After drilling seven holes, Petrolympic (PCQ) released assay results from 1,092 metres on the southern block of its Belcourt property in Abitibi, Quebec.

The property is in a favourable geological context for gold and base-metal mineralization within felsic to intermediate volcanic rocks underlain by an important structural corridor and is surrounded by numerous precious and base metal deposits.

The most significant intersections were:

  • BE-22-01: 1.49g/t Au over 5.4 metres (including7.02 g/t Au over 0.9 of a metre)
  • BE-22-02: 0.71g/t Au over 3 metres (including1.43g/t Au over 1 metre)
  • BE-22-04: 2.2 g/t Au over 1.3 metre and 3.13g/t Au over 3 metres (including7.29g/t Au over 1 metre)

  • BE-22-06:6.5 g/t Au over 0.5of a metre and 1.3 g/t Au over 2.5 metres in Zone 1 and 1.3  g/t Au over2.0 metres in Zone 2

The company added that these gold occurrences, the favourable geological context, and the mineralizations discovered in the vicinity all support further exploration efforts in the Belcourt property.

A program that is being developed that will include a high definition heliborne magnetometric survey followed by biogeochemical, prospection, mapping, and sampling surveys on selected priority areas.
