Wallbridge Assays 2.81 g/t Gold over 98.91 metres including 15.93 g/t Gold over 11.22 metres Confirming Significance of Area 51 Zone Discovery

23.04.2019  |  CNW

TORONTO, April 23, 2019 -  Wallbridge Mining Company Ltd. (TSX:WM, FWB: WC7) ("Wallbridge" or the "Company") today announced that hole FA-19-052 has assayed 2.81 g/t gold over 98.91 metres confirming the significance of the newly-discovered Area 51 Zone at its 100%-owned Fenelon Gold property ("Fenelon" or the "Property"). In addition, the Company announced intercepts from the Fenelon Main Zone including 22.54 g/t gold over 7.95 metres (5.58 metres true width).

Highlights

Area 51 Zone

  • 2.81 g/t gold over 98.91 metres in FA-19-052 within Area 51 Zone, within a broad mineralized interval of more than 200 metres.
  • Higher grade sub-intervals within the 98.9 metres include:
    • 15.93 g/t gold over 11.22 metres, including 34.59 g/t gold over 1.07 metres and 62.68 g/t gold over 2.25 metres
    • 8.71 g/t gold over 6.24 metres
    • 4.57 g/t gold over 2.60 metres
    • 5.63 g/t gold over 2.36 metres
  • Visible gold was observed to be present in all holes testing Area 51 Zone to date.
  • Approximately 400 metres of strike length within Area 51 has now been tested to greater than 500 metres vertical depth.
  • 2 more drills have now been added for a total of 2 surface and 2 underground drill rigs.

Fenelon Main Zone

Significant mineralization was also encountered within the main Gabbro (Fenelon Main Zone):

  • 22.54 g/t gold over 7.95 metres, including 42.29 g/t gold over 4.02 metres
  • 7.85 g/t gold over 4.65 metres

"These assays confirm that Area 51 Zone is a target that dramatically increases the potential of the gold system at Fenelon," said Marz Kord, President & CEO of Wallbridge. "We have now tested approximately 400 metres along the strike of this potential 2.5-kilometre structure and each of the holes drilled to date has intersected broad zones of mineralization with occasional visible gold. We have added two more drills and will continue to test the Area 51 Zone along strike, the Fenelon Main Zone to depth and other targets on the Fenelon Gold property."

The Area 51 Zone was discovered by the last hole of the 2018 program (FA-18-051), approximately 300 m west of the Fenelon Main Zone.

"Since completing our highly successful drill hole FA-19-052, which is the subject of this press release, we have extended two holes drilled last year and drilled two additional holes through Area 51", explained Attila Pentek, VP Exploration.  "All four holes intersected significant gold mineralization along 400 m strike length of Area 51. We continue to intersect broad gold mineralization hosted within various porphyritic and gabbroic rock types with visible gold-bearing shear zones. These characteristics confirm the significant size potential of this newly discovered mineralized corridor. These results warrant very aggressive step-out drilling up-dip, down-dip and along strike to test the size of this system."

A summary of the new drill hole results from the ongoing 2018/2019 underground and surface drill programs are reported in Tables 1 and 2 and also shown on the Figures below as well as on the Company website.

Fenelon is located in northwestern Quebec proximal to the Sunday Lake Deformation Zone ("SLDZ") which hosts the Detour Gold Mine in Ontario, and Balmoral Resources' gold deposits at Martiniere. Fenelon hosts the Discovery Zone gold deposit and surrounding 4 km strike length of a gold-hosting secondary splay of the SLDZ.

Since acquiring the property in late 2016, Wallbridge has completed an updated resource estimate and a positive pre-feasibility study on the existing resource. Wallbridge has undertaken successful surface exploration drilling campaigns in 2017, 2018 and 2019, and has substantially completed an underground 35,000-tonne bulk sample at Fenelon. Drilling to date has significantly extended existing zones and discovered several new parallel zones.

Drill core samples from the ongoing drill program at Fenelon were cut and bagged on site and transported to SGS Canada Inc. Samples, along with standards, blanks, and duplicates included for quality assurance and quality control, were prepared and analyzed at SGS Canada Inc. laboratories. Samples are crushed to 90% less than 2mm. A 1kg riffle split is pulverized to >95% passing 106 microns. 50g samples are analyzed by fire assay and AAS. Samples >10g/t Au are automatically analyzed by fire assay with gravimetric finish or screen metallic analysis. To test for coarse free gold and for additional quality assurance and quality control, Wallbridge requests screen metallic analysis for samples containing visible gold. These and future assay results may vary from time to time due to re-analysis for quality assurance and quality control.

About Wallbridge Mining

Wallbridge is establishing a pipeline of projects that will support sustainable production and revenue as well as organic growth through exploration and scalability.

Wallbridge is currently developing its 100%-owned high-grade Fenelon Gold property in Quebec with ongoing exploration and a 35,000-tonne bulk sample. Wallbridge is also pursuing additional advanced-stage projects which would add to the Company's near-term project pipeline. These discussions benefit from the operating capabilities Wallbridge demonstrated by safely and efficiently mining the Broken Hammer deposit in Sudbury, which was completed in October 2015. As part of this strategy, the Company recently optioned the Beschefer Project, an advanced gold property with proven size and grade-potential near Fenelon Gold. Wallbridge is also continuing partner-funded exploration on its large portfolio of nickel, copper, and PGM projects in Sudbury, Ontario, with a focus on its high-grade Parkin project.

Wallbridge also has exposure to exploration for copper and gold in Jamaica and British Columbia through its 11.3% ownership of Carube Copper Corp. (CUC:TSX-V, formerly Miocene Resources Limited, a Wallbridge spin-out of its BC assets).

This press release may contain forward-looking statements (including "forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation and "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the US Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) relating to, among other things, the operations of Wallbridge and the environment in which it operates. Generally, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as "plans", "expects" or "does not expect", "is expected", "budget", "scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends", "anticipates" or "does not anticipate", or "believes", or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might" or "will be taken", "occur" or "be achieved". Wallbridge has relied on a number of assumptions and estimates in making such forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, the costs associated with the development and operation of its properties. Such assumptions and estimates are made in light of the trends and conditions that are considered to be relevant and reasonable based on information available and the circumstances existing at this time. A number of risk factors may cause actual results, level of activity, performance or outcomes of such exploration and/or mine development to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements including, without limitation, whether such discoveries will result in commercially viable quantities of such mineralized materials, the possibility of changes to project parameters as plans continue to be refined, the ability to execute planned exploration and future drilling programs, the need for additional funding to continue exploration and development efforts, changes in general economic, market and business conditions, and those other risks set forth in Wallbridge's most recent annual information form under the heading "Risk Factors" and in its other public filings. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and such information is inherently subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that are difficult to predict and may be beyond the control of Wallbridge. Although Wallbridge has attempted to identify important risks and factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors and risks that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. Consequently, undue reliance should not be placed on such forward-looking statements. In addition, all forward-looking statements in this press release are given as of the date hereof.

Wallbridge disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, save and except as may be required by applicable securities laws.
