Drill Resumes On East-West Gold Property

Val d’Or, Quebec, Canada, January 10, 2017 Knick Exploration Inc. (TSXV:KNX)(“Knick”) is pleased to announce the resumption of the diamond drill program on its East-West gold property. To date 12 holes totalling 2,730 meters of drilling has been completed on the minimum of 5,000m of drilling to be performed. The holes have been logged and sampled and include the deepest hole drilled to date on the property, 495 meters down hole (466 meters vertical depth). Sample results will be released later this month. The main goal of the program is to systematically test the resource potential of the West Zone.
Knick’s 100% owned East-West property is located in the Val d’Or-Malartic mining camp of Quebec, Canada. Its neighbours on strike to the east and west respectively are, Wesdome Gold Mines Ltd. (TSX: WDO) Kiena Mine and Osisko Mining Inc. (TSX: OSK) Marban Mine. The property is bound to the north by claims recently acquired by Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd. (TSX: AEM). Adjacent to the south of Knick’s ground is the Malartic Goldfields Mine property recently acquired and held jointly by Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd. and Yamana Gold Inc. (TSX: YRI).
The drill program will cover the West Zone down to 300 meters and along a strike length of 400 meters. Appropriate sampling to cover all present day aspects of the core for its potential gold mineralization will be used, thus improving and extending the known gold systems footprint on the property.
