Knick Exploration Inc. announced that 4 diamond drill holes totaling 630m have been completed to date on the East-West gold property. All 4 holes, chasing the surface projection of the West gold zone, have intersected the West Zone mineralized structure which is inside the Marbenite deformation corridor. Drilling is ongoing. A minimum of 5,000 million of drilling is to be performed. The main goal of the program is to systematically test the resource potential of the West Zone. The 4 holes were collared to test the up dip extension of the West Zone mineralization close to the bed rock interface. As projected and expected these holes intersected a weakly pyritized mafic unit sandwiched between ultramafic layers. The intersected zone consists of a network of quartz-carbonate veins with thicknesses up to 20 cm and hosting finely disseminated pyrite was encountered. The drill holes targeted a bracketed down hole length of intersection between 50m and 80m. Hole EW- 16-01 intersected the target for 18 meters down hole between 48 metres and 66 metres. Logging and sampling are ongoing. Samples from hole EW-16-01 have been submitted to the ALS Mineral laboratory in Val d'Or, Quebec for gold analysis and assay results are pending. The East-West property is straddled by a 500 meter corridor encompassing mafic-ultramafic rocks which have been tightly folded and injected with quartz veins. Significant alteration halos of chlorite-carbonate and albite occur on Knick's property similar to what has been documented in its neighbour's deposits. Down dip extensions of known mineralization below 200m on the East-West property have yet to be tested while the ore bodies of the Val d'Or mining camp typically exceed 1,000 meters depth.
