Field work in progress on the Gold Aquilon Property,
Eeyou Istchee James Bay region, Quebec
Montreal (Quebec) – The management of Sirios Resources Inc. (TSX-V: SOI) is pleased to announce
the execution of field work on the Aquilon gold property located in Eeyou Istchee James Bay, Quebec, in
partnership with Sumitomo Metal Mining Canada Ltd. (Sumitomo). Mechanical stripping, mapping,
channel sampling of outcrop, as well as rehabilitation of old trenches will be carried out over the next
three weeks on targets resulting from the soil geochemical sampling survey (B horizon) completed last
June. Most of these new targets, with a general north-south orientation, are in the western portion of the
property, an area distinct from the one containing the main gold showings previously identified
This exploration program will help define drill targets that will be ready to be tested in early 2025.
This ongoing exploration program is funded by Sumitomo, with Sirios as the operator. Sumitomo has the
option to acquire up to an 80% interest in the Aquilon project by making an investment of $14.8M (ref.
press release of 12/19/2022).
