Cartier cuts a broad high-grade gold system at East Cadillac;
with 14.7 g/t Au over 4.3 m within 20.6 m grading 5.2 g/t Au
Val-d’Or, Québec – October 16, 2024 – Cartier Resources Inc. (TSXV: ECR, FSE: 6CA) ("Cartier" or the
"Company") reports high-grade gold results from drilling exploration at its 100% -owned East Cadillac
property. The latter is located 45 km east of the Val-d’Or mining camp.
Highlights
➢ The 28,000-m (174 drill holes ) drilling exploration program continue to deliver high-grade gold
results on the East Cadillac property (FIGURE).
➢ Multiple high-grade gold intersections over considerable thickness, near surface, form a new
gold system at North Contact Sector (Tables 1 and 2 below):
➢ 14.7 g/t Au over 4.3 m included within 5.2 g/t Au over 20.6 m
➢ 6.3 g/t Au over 4.0 m included within 3.0 g/t Au over 15.0 m
➢ 5.7 g/t Au over 4.0 m including 15.0 g/t Au over 1.0 m
➢ Two drill rigs continue to explore high-grade gold targets along the regional Larder Lake - Cadillac Fault
Zone.
“The results at North Contact are impressive and in the continuity of VG9, VG10 and East Bateman high -
grade gold discoveries. This new gold-bearing trend provides us various options generating numerous
exploration opportunities to discover one or more gold systems that range from high to moderate gold grade”
commented Philippe Cloutier, President and CEO.

The lengths of the mineralized intersections are expressed as measured lengths along the drill core.
The estimated true widths of the mineralized intersections are approximately 65 to 90% of the reported lengths.

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, Qu ébec, 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.
