Cartier Cuts High-Grade Intersection of 35.3 g/t Au over 4.4 m North of the Portal Zone on East Cadillac

Val-d’Or, Quebec – November 20, 2024Cartier Resources Inc. (TSXV: ECR, FSE: 6CA) (“Cartier” or the “Company”) reports high-grade gold results in the Portal sector at its 100%-owned East Cadillac property.  The latter is located 45 km east of the Val-d’Or mining camp.

 

Highlights:

 

  • The drill holes intersected:

 

  • An intersection grading 241.0 g/t Au over 0.6 m included within 35.3 g/t Au over 4.4 m, 250 m north of the Portal Gold Zone (FIGURE and table 1 below);

 

  • Intersections grading 13.7 g/t Au over 0.5 m included within 4.7 g/t Au over 4.5 m and 5.9g/t Au over 1.5 m, situated several meters from the Portal exploration ramp (Table 2 below);

 

  • The two drills, completing the 2024 exploration drilling program of 29,000 m (164 holes), have discovered to date 5 new high-grade gold zones on the East Cadillac property and exploration continues (FIGURE).

 

“ The results, obtained north of the Portal Zone, suggest the presence of a second high-grade gold structure in this area ” commented Philippe Cloutier, President and CEO.

Quality Assurance / Quality Control

 

For each batch of samples sent to the laboratory, Cartier inserts 5% of the number of samples in the form of certified standards and another 5% in the form of blanks to ensure quality control.  The samples are analyzed at the Techni-Lab (Actlabs) laboratory in Ste-Germaine-Boulé, Québec, Canada. Samples weighing 3 to 5 kg are crushed by the laboratory to 90% passing 10 mesh (2.00 mm), then a 500 g fraction of each sample is pulverized to 90% passing 200 mesh (0.07 mm).  The resulting 50 g pulps are analyzed by fire assay with an atomic absorption finish.  Samples with results ≥ 1.0 g/t and < 10.0 g/t are re-assayed by fire assay with an atomic absorption finish.  Results greater than or equal to 10.0 g/t Au are analyzed by fire assay with a gravimetric finish.  For samples containing visible gold, a 500 g subsample of rock is analyzed by the metallic sieve method.
