VANCOUVER, BC  / September 8, 2021 / GATLING EXPLORATION INC. (TSXV:GTR)(OTCQB:GATGF) (the "Company" or "Gatling) reports solid preliminary results from metallurgical testing of samples collected from each of the three gold deposits on its 100% owned Larder Gold Project in Larder Lake, Ontario. Combined gravity and standard cyanide extraction methods returned initial recoveries between 81% and 92% for the three deposits, with the highest-grade deposit, Bear, exhibiting the highest initial recovery results. Reports from the early 1990's indicated gold recoveries up to 94% from the Cheminis deposit, and Gatling will be investigating multiple flowsheet options to further optimize total gold recoveries in future metallurgical testwork across all three deposits.

 

Preliminary Metallurgical Testing Results

 

Three 30-35 kg representative composite samples were selected from material contained in each deposit. Samples were selected by Gatling from multiple holes that demonstrate the typical style of mineralization of each zone. Samples were then sealed and transported to SGS Minerals laboratory facilities in Lakefield, Ontario. The testing included gold determination by screened metallic assay protocol, BWI index, gravity recoverable gold and bottle roll cyanidation testing. Highlights include the following:

 

Bottle roll cyanidation of the gravity tailings resulted in total combined gold extractions in the 81% to 92% range with significant optimization potential for all three deposits through subsequent phases of testwork (Table 1).

Fernland Total Gold Recovery 88.3 %

Cheminis Total Gold Recovery 80.8 %

Bear Total Gold Recovery 91.9 %

Val-d'Or, Quebec--(September 8, 2021) - Bonterra Resources Inc. (TSXV: BTR) (OTCQX: BONXF) (FSE: 9BR2) ("Bonterra" or the "Company") is pleased to announce results from the ongoing drilling campaign at the Barry project. Recent drilling results expand upon the northeast sector of the Barry deposit near surface and at depth (Figures 1 and 2). The latest results encompass 13 diamond drill holes designed to expand the 2021 mineral resource estimate ("2021 MRE") released in June (see press release dated June 23, 2021). Drilling highlights include 16.5 g/t grams-per-tonne gold ("g/t Au") over 2.7 metres ("m") in a new zone named H16, immediately northeast of the 2021 MRE.

 

The Company is currently drilling at a rate of approximately 6,000 m per month, focused on its main gold deposits to expand upon the recently released 2021 MREs. In addition, work on the preliminary economic assessment ("PEA"), which would utilize the existing Bachelor Mill as a central processing facility is ongoing and is expected to be completed in Q4 2021.

TORONTO, Sept. 07, 2021 -- Osisko Mining Inc. (OSK:TSX. "Osisko" or the "Corporation") is pleased to provide new analytical results from the ongoing drill program at its 100% owned Windfall gold project located in the Abitibi greenstone belt, Urban Township, Eeyou Istchee James Bay, Québec.

 

Significant new analytical results presented below include 142 intercepts in 32 drill holes (16 from surface, 16 from underground) and 24 wedges. The infill intercepts are located inside defined February 2021 mineral resource estimate (“MRE”) blocks (see Osisko news release dated February 17,2021). The expansion intercepts are located outside the February 2021 MRE blocks and either expand resource wireframes or are in a defined zone or corridor but do not yet correlate to a specific wireframe.

 

Osisko Chief Executive Officer John Burzynski commented: “Windfall continues to deliver high-grade intercepts, especially in the Lynx and Underdog zones. Infill drilling has consistently delivered throughout our drill campaign, which is winding down this fall as we approach the completion of our drilling for the feasibility study next year. The great potential for growth at Windfall continues to be demonstrated by new high-grade intercepts located outside the February 2021 resource blocks.

Highlights from the Deeper (Eastern) High Grade Zone include:

 

102.07 g/t Au over 6.10 m, including 822.49 g/t Au over 0.60 m, for a metal factor of 623 at a vertical depth of approximately 870 m in hole PE-21-386W1;

29.62 g/t Au over 8.40 m, including 333.42 g/t Au over 0.50 m, for a metal factor of 249 at a vertical depth of approximately 1,120 m in hole PE-21-318;

37.59 g/t Au over 6.20 m, including 356.58 g/t Au over 0.50 m, for a metal factor of 233 at a vertical depth of approximately 1,070 m in hole PE-21-287;

17.01 g/t Au over 7.40 m, including 136.18 g/t Au over 0.75 m, for a metal factor of 126 at a vertical depth of approximately 500 m in hole PE-21-360;

10.21 g/t Au over 7.40 m, including 109.53 g/t Au over 0.60 m, for a metal factor of 76 at a vertical depth of approximately 660 m in hole PE-21-360W1;
