Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 21, 2021) -
Quadro Resources
Ltd.
(
TSXV: QRO) (
OTCQB: QDROF) (
FSE: G4O2
)
("Quadro" or the "Company")
is pleased to
announce that it has completed its 2021 drilling at its Long Lake Project in Newfoundland. The drill is
now being mobilized to its Staghorn property, located 50 km southwest of Long Lake. The total program
is presently set for a minimum of 2500 m of drilling.
Long Lake
At Long Lake, the main target is the Ricky occurrence, where soil sampling and prospecting has defined
a 700 m long gold target highlighted by a strong Au-in-soil anomaly and a number of float samples with
values up to 33.65 g/t Au. Detailed ground magnetics was completed on the target and an IP survey was
completed prior to drilling. The Company will release the results of these programs when received.
At Long Lake, the Company drilled 5 holes, intersecting pyrite mineralization with strong alteration
including silicification, sericitization and variable quartz veining. Minor visible gold was recognized in
hole 4 within the altered zone. Assays are pending, however due to the extremely busy exploration
environment in Newfoundland assay are experiencing extended delays, in many cases longer than usual,
with delays of up to a month or more.
Staghorn
Drilling is now mobilizing to Staghorn, where the Company plans to drill under last year's drilling-
identified mineralized targets. The Company has identified 3 holes for immediate drilling.
Drilling at Staghorn will continue to test the Marks Pond Zone and the Ryan's Hammer area. Drilling last
winter at Marks Pond extended the wide gold alteration zone 400 m to the northeast with good
indications the gold grade and thickness were increasing with depth.
Previous intersections included 3.22 g/t Au over 5.0m in MP20-02. The Ryan's Hammer area is
highlighted by numerous angular float with grab samples up to 33 g/t Au.
(Note: The grab samples
described in this news release are selective by nature and are unlikely to represent average grades of
the property).
Both properties are 100% owned by Quadro and are located within the auriferous "Cape Ray Fault
Corridor," proximal to Marathon Gold's Valentine Lake deposits. (
Total Measured Mineral Resources
(inclusive of the Mineral Reserves) comprise 1.9 Moz (31.7 Mt at 1.86 g/t) with Indicated Mineral
Resources (inclusive of the Mineral Reserves) of 1.19 Moz (23.2 Mt at 1.60 g/t). Additional Inferred
Mineral Resources are 0.96 Moz (16.77 Mt at 1.78 g/t Au). (N.I. 43-101 TECHNICAL REPORT &

. Other hot spots along this corridor include Matador Mining's Cape Ray deposits and
Sokoman Minerals' Moosehead project where an on-going drill program has produced intersections up
to 44.96 g/t Au over 11.9m (Sokoman Minerals' news release dated Oct 1, 2018).
