Underground and surface drilling yields results for Toronto-based\u00a0Wallbridge Mining Co. at its Fenelon gold project 75 km northwest of Matagami, Quebec. The results are high grade \u2013 up to 144.77 g\/t gold over 6.1 metres \u2013 but the program also resulted in the discovery of a new visible gold zone at depth.\u00a0Surface drilling has so far returned 4.70 g\/t gold over 3.0 metres<\/q><\/p>\n

The foregoing intersection was drilled underground into the Habanero zone. Here are some more underground results: 9.12 g\/t gold over 7.0 metres including 24.63 g\/t gold over 2.5 metres in the Naga Viper zone; 25.24 g\/t gold over 9.3 metres including 125.44 g\/t gold over 1.8 metres in the Habanero zone; 10.39 g\/t gold over 4.5 metres in the Chipotle zone; 39.28 g\/t gold over 1.7 metres in the Naga Viper zone; and 49.21 g\/t gold over 2.2 metres in the Paprika zone.<\/p>\n

Surface drilling has so far returned these assays: 4.70 g\/t gold over 3.0 metres in the Habanero zone; and 29.90 g\/t gold over 1.0 metre confirming the high grade nature of this deep intersection of what is most likely the depth extension of the Tabasco zone.<\/p>\n

Wallbridge says it was hole FA-018-051 that returned visible gold in a potentially new zone at a vertical depth of 380 metres. Assays from 12 underground and 15 surface holes are pending.<\/p>\n

Bulk sampling (35,000 tonnes) is currently underway at Fenelon, and the company plans to start gold production later this year.<\/p>\n

The 2019 drill program \u2013 50,000 to 75,000 metres \u2013 will commence in early February with mobilization of at least one underground and one surface drill rig.<\/p>\n
