Cancor confirms massive sulfide lenses on Explo-Zinc18 November 2006
Cancor Mines Inc. is pleased to announce that it has completed 3 drill holes on the Explo-Zinc massive sulphide deposit on its Kistabiche property. These three holes, in compliance with NI-43-101 confirmed the historical grades of the 3 main known massive sulphide lenses (A, B, and B1), and also provided representative samples for the purpose of metallurgical and rock mechanics testing. A feasibility study of this deposit is currently underway. The analytical results of the three surveys are shown in the following table: << ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hole Lens From To Width Width Zn % Ag Cu % (m) (m) (m) (ft) g/t ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 06-11 B 83.00 92.50 9.50 31.16 14.61 51.50 0.34 06-12 A 86.15 91.75 5.60 18.37 6.40 7.50 0.01 A 96.50 109.85 13.35 43.79 5.74 16.30 0.12 B 47.60 164.35 16.75 54.94 4.09 10.40 0.03 B1 246.20 280.40 34.20 112.18 5.25 17.80 0.26 Including 246.20 254.65 8.45 27.72 12.71 29.90 0.30 06-13 A 132.30 137.30 5.00 16.40 16.16 22.90 0.06 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- >> The Kistabiche property covers an area of 2,832 hectares. Located near Joutel, in the Matagami sector of the Abitibi region, the property is the site of the EXPLO-ZINC polymetallic deposit, which was discovered in 1963 by Consolidated Northern Exploration. A new geological resource calculation compliant with NI 43-101 is underway and to be released soon. This property, easily accessible by road, already has underground infrastructure including a 389-meter deep shaft and drifts on three levels. At production stage a custom milling operation is planned at existing mills in the region. Quality control: the drilling program was conducted under the supervision of Mr. P. Girard, Eng., Ph.D., and Mr. Michel Lacey, both consulting geologists to Cancor and qualified persons as defined by National Instrument 43-101. The samples that were analyzed were from the drilling core, at lengths varying from 0.5 to 1.5 metres. They were sent to ALS Chemex laboratory in Val d'Or, Quebec for analysis by pyro-analysis, atomic absorption or gravimetry, according to industry standards.
