Midland Acquires the McDuff Copper-Gold-Molybdenum Project, James Bay,
Quebec
MONTREAL, July 23, 2019 -- Midland Exploration inc. (“Midland“) (TSX-V : MD) is pleased to announce it recently acquired
the McDuff project by map staking to cover an area deemed very favorable for copper-gold-molybdenum mineralization in the
James Bay/Eeyou Istchee region, Quebec. Its western end is located about 2 kilometers from the historical McLeod Cu-Au-
Mo prospect, and about 45 kilometers west of road 167. (Midland cautions that mineralization on the McLeod historical
prospect may not be indicative of the mineralization that may be identified on the McDuff project). The project contains 159
claims, covering 84 square kilometers.
The McDuff project has the following favorable features:
• Covers more than 20 kilometers of the favorable contact between the McLeod granodiorite and the La Guiche
paragneiss complex, that hosts the historical McLeod Cu-Au-Mo prospect. This contact was recently mapped in 2018
by the MERN (Quebec government).
• Previously unknown copper mineralization was observed on the project by MERN geologists during regional mapping in
2018. A 2018 MERN grab sample located near the favorable contact yielded 0.31% Cu and 13.1 g/t Ag. Note that grab
samples are selective by nature and values reported are not representative of mineralized zones.
• A strong and unexplained copper-molybdenum lake sediment anomaly is present near the favorable contact in the
western part of the project.
Midland will conduct a prospection and mapping campaign later in the year on McDuff.
