QMX Gold (TSXV: QMX) shares jumped on Tuesday after the company announced<\/a> new results from the ongoing exploration drilling program on the Bonnefond deposit\u00a0in Val d\u2019Or, Quebec.<\/p>\n

Hole DDH 17315-20-121 returned an overall average grade of 1.48g\/t Au over 1,109.6m in the Bonnefond intrusive with multiple high-grade zones. The company also reported high grade zone within current pit shell: 6.48 g\/t Au over 73.2m and a high grade zone at depth: 35.56 g\/t Au over 4.0m at 1,050m. <\/p>\n

\u201cWhile we refine the structural geological model and discover more shear zones transecting the tonalitic and dioritic intrusive with elevated mineralization levels. We intend to further explore the precise extent of the plug and the geometry of the shears within as it seems highly prolific for high gold grades.\u201d said Dr. Andreas Rompel, QMX vice president of exploration.<\/p>\n

Midday Tuesday, QMX\u2019s stock was up 75% on the TSXV. The company has a C$123 million market capitalization.<\/p>\n

The Bonnefond deposit is within the eastern end of the Val d\u2019Or holding.<\/p>\n

Last year, QMX released a maiden pit-constrained resource for Bonnefond, with measured and indicated resources of 4.8 million tonnes grading 1.69 g\/t gold, containing 258,700 gold oz. and a further 2.4 million inferred tonnes at 1.87 g\/t gold, containing 145,100 oz. The majority of these resources are within the intrusive unit \u2013 shear zones contribute 72,000 inferred oz. to this total. Last year\u2019s estimate is based on a 0.75 g\/t gold cut-off grade.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
