Metanor Intersects 12.8 g/t Over 10.8 Meters At Bachelor Mine
VAL-D'OR, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - Jun 25, 2015) - Metanor Resources Inc. ("Metanor") (TSX VENTURE:MTO) is pleased to present an update of the exploration activity at Bachelor Mine. The team at Bachelor Mine intersected 12.8 g/t over 10.8 meters in the area directly beside the sector already published June 22nd. The results are released in the table below:
Hole No | From (m) | To (m) | length (m)* | Au grade capped (g/t) | Zone | |
6-135 | 81.58 | 81.88 | 0.30 | 6.80 | West zone, 8-H-14 | |
6-140 | 116.92 | 131.49 | 14.57 | 4.97 | West zone, 8-H-14 | |
including | 116.92 | 120.76 | 3.84 | 8.30 | West zone, 8-H-14 | |
including | 129.32 | 131.50 | 2.18 | 13.61 | West zone, 8-H-14 | |
6-146 | 95.27 | 97.56 | 2.29 | 1.76 | West zone, 8-H-14 | |
6-151 | 116.46 | 127.29 | 10.82 | 12.78 (capped) | West zone, 8-H-14 | |

6-160 | 82.27 | 83.54 | 1.27 | 1.14 | West zone, 6-H-10 | |
6-161 | 67.20 | 69.21 | 2.01 | 6.72 | West zone, 6-H-10 | |
6-162 | 64.20 | 67.07 | 2.87 | 8.25 | West zone, 6-H-10 | |

*Core length |
The holes drilled in the zone identified as 8-H-14 are in the area between level 6 and 8 as indicated in the attached longitudinal section. The development of the top area of 8-H-14 on level 6 is underway. As of today, 23 meters of drift were excavated and the average diluted grade sampled is 11.2 g/t over 3.3 m wide. The development on level 6 is still going west (left on the longitudinal) and full width.
The holes drilled in the area 6-H-10 are directly above the zone 8-H-10 identified in the press release published on June 22nd. These results provide an excellent opportunity to expand the resource already published a few days earlier.
The results published today are from two drills located on level 6. A drill is also drilling on level 12 to the south of the mine. These results will be published as they are available.
The true width is between 65 and 95% of the core length obtained in diamond drill holes. The cap-off grade used in the analysis is 51.5 g/t or 1.5 oz Au. The samples were assayed by fire- assay at the Metanor assay lab. The quality control program of the assay results (QA QC) adopted by Metanor includes a minimum of 10% of controlled assays being conducted as well as verification by an independent external assay lab.
