- Globex (GMX) provided an update on drilling by Maple Gold Mines (MGM) on the Eagle Mine property
- The new drill results support earlier interpretations that gold mineralization occurs over multiple sub-parallel horizons over a stratigraphic thickness of more than 100 metres
- The team identified a potential southern splay of the main mine horizon, northwest of the past-producing Eagle mine in an area targeted for follow-up drilling

Globex (GMX) provided an update on drilling by Maple Gold Mines (MGM) on the Eagle Mine property.
Under option from Globex, Maple announced the final results from five follow-up holes from the project, located in Québec.
The new drill results support earlier interpretations that gold mineralization occurs over multiple sub-parallel horizons over a stratigraphic thickness of more than 100 metres. The team identified a potential southern splay of the main mine horizon, northwest of the past-producing Eagle mine in an area targeted for follow-up drilling.
Highlights:
- Drill hole EM-22-015 intersected 10.3 g/t gold (Au) over 7.8 metres, including 41.1 g/t Au over 1.0 metre in the North Mine Horizon
- Further up-hole, EM-22-015 intersected 4.3 g/t Au over 3.9 metres, including 6.6 g/t Au over 2.0 metres, leading the team to believe that the North Mine Horizon is wider than what was previously interpreted
- The EM-22-015 intercepts are located down-plunge from historical high-grade, near-surface drill results from a geologically similar hole (E-19: 19.6 g/t Au over 7.9 metres, as well as 17.5 g/t Au over 5.6 metres further up-hole) in an area with limited drilling that remains open further down-plunge
- EM-22-015 has now returned seven separate intercepts over a 120-metre interval starting from 142.5 metres downhole
Maple Gold’s CEO, Matthew Hornor, stated that drill results continue to support the company’s view that multiple sub-parallel gold horizons exist beyond what was historically mined at Eagle and have expanded our target areas along a broader mineralized corridor over a stratigraphic thickness that now exceeds 100 metres in width.
“There is an apparent concentration of more than 10 g/t gold starting near surface and extending down-plunge to the EM-22-015 intercepts along the North Mine Horizon in an area with limited drilling that remains open further down-plunge. This represents just one of several compelling follow-up targets that we are excited to pursue in 2023.”
