersected at a distance of 500 m below the new Zones 5B4-5M4-5NE of the Chimo Mine Property, located 45 km east of Val-d'Or.

″ These new results indicate that the gold mineralisation is open in all directions below Zones 5B4-5M4-5NE which have been drilled to date from surface to a depth of 1,3 00 m ″ commented Philippe Cloutier, President and CEO, adding ″ growing the dimensions of the cluster of Zones 5B4-5M4-5NE is an important addition to the development potential of the project ″.

A 12.8 m interval grading 1.1 g/t Au was also intersected 250 m below the new Zones 5B4-5M4-5NE. At 30 m south of Zones 5B4-5M4-5NE, the new Zone 5CE returned a 19.5 m interval grading 1.3 g/t Au indicating the presence of a gold-bearing shoot hosting higher grade gold sections.

The lengths of the mineralized intersections are expressed in lengths measured along the drill core. The estimated true thickness of the mineralized intersections represents approximately 85 to 90% of the measured length.

Recall that, on May 5th 2020, using a price of gold of 1,300 $ US / oz and a cut-off grade of 2.5 g/t Au, the Chimo Mine property now hosts mineral resources of (FIGURE):

Zones 5B4-5M4-5NE and 5CE, situated 450 m east of the underground infrastructures are being drilled in order to increase the resource over a distance of 550 m below known zones. The length of this cluster of gold-bearing zones is known over 1,300 m.

As well, internal engineering studies and tests of industrial sorting of the mineralization are in progress in order to assess possibilities of cost reduction while increasing gold ounce recuperation, which in turn could contribute to increasing the mineral resource of the property. The first internal engineering study was completed with positive conclusions.

About Chimo Mine Project

  • Cartier holds a 100% interest in the property for which 1% NSR ('' Net Smelter Return '') royalty has been granted to IamGold Corporation. No rights of first refusal ('' buy-back '') have been granted.
  • The property, which is accessible year-round, is located near 6 mills in the Val-d'Or area.
  • Fourteen gold zones were exploited by 3 producers between 1964 and 1997 for a production of 379,012 ounces of gold (MERN DV 85-05 to DV-97-01).
  • The mining infrastructure consists of a network of drifts over 7 km, distributed over 19 levels and connected by a 5.5 m x 1.8 m with 3 compartment shaft for a depth of 920 m. The headframe and the surface installations were dismantled in 2008 but the 25 kV power line and the sandpit are still in place.
  • The drilling, completed to date by Cartier on the Chimo Mine property, consists of 121 holes totaling 55,890 m and 20,792 gold samples collected. This work demonstrated the continuity of the main 5B and 5M gold zones under the existing mining infrastructure, explored the extensions of 19 gold zones peripheral to the main zones and explored the extensions of the 7 gold zones that were prioritized; which allowed the discovery of the Zones 5B4-5M4-5NE and 5CE and to develop the potential of Zone 6N1. These areas have excellent potential to deliver future discoveries.

Quality Assurance / Quality Control

The analytical results, derived from Cartier's drilling, were obtained from samples measured along the drill core. NQ core samples are crushed up to 80% passing an 8 mesh and then pulverized up to 90% passing a mesh of 200 mesh. Cartier inserts 5% of the number of samples in the form of certified standards and another 5% in the form of blank samples to ensure quality control. The samples are analyzed at the Techni-Lab laboratory (Actlabs), located in Ste-Germaine-Boul?, Quebec. The 50 g pulps are analyzed by fire assay and read by atomic absorption, followed by gravimetry for results above 5.0 g/t Au. For samples containing visible gold, 1000 g of rock are analyzed by the '' Metallic Sieve '' method.
