Midland Resumes Drilling ON Samson ON the New GOLD Discovery at Golden Delilah Southeast of Wallbridge’S Fenelon/Tabasco Deposit
MIDLAND RESUMES DRILLING ON SAMSON ON THE NEW GOLD DISCOVERY AT
GOLDEN DELILAH SOUTHEAST OF WALLBRIDGE’S FENELON/TABASCO DEPOSIT
Montreal, September 15, 2020. Midland Exploration Inc. (“Midland”) (TSX-V: MD) is pleased to
announce that a new drilling c ampaign has commenced on its recent gold discovery named Golden
Delilah, on its Samson project. This property is wholly owned by M idland and is located
approximately 15 kilometres southeast of the Fenelon and Tabasco dep osits held by Wallbridge
Mining Company Ltd (“Wallbridge”).
Resumption of drilling
As a follow -up to the new gold d iscovery made in July at Golden Delila h on the Samson property, a
new drilling campaign has commenced. This campaign consists of seven (7) drill holes totalling more
than 2,000 metres and is mainly designed to test the Golden Delilah zone along the strike extensions
with two drill ho les at a 50 -metre spacing, with another hole testing approximately 25 metres above
drill hole SAM -20-10. The four (4) remaining drill holes will tes t h igh-priority structural targets
defined by resistivity lows which are interpreted to be caused by the Golden Delilah gold -bearing
structure.
Discovery of the Golden Delilah zone
Last July, a new gold -bearing zone, named Golden Delilah, was discovered in drill hole SAM-20-10.
This new discovery consists of a quartz -albite ve in intersected over a core length of 1.60 metres,
hosted in ultramafic intrusive rocks, which graded 99.1 g/ t Au , 71.3 g/t Ag and 0.17% Pb over
0.40 metre, from 106.45 to 106.85 metres (see press release by M idland dated September 1, 2020 ).
This section of the vein was characterized by the presenc e of at least 13 visible gold grains some 1 -
2 mm in diameter over 40 centimetres, while the rest of t he vein yielded gold values r anging between
1.57 g/t Au and 2.23 g/t Au. The vein is cut by a late fault and as a result, no core was recovered over
1.05 metres. The Golden Delilah zone was intersected in two holes drilled on the same section, along
the north limb of a folded magnetic structure.
Drill hole SAM-20-11, testing approximately 50 metres below d rill hole SAM-20-10, intersected the
Golden Delilah zone with an inter val grading 2.21 g/t Au over 0.45 m etre, from 120.70 to
121.15 metres. This new gold -bearing structure is interp reted as a p ossible subsidiary of the regional
Lower Detour Fault.
The Golden Delilah zone remains open in all directions. Assay results for the remainder of drill holes
SAM-20-10 and SAM-20-11, and for holes SAM-20-07, 08 and 09 drilled during the same campaign,
are still pending and are expected in the coming weeks.
Cautionary statement
The true thickness of reported intervals cannot be determined with the information currently available;
intervals are thus reported in core length.
Quality Control
Exploration programs are designed, and results are interpreted by Quali fied Persons employing a
Quality Assurance/Quality Control program consistent with industry best practic es, including the use
of standards and blanks for every 20 samples. Core samples from the Golden Delilah mineralized zone
were analyzed by metallic scre en fire assay (Au -SCR21) at ALS Minerals laboratories in Val d’Or,
Quebec.; this method is optimal for samples containing visible gold.
All samples are also analysed for multi -elements, using fou r-acid ICP –AES method (ME-ICP61) at
ALS Minerals laboratories in Vancouver, British Columbia.
