Cartier Intersects 9.4 g/t Au Over 6.5 Meters at Chimo Mine
Val-d’Or, November 17th, 201 7 – Cartier Resources Inc. (TSX -V: ECR) ("Cartier") is pleased to
announce results from its 25,000-m ongoing drill program on the Chimo Mine property, located 45 km
east of Val -d'Or. The 2B Zone ( 2 Structure) was intersected 150 m east-north-east of the shaft
(FIGURE). The intersection graded 9.4 g/t Au over 6.5 m including 56.0 g/t Au over 0.5 m and
25.2 g/t Au over 2.0 m (refer to Table below).

Lengths are expressed along drill core axis. The true thickness was not determined.
The 2B Zone intersection is situated 50 m below the 2016 program, CH16-01, drill hole intersection
which returned 17.3 g/t Au over 3.0 m included within 8.2 g/t Au over 7.0 m.
Drill hole CH17-16 also intersected, 150 m below the 4 E Zone projection at depth , 6.3 g/t Au over
1.9 m inclu ding 12.3 g/t Au over 0.7 m . The gold -bearing intersections are characterized with
biotite-chlorite alteration and mineralization consisting of visible gold grains (PHOTO), arsenopyrite
and/or pyrrhotite mineralization, smoky and/or white quartz veining . All other assay results from the
two drills active on the property are still pending.
This 3D VIDEO helps visualize the different gold -bearing structures on the Chimo Mine property as
well as key components that are the mine infrastructures , the gold-bearing zones, the gold intersection
areas left unmined as well as the 281 targets of the ongoing drill program. The 2 and 4 Structures are
presented in the video.
«These results illustrate the potential of the 2B Zone. High grade gold mineralization in this area now
extends to a depth of 300 meters » commented Philippe Cloutier, President and CEO of Cartier
adding, « additional drilling in this area is planned to further explore the depth extension of this Zone ».
Quality Assurance / Quality Control
All lengths, mentioned in this press release, were measured along the drill core. The NQ core samples
are crushed up to 80% passing 8 mesh sieves and then pulverized up to 90% passing a 200 -mesh
sieve. Cartier inserts 5% of the number of samples in the form of certified standards and another 5% in
the form of sterile samples to ensure quality control. The samples are analyzed at the Techni -Lab
laboratory (Actlabs), located in Ste -Germaine-Boulé, Quebec. The 50 g pulps are analyzed by fire
assay and atomic absorption. For samples containing visible gold, 1000 g of rock are directly analyzed
by the "Metallic Sieve" method.
The scientific and/or technical information presented in this press release has been reviewed and
approved by Mr. Gaétan Lavalli ère, P. Geo., Ph. D. and Vice President for Cartier Resources. Mr.
Lavallière is a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101.
