QcX Gold Identifies 18 Gold Targets on Fernet West Block, Proximal to the Fenelon Gold Camp and Closes $560,000 Flow Through Financing

17.09.2021  |  Newsfile

Montreal, September 17, 2021 - QcX Gold Corp. (TSXV: QCX) (OTC: QCXGF) (FSE: 21MA) ("QcX" or the "Company") is pleased to announce it has identified 18 targets for gold mineralization on the West Block of its Fernet Project (the "Property" or "Project") in the northwestern region of the Abitibi, Québec. The Fernet Property lies 15km northwest of Wallbridge Mining's advanced Fenelon gold project and 4km north of the Martinière gold project. The targets were generated from an advanced structural and lithological analysis of the property. Data from an airborne magnetics survey flown in January 2021 (please see press release dated January 12, 2021) combined with existing geological data (historic drilling, outcrop mapping, known showings) were interpreted to generate key gold targets. Please see below for map outlining the targets (Figure 2) as well as an individual description of each (Table 1). In addition, the Company wishes to report that all core from the 17 holes drilled on Golden Giant East ("GGEast") and Golden Giant West ("GGWest") blocks have been logged and samples have been sent to the lab for analysis. Results are pending and will be reported once received.

Aaron Stone, Vice President Exploration of QcX, stated, "We are excited by the prospects that the Fernet West block presents to us. Geophysical techniques provide us with a glimpse of the possible structures and geology that lie beneath the surface. This analysis has identified the structural complexity of the Fernet West geology and the great potential for structurally controlled gold mineralization that directly correlates with this. This was a crucial piece of work for us in our exploration strategy at Fernet and will greatly aide in guiding future work on the property."

External geophysicists, AussieCan Geoscience Inc., were engaged to conduct the study which was completed over two phases. Phase 1 consisted of a geophysical driven structural interpretation to outline important structures (faults, folds, intrusions, etc) across the property. Phase 2 incorporated all other available datasets (historical drilling, outcrop mapping, known showings, etc) to further define the structural outlay and develop an in-depth lithological interpretation. With this deeper geological understanding of the project, 18 gold targets were produced based on the environment they lie in (structural complexity, favourable geology, etc). Some of the targets lie structurally along strike from known occurrences and/or deposits (e.g. the Martinière deposit), which bodes well for exploration.

1 Au 2 Major NNE-trending fold of major sheared contact between mafic volcanics and mafic intrusive-magnetic package; along geophysical strike from Martigny A occurrence
2 Au 2 Interpreted shear at major stratigraphic contact between mafic volcanics and felsic tuff; prospective reactive horizon regionally; cross-cutting faults
3 Au 1 Increased magnetic signature in early hinge zone; hangingwall to major early shear zone; cross-cutting faults
4 Au 2 Interpreted shear at major stratigraphic contact between mafic volcanics and felsic tuff; prospective reactive horizon regionally; cross-cutting faults
5 Au 1 Significant sets of NW-trenidng folds at hinge of broad fold structure evident in the regional magnetic data; western and eastern fold limbs are along strike from Lac du Doigt-SE and Martiniere occurrences respectively; cross-cutting faults

The Company also wishes to announce it has closed a non-brokered private placement through the issuance of 3,733,333 flow-through units (each, a "FT Unit") of the Company at a price of $0.15 per FT Unit for gross proceeds of $560,000 (the "Offering").

Each FT Unit is comprised of one common share in the capital of the Company, issued on a "flow-through" basis (each, a "FT Share"), and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"). The FT Shares will qualify as "flow-through shares" within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada). Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to acquire one additional common share (each, a "Common Share") of the Company, to be issued on a non-flow-through basis, at an exercise price of $0.20 for a period of twenty-four months from the date of issuance.

The gross proceeds derived from the sale of the FT Units under Offering will be used for general exploration expenditures on the Company's mineral properties located in Quebec.

In connection with the Offering the Company paid certain eligible persons: (i) a cash commission in the aggregate of $20,999.97; and (ii) an aggregate of 139,999 broker warrants (each a "Broker Warrant"). Each Broker Warrant entitles the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share at an exercise price of $0.20 for a period of twenty-four months from the date of issuance.

In addition, the Company will also issue an aggregate of 1,300,000 options to purchase common shares of QcX Gold, exercisable at a price of $0.15 per share for a period of five (5) years from the date of grant, to certain consultants of the Company. The common shares issuable upon exercise of the options are subject to a statutory hold period of four months and one day from the original date of grant.

About QcX Gold

QcX Gold is exploring for gold and VMS style mineralization on its highly prospective and well-located properties in Québec, Canada. The Golden Giant Project is located in the James Bay region of Québec, only 2.9 km away from Azimut Exploration Inc.'s Patwon discovery on their Elmer gold project. The Fernet Project is located in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt in the Province of Québec and is contiguous with Wallbridge Mining Company Ltd.'s Fenelon/Martinière property. Both properties are in close proximity to major discoveries which bodes well for exploration.
