X-Terra Resources Initiates Summer Exploration Program on
its Veronneau Project
ROUYN-NORANDA, QC
, June 30, 2017 /CNW Telbec/ - X-Terra Resources Inc. (TSXV: XTT) (FRANKFURT: XTR) is pleased to
announce the beginning of a summer exploration program on its flagship Veronneau project following the closing of the
$1.3 million
financing in
May 2017
. The summer 2017 exploration program of approximately
$500,000
should be completed by the end of the month of
July 2017
.
The exploration program led by Mr.
Michel Chapdelaine
will be performed by X-Terra Resources' consultant IOS Geoservices and will be
comprised of exploration, stripping, channel sampling and detailed mapping of more than 30 priority targets on the Veronneau Project where
management believes additional gold mineralization could be uncovered.
The Veronneau project hosts at least two gold settings; one where gold is associated to semi-massive pyrrhotite mineralization (the Marcaut
showing), and a totally new setting located approximately 10 kilometres west where gold is associated with early stage quartz veins and some
arsenopyrite (the Veronneau showing). X-Terra Resources intends on expanding on both of these settings.
"After months of waiting, X-Terra Resources will be able to expand on the Veronneau showing and test targets that were generated through last
year's brief field observations in correlation with our very detailed geophysical and thin section results. Having access to a greenstone belt of this
size which extends over 45.5 kilometres, and near infrastructure is a great opportunity in the
James Bay
area" stated
Michel Chapdelaine
.
Michael Ferreira
, President and Chief Executive Officer of X-Terra Resources, states "We are extremely excited by this important work program
on the Veronneau Project. With a consolidated land position over the entire Colomb-Chaboullié greenstone belt, X-Terra Resources is well
positioned to capitalize on the numerous high priority unexplored targets".
Results from this summer exploration program will provide critical information that will be essential to ongoing exploration throughout the
Veronneau project and provide vital targeting data for X-Terra Resources' first phase of exploration drilling. Results for this summer exploration
program will be reported as they become available.
X-Terra Resources also announces that at its annual and special meeting of shareholders held on June 28, 2017 in
Rouyn-Noranda
, Québec, X-
Terra Resources' six directors were re-elected, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, a partnership of Chartered Professional Accountants, were re-

as required by the TSX Venture Exchange.
