Nantais Property

The Hamelin Property is located on the north shore of Lake Nantais in Quˆ©bec’Äôs Nunavik region. The properties cover approximately 628.5 hectares distributed on 15 map-designated claims (CDC’Äôs) ) within the NTS sheet 35A/13 boundaries. Access to the property can only be made using a helicopter when transiting through Kuujjuaq.

This property was previously explored for gold and was briefly visited by the past title-holder that discovered a few interesting gold showings, of these, the Nantais 1 showing (4.7 g/t Au), the Nantais 2 showing (7.9 g/t Au and 7.2 g/t Ag) and the Cabane showing (2.48% Zn, 7% Pb, 0.12% Cu, 1,600 g/t Ag and 0.47 g/t Au). Upon examination of the assessment work reports, the company decided to pursue the exploration by mobilizing for a few hours a 4-man team in order to rapidly asses the potential of further discoveries on surface in the near vicinity of the existing showings; the team’Äôs mandate was also to recover additional samples from existing showings to reproduce the results.

Geology of the Nantais property is composed of a contact between felsic and mafic volcanic rocks, the Nantais 1 and 2 showings are hosted within the Mafic volcanic rocks and the Cabane showing sits on the contact of a felsic volcanit lens within the mafic volcanics.

The results of these investigations will be announced by news release in the upcoming weeks.
