Monarch Gold Increases the Size of McKenzie Break by Acquiring 124 New Mineral Claims

27.02.2020  |  CNW
  • Following the 32.30 g/t Au over 7.1 metres (23.3 feet) result recently announced (see press release dated February 26, 2020), it was imperative for Monarch Gold to secure the claims around the property.
  • McKenzie Break now consists of 134 mineral claims covering a total area of 51 km2 or 20 square miles (see the latest properties map).
  • The McKenzie Break property and its gold mineralization are associated with a favourable intrusion along a southeast-trending secondary structure off the Mainville East fault, a possible extension of the Destor Porcupine Fault.

MONTREAL, Feb. 27, 2020 /CNW Telbec/ - Monarch Gold Corp. ("Monarch" or the "Corporation") (TSX: MQR) (OTCMKTS: MRQRF) (FRANKFURT: MR7) is pleased to report that it has acquired 91 mineral claims surrounding the McKenzie Break property (the "Property") from a group of private companies and prospectors (the "Vendors"). In addition, the Corporation has acquired 33 mineral claims by staking. In all, the McKenzie Break property now consists of 134 mineral claims covering a total area of 5,106.9 ha (51 km2). The newly defined property boundaries cover an area approximately 14 times the size of the original property and encompass virtually all of the favourable intrusion containing the gold mineralization.

"It was important for us to secure these additional claims around McKenzie Break, especially in light of the excellent results obtained since the property was acquired and particularly from the last drilling program," said Jean-Marc Lacoste, President and Chief Executive Officer of Monarch. "The drill results to date indicate that the McKenzie Break property has excellent exploration potential in all directions and at depth."

Here below are two tables that each show the top 10 intercepts from the McKenzie Break drilling programs since Monarch acquired the property in December 2017, and from drilling programs before acquiring the property based on metal factor (grade times length), which show the extent of the high-grade potential on this property.

Monarch Gold sampling consists of sawing the core into equal halves along its main axis and shipping one of the halves to the ALS Minerals laboratory in Val-d'Or, Quebec, for assaying. The samples are crushed, pulverized and assayed by fire assay, with atomic absorption finish. Results exceeding 3.0 g/t Au are re-assayed using the gravity method, and samples containing visible gold grains are assayed using the metallic screen method. Monarch uses a comprehensive QA/QC protocol, including the insertion of standards, blanks and duplicates.

Historic sampling consisted of splitting and/or sawing the core into equal halves along its main axis and shipping one of the halves of core to ALS Chemex Laboratory or Techni-Lab in Val-d'Or, Quebec. The samples are crushed, pulverized and assayed by fire assay, with an atomic absorption finish. High-grade gold values were re-assayed using the metallic screen method and finished with atomic absorption. Standards, blanks and duplicates were inserted subject to each historic company's protocol.
