Westmount Minerals Completes Soil Sampling Program at the Douay East Gold Project

05.07.2022  |  Newsfile

Vancouver, July 5, 2022 - Westmount Minerals Corp. (CSE: WMC) ("Westmount" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the completion of a soil sampling program on the Douay East property (the "Property"), located in the Abitibi region of western Quebec. A total of 1,016 samples were collected and have been delivered to Activation Laboratories Ltd. ("Actlabs") for Soil Gas Hydrocarbon ("SGH") analyses and interpretation.

The SGH geochemical exploration program is Phase 1 of a 2 Phase exploration program planned for 2022 and consists of 3 target areas on the property comprising 3 separate sampling grids. The targets are structures and structural complexities inferred from the interpretation of the 2021 high resolution airborne magnetic survey and which are assumed to be gold bearing based on historical drilling on the property as well as regional geological compilation. The Company anticipates receiving the results and interpretation report in early August and subject to identifying drill targets, anticipates a drill program to follow shortly thereafter.

David Tafel, CEO and Director of Westmount, commented: "Once we have received the sample results and interpretation of the SGH analyses we will be able to evaluate next exploration steps, which we believe should include an initial drilling program."

The Property, acquired by Westmount in 2021, covers an area of 4,868 hectares and is located in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt ("AGB"), western Québec. With over 100 years of mineral production, the AGB remains a very prolific gold mining district.
