St-Georges Eco-Mining Corp C.SX

Alternate Symbol(s):  SXOOF

St-Georges Eco-Mining Corp. develops new technologies to solve some of the common environmental problems in the mining sector, including maximizing metal recovery and full-circle battery recycling. The Company explores for nickel and PGEs and other strategic and critical minerals on the Manicouagan and Julie Projects on Quebec’s North Shore, for Niobium and Rare Earth Minerals on the Notre-Dame Project in the Lac St-Jean region and has multiple exploration projects in Iceland, including the Thor Gold Project. The Manicouagan Project is located approximately 70 kilometers (km) north of the Manicouagan Crater and 350 km northwest of Baie-Comeau, QC. The Julie Project is located via a 90-minute drive from the deep seaport city of Baie-Comeau on the Quebec North Shore. The Project comprises 294 claims for an area of 16,226.99 hectares. The Notre-Dame Project is located near the municipality of Notre-Dame de Lorette on the northern flank of the Lac St-Jean in Quebec.

St-Georges samples 37.4 g/t Au at Thor

St-Georges samples 37.4 g/t Au at Thor
THOR GOLD RIVERBED
 
St-Georges Eco-Mining Corp. has released the initial fire assay results from the preliminary surface exploration campaign conducted on the Thor gold project in order to prepare this summer's shallow drilling campaign. The company's exploration team collected grab samples from the dry riverbed on both sides of the river running to the west of the historical work areas. A total of eight samples were cut from the outcrops.
 
All grab samples have shown the presence of gold with assays results ranging from 0.001 gram per tonne to 37.4 g/t.
 
The grab samples collected from the outcrop are, by nature, selected samples and are not necessarily representative of the mineralization hosted on the property.
 
Three of the grab samples located between 50 metres and 150 m of the historical workings are deemed significant enough to warrant some adjustment to the previously planned shallow drilling grid for this summer's campaign.
 
                    FIRE ASSAYS RESULTS
 
           Silver g/t  Copper %   Gold g/t             Lead    
       
Sample 003     5.9 g/t    0.015%  11.75 g/t  Not significant
Sample 007     0.6 g/t    0.014%   2.47 g/t  Not significant
Sample 008    69.3 g/t    0.216%   37.4 g/t            4.37%          

Quality control
Samples were collected and bagged by the SX geological team and transported in secure bags directly from the site to Iceland Resources' secured warehouse facilities in Keflavik. From there, two quality control blank samples were added to the other eight samples, and the batch travelled by plane to ALS Global Laboratories (ISO/IEC 17025 accredited) in Loughrea, Ireland. All samples were tested using four-acid trace analysis (ME-ICP61). Samples that yielded precious metals content in excess of 10 parts per million were analyzed a second time by gravity separation and fire assay finish.
 
About Thor gold
 
The Thormodsdalur gold project is located about 20 km east of the city centre of Reykjavik and southeast of Lake Hafravatn. The project was discovered in 1908. The property produced a gold concentrate from 1911 to 1925, which was shipped to Germany for processing. Over 300 m of tunnels explored and mined one or more quartz veins and wall rock below open cuts at the surface.
 
Studies between 1996 and 2013 identified the project mineralization as a low-sulphidation system hosted by basic to intermediate flows of Pliocene to Miocene age. The host contains banded chalcedony and ginguro within a fault zone up to five m in width. To date, the identified gold trend has a known strike length of 700 m determined by drill intercepts. Petrographic analysis of the vein material identified gold occurring in its free form and as part of an assemblage with pyrite and chalcopyrite. Petrographic and XRD studies show an evolution of the vein system from the zeolite assemblage to quartz-adularia and, lastly, to minor calcite.
 
Thirty-two holes have been drilled within the licence area for a total of 2,439 m. Gold values vary from less than 0.5 g/t to a maximum of 415 g/t. (These values were obtained from selected random intervals and cannot be construed to be representative of any particular thickness or overall length.) The best intercepts from the diamond drilling are 33.5 m of eight g/t Au (true thickness) and 5.2 m of 35.4 g/t Au (true thickness).
 
Gary McLearn, a professional geoscientist (Ontario APGO No. 2900) and an independent qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, has prepared and supervised the preparation and approved the scientific and technical disclosure in the news release.
 
Herb Duerr, PGeo (AIPG, CPG No. 11498), a St-Georges' director, has also reviewed the scientific and technical content of this release. Mr. Duerr is a qualified person as defined by NI 43-101 -- Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.
