McLaren Resources Inc. (CSE: MCL) (FSE: 3ML) ("McLaren" the "Company") announces that it is planning to perform a Drone MAG geophysical survey over selected areas of the Blue Quartz Gold Property located 73 km east of Timmins. The Blue Quartz Gold Property neighbors the Munro-Croesus Gold Project of ONYX Gold Corp. and the Goldarm Property of GFG Resources Inc. and is located north of the Fox Gold Mine property of McEwen Mining Inc. (see Area Map, Figure 1).
The Blue Quartz Property is situated on geological faults associated with the Destor Porcupine Fault Zone which trends east-west within the Abitibi Greenstone Belt. The property hosts the past producing Blue Quartz Mine, the past producing Aljo Mine Shaft as well as the Lucky Ben exploration shaft, the Dunlop exploration shaft and the Clifford exploration shaft (see Property Map, Figure 2).
Exploration success at ONYX Gold's Argus North Zone situated 5 km along structural trend to the south-east plus GFG Resources exploration success adjacent to the north Blue Quartz property boundary highlight the exploration potential of the Blue Quartz property. The 100 percent McLaren owned Blue Quartz property covers an area of 640 hectares and consists of patented claims and staked claim cells.
McLaren plans to focus the MAG geophysical survey over two geological structures on the Blue Quartz property where historic underground mining work previously took place. The Blue Quartz Mine target area is located in the southern portion of the property and is situated proximal to the Pipestone Fault. A second target area containing historic underground mine workings, is located in the northern part of the property proximal to the Painkiller Lake Fault.
