The management of SIRIOS (TSXV:SOI) is pleased to announce partial results of the first drill holes of the Winter campaign that began recently on the Cheechoo gold property.
- Drill hole #95 intersected an interval of 13.5 m grading 11.9 g/t Au, including a quartz vein with visible gold of 2.1 m grading 65.1 g/t Au.
- Extension of drill hole #58 intersected the I zone over 13.5 m grading 6.2 g/t Au with 5.0 m grading 15.8 g/t Au including 1.0 m at 70.1 g/t Au.
Drill hole # 95 is located at more than 750 metres west of the main drilled zone. The intersected vein matches the one sampled in the sub-in-place boulder that yielded up to 113.5 g/t Au (27 February, 2017 press release).
As quoted in the press release:
Mr. Dominique Doucet, President, states: “The partial results of the first two drill holes of our winter campaign show that we can obtain high gold grades over significant widths; both beyond our main drilled area and in depth extension of already known zones, such as the I zone for drill hole 58E. Once again, this demonstrates the magnitude of the Cheechoo auriferous system, which Sirios is preparing to unveil with ambitious drilling programs.”
