Sirios expands its 39 property in the area of Azimut’s Elmer gold
discovery
MONTREAL, QUEBEC-- SIRIOS RESOURCES INC. (TSX-V:SOI) is pleased to
announce that it recently applied by map designation for 150 new mining claims in order
to expand its 39 gold property. Once the claims are granted, the property will increase to
189 claims, for a total area of approximately 100 km2. The southwest limit of the 39
property will be located less than 5 km northeast of the Elmer gold property.
During the summer of 2019, prospecting work was carried out on the 39 property to
assess the gold potential of an interpreted northeast to southwest trending shear zone. A
much greater lithological diversi ty than mapped by the Quebec Ministry of Energy and
Natural Resources (MERNQ) was observed on the property, with the presence of a
variety of lithological units, including felsic volcanic rocks. A dditional prospecting was
recommended based on this previous work.
The 39 property was acquired by map designation in 2018 and is wholly owned by Sirios.
It is located about 30 km northwest of the km 381 relay station on the James Bay road
connecting Matagami to Radisson. The property borders the Munischiwan property of
Exploration Azimut and SOQUEM to the southwest, where pr ospecting results yielded
up to 100.5 g/t Au, 435.0 g/t Ag, and 156.0 g/t Te and 1.67% Cu from grab samples (ref.
Azimut press release of June 27, 2019).
Sirios focuses mainly on its Cheechoo gold discovery while actively exploring the
auriferous potential of the Eeyou Istchee James Bay area in Quebec.
