Mr. Bernard-Olivier Martel, Director of Exploration at 1844, states "we are exceptionally pleased with this addition as it closes off our land position and adds the remaining two (2) known showing in the Native Copper Project area. The high-grade samples taken to date on the limited exploration done in the area are highly prospective and strengthens our thesis that the Native Copper Project could become a copper exploration camp in the Gaspe Peninsula."

Vortex Update
After detailed analysis 1844 has decided to postpone its previously announced drill program on the Vortex Project due to the proximity of a habitat of a vulnerable or threatened wildlife species (Forest Caribou, Gaspésie population). 1844's technical team has now shifted its exploration plans firmly to the Native Copper Project.
