Genesis Metals Corp. is pleased to provide an exploration update for its Chevrier Gold Project in the eastern Abitibi Greenstone Belt of Central Quebec. The 2020 Phase II drill program, now projected to be 6,000 metres in 24 holes, is progressing well and results from surface programs completed over the summer are available. Highlights: approximately 5,180 metres in 20 holes of the planned 24-hole Phase II drill program have been completed; nine sample shipments including 14 holes have been remitted for assay; follow-up till sampling highlights potential of the area east and along strike of the Chevrier East deposit with results of up to 466 gold grains (normalized to a 10-kilogram sample). Of the 272 grains that were physically recovered from the sample, 88% were pristine indicating a proximal source B-horizon soils analyzed by Ionic Leach TM identify multiple targets in the area east and along strike of the Chevrier East deposit. The anomalous B-horizon samples correspond to the area up-ice from the high-gold grain count till samples; Prospecting and sampling program in the area north of till target #3 identified several areas of anomalous gold (up to 17.8 g/t Au sampled in 2017; up to 4.79 g/t Au sampled in July 2020) and a trenching program has been carried out to further evaluate the target. The 2020 Phase II drilling program is now projected to total 6,000 metres in 24 holes; the Phase I program, executed and reported earlier in the year comprised 2,502 metres in 9 holes (June 2 and July 7, 2020 News Releases). Phase II drilling to date has primarily focused on continued definition and volume expansion of higher-grade domains which form plunging “shoots” within the Chevrier Main deposit. Additional targets include step outs from reported areas of high-grade gold outside of the Chevrier Main deposit as well as a deeper test of the down-plunge projections of the deposit below the 2019 resource pit shell. Samples have been regularly remitted for analysis (nine shipments to date) along with QA/QC standard and blank samples. Results will be reported in batches once received and evaluated.
