ROUYN-NORANDA, Québec, Aug. 02, 2024 -- Chibougamau Independent Mines Inc. (CBG-TSX-V in Canada, CLL1-Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Berlin and Lang & Schwarz Stock Exchanges in Germany, CMAUF-OTC in the US), herein called Chibougamau, regrets to inform shareholders that TomaGold Corporations (LOT-TSXV) ("TomaGold") and Chibougamau have mutually agreed today to terminate the letter of intent dated August 11, 2023 pursuant to which TomaGold had an option to acquire Chibougamau's East Block (the "Option"), comprised of 127 mining claims in McKenzie, Obalski, Roy and Lemoine Townships, Québec, as announced on August 14, 2023 and extended as announced in press releases dated February 8, 2024 and April 12, 2024. The parties were unable to reach agreement on final terms that were commercially acceptable to each of them in order to move forward with the East Block Option.
During the periods of extension of the Option, Chibougamau undertook two drill holes on its C3 copper-gold discovery. The deepest hole BJ-23-31 was abandoned at 576 m, 50 metres short of the target due to severe ground conditions. Hole BJ-23-32A was successful in intersecting the zone grading 4.03% Cu, 1.40 g/t Au, 16.01 g/t Ag and 0.015 % Co over a core length of 7 m, at a vertical depth of 230 metres.
Chibougamau remains owner of significant advanced assets within the Chibougamau Mining Camp and the surrounding area. TomaGold intends to proceed with the West Block option as previously reported, Chibougamau having agreed to a 2-month extension to complete the initial exploration expenditures. All other terms of the West Block option remain the same.
