Quadro Signs Agreement to Earn 100% Interest
in Careless Cove and Yellow Fox Properties,
Newfoundland and Labrador
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 8, 2020) -
Quadro Resources Ltd.
(
TSXV:
QRO
) (
OTCQB: QDROF) (FSE: G4O2
)
("Quadro" or the "Company")
is pleased to announce that,
subject to approval from the Toronto Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") it has signed an agreement
with Metals Creek Resources Corp. ("MEK") to earn a 100% interest in MEK's Careless Cove and
Yellow Fox properties in Newfoundland (together, the "Property").
T. Barry Coughlan (CEO & President) stated:
"The two properties form an exciting addition to our
project portfolio in Newfoundland. Whereas our Victoria Lake projects are focused on the gold rich
Cape Ray Fault system, described as one of the most prospective but underexplored regions in
Canada, the Careless Cove and Yellow Fox properties are located to the northeast, and are adjacent
to New Found Gold Corp.'s claims, which have seen promising early results."
Note: Mineralization
hosted on adjacent and/or nearby properties is not necessarily indicative of mineralization hosted on the
Company's property.
In a news release dated July 30, 2020, MEK reported results from recent prospecting activities on its
Careless Cove property in Central Newfoundland
The results include 11.8 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) in grab samples. The Careless Cove claim
block is one of two 100% owned claim blocks comprising the Careless Cove/Yellow Fox Property. The
claims are located approximately 12 kilometers southwest of New Found Gold Corp. as illustrated on
the attached map. ("New Found Gold") announced excellent results from recent drilling on their
Queensway Gold Project. Drill Hole NFGC-19-01 results included an intersection of 92.86 g/t Au over
19.0 meters (see Mexican Gold Corp. press release dated January 26, 2020). Gold values on
adjacent properties in similar rocks are not representative of the mineralization on the property, have
not been verified, and should not be relied upon. (see MEK press release dated July 30, 2020).
Note: Gold values on adjacent properties in similar rocks are not representative of the mineralization
on the property, have not been verified, and should not be relied upon.
Careless Cove Claims
The recent prospecting carried out at Careless Cove uncovered mineralization comprised of quartz
breccia with disseminated and vein hosted pyrite/arsenopyrite with minor stibnite. Three samples
taken from outcrop assays are as follows:
Sample Number
g/t Au
236102
7.39
236103
0.47
236104
4.15
In addition, follow up prospecting has located rubble approximately 50 meters away from the above
mentioned outcrop samples with assays of:
Sample Number
g/t Au
323763
7.37
323764
11.83
Yellow Fox Claims
No new sampling was carried out at Yellow Fox however a description of previous MEK sampling
carried out in 2011 follows: (see Newfoundland Geoscience Resource Atlas Geofile Number:
002D/0779).
Initial prospecting carried by Metals Creek in 2011, resulted in a concentration of highly anomalous
gold values with one sample returning an assay of 59.413 g/t Au (main Yellow Fox showing) (see MEK
press release dated June 22, 2011). This led to an enhanced work program which included soil
sampling and trenching. B-horizon soils were collected 25 meters apart over two, 100m spaced, east-
west trending recce lines over the higher-grade gold sample in an attempt to trace the direction of
mineralization. Follow-up trenching was completed across the mineralization. Initial sampling
consisted of 13 selective grab samples taken throughout the trenches with assay values ranging from
214 ppb to 1877 ppb Gold and up to 11.1 % Sb, 5.5% Pb, 7 % Zn, and 72.9 g/t Ag. The trenches were
then channel sampled along their length using a diamond bladed rock saw. The best result from the
channels were from
Trench #1 which assayed 0.306 g/t Au over 26.82m within 29 continuous samples
and 4.57% Sb over 1 meter. These results were very encouraging and indicated the potential for a
more widespread gold system on the Yellow Fox claim group.
Wayne Reid, P.Geo, a Director for the Company and a qualified person as defined in National
Instrument 43-101, is responsible for this release, and supervised the preparation of the information
forming the basis for this release.
Analyses were performed by Eastern Analytical of Springdale, NL with ISO 17025 accreditation.
Samples were transported in sealed bags to Eastern and all samples were assayed using industry-
standard assay techniques for gold. Gold was analyzed by a standard 30 gram fire assay with an AA
finish.
Note: The surface grab samples described in this news release are selective by nature and are
unlikely to represent average grades of the property.
The above descriptions and technical information were taken from a press release issued by MEK
dated July 30, 2020, and approved under the supervision of MEK's qualified person under NI-43-101,
Wayne Reid, P.Geo. Quadro has not verified the data and have relied on the information provided in that
press release.
